Eagles at Titans: Week 2 betting outlook ends in a pass
Philadelphia's opening win offers encouragement, but personnel concerns and limited early evidence leave both the side and total without a convincing wager.
Opening results offer only a starting point
The Philadelphia Eagles visit the Tennessee Titans at Nissan Stadium on September 20 in Week 2 of the 2026 NFL season. Philadelphia enters 1-0 after beating Washington 24-22; Tennessee is 0-1 following a 23-10 loss to the Jets.
Jalen Hurts threw three touchdowns in Philadelphia's opener, including two to Dallas Goedert. Tennessee's Cam Ward completed 19 of 32 passes for 140 yards and one touchdown. The Titans also surrendered 152 rushing yards and two rushing touchdowns. Those results give Philadelphia an encouraging comparison, but one game per team provides limited support for projecting a seven-point margin.
Personnel complicates the favorite's case
Philadelphia begins its road schedule with left guard Landon Dickerson on injured reserve and his replacement role unsettled. The Eagles' preview identifies Tennessee defensive tackle Jeffery Simmons as a significant matchup concern and acknowledges that Philadelphia too often fell behind schedule on first down against Washington.
The Eagles ruled edge defender Jonathan Greenard out and listed safety Andrew Mukuba as questionable. Jalen Carter and Cooper DeJean were available, providing counterweight to those defensive concerns. Tennessee's final report listed Cedric Gray, James Williams Sr. and Cor'Dale Flott as questionable. Those designations do not establish that they will miss the game.
