The best game of Week 13 is between 2 teams that play old school football
By Steve Risser
On Sunday, the 8–3 Titans play the 8–3 Browns. The Titans are currently in first place in the AFC South and the Browns hold the 5th seed in the AFC in an era of football with all these passing numbers these teams have gotten to 8 wins by being the 2 best rushing teams this year. First with the Titans, they continued to use the formula that got them to AFC Championship game last year and that is running the ball with Derrick Henry. Right now, Henry is an MVP Candidate he’s had a monster year rushing for a league leading 1,257 yards and 12 TD’s. Also, the Titans defense have played better the last couple of weeks especially against the run in the Ravens game, if you take away Jackson’s rushing yards. They held the Ravens to 78 rushing yards and last week they held the Colts to 56 rushing yards. Kevin Stefanski has done a great job this year and the biggest reason he has is because he has identified what the Browns are a team that needs to run the ball to have success. With Kareem Hunt and Nick Chubb, the Browns average 161 yards a game on the ground, which is first in the league and the Browns are 7–1 when their running backs run for over 100 yards. Cleveland also gets a huge lift on defense getting Myles Garrett back after he missed the last 2 weeks. For the game I think both teams continue to run the ball well, but the difference in this game is Ryan Tannehill and AJ Brown. They will make more plays in the passing game than Baker Mayfield and Jarvis Landry will and I got the Titans winning 31–24 over the Browns.
