The Tennessee Titans and Las Vegas Raiders will meet in Week 3 for a game that is about as crucial as one can get this early in the season. Tennessee and Las Vegas both sit at 0-2 and in the cellar of their own divisions.
For the Titans, their best path is likely through the division. The AFC South is a total dumpster fire to start the season and remains wide open to the team that can take it.
The Raiders aren’t as fortunate. They are part of arguably the best division in the NFL and will have a difficult time making up ground throughout the course of the season.
Their best bet might be through the wild card, and even that is daunting in a loaded conference.
Much of the talk this week from the Raiders has been about Derrick Henry. Here’s what Las Vegas had to say about him and the rest of the team they’ll face in Week 3.
