Titans, Chargers face off with AFC playoff implications
Associated PressTENNESSEE at LOS ANGELES CHARGERS Sunday, 4:25 p.m. EST, CBS FANDUEL SPORTSBOOK NFL LINE: Chargers by 3. TITANS PLAYER TO WATCH: WR Treylon Burks missed last week’s loss in concussion protocol, and his return would provide a much-needed counterpoint to RB Derrick Henry. The Titans are trying to snap a three-game skid, their first since Weeks 5-7 in coach Mike Vrabel’s debut season in 2018.. Henry has six 100-yard rushing games this season, tied for most in the NFL with Nick Chubb of Cleveland and Las Vegas’ Josh Jacobs. The Titans have won four straight and are 4-1 under Vrabel in games played in the Mountain or Pacific time zones.. A win Sunday would give the Titans a fourth straight season with at least five road victories, which would be the longest streak in franchise history.. Rookies have played 105 games this season for Tennessee, fourth most in the NFL.. Chargers QB Justin Herbert continues to pile up the records. He needs 22 completions to top Matthew Stafford for most through 50 games, 294 yards to make Herbert the first with three 4,000-yard passing seasons, and three touchdowns to pass Dan Marino for most combined touchdowns through three seasons.. After years of struggles in the kicking game, Los Angeles has been outstanding this season, making 25 of 27 field goals and all 30 extra-point attempts.. RB Austin Ekeler leads the league with 746 yards after the catch, which puts into context the 623 yards he has gained on 93 receptions this season..
