\nWe are used to viewing NFL action on Sundays? Well one Sunday match of the preseason in Week 3 and it’s going to be the last afternoon of Sunday NFL until Week 1 of the regular season. That is because all groups play Thursday of this exhibition program at Week 4. The Pittsburgh Steelers head to the Tennessee Titans to shut 3.
\nBoth missed the playoffs and finished with two wins regular season. The Titans could have maintained a Wild-Card place if they had won Week 17 at home vs. Indianapolis, but the Colts were certainly superior and rolled to a 33-17 victory. Starting Titans QB Marcus Mariota overlooked the game and Blaine Gabbert was awful in his place.
\nPittsburgh had also a Baltimore home loss to Cleveland and a Week 17 win over Cincinnati to choose the AFC North. Pittsburgh did its project with this franchise with a victory — without star receiver Antonio Brown in his final act of defiance. The Ravens and a 26-24 win over the Browns did not cooperate.
\nSteelers coach Mike Tomlin is a solid 30-22 within his preseason livelihood and 2-0 this season despite not enjoying starting QB Ben Roethlisberger. The Steelers played with their first two in your home, edging Tampa Bay 30-28 in Week 1 last week and then beating Kansas City 17-7. Going by the background of Tomlin, Big Ben must play with a little on Sunday. Joshua Dobbs and Mason Rudolph are competing for the copy job, with covering the Steelers thinking Rudolph is currently top.
\nTitans coach Mike Vrabel is 1-1 this year — Tennessee has yet to acquire a house exhibition game in both seasons. The Titans were Week 1 winners from Philadelphia 27-10 and subsequently dropped 22-17 at home to New England but led most of the match. It was won by A late TD pass . Could although the Titans crime and mariota has played four series thus far the first half of this one.
\nTop running back Derrick Henry has to play in the preseason due to a calf injury but did come back this week to practice. If that means he might go in this one, not clear. No. 1 tight end Delanie Walker broke his arm in Week 1 last year and had not played until last week vs. the Patriots. He even caught a TD pass from Mariota. The Titans’ offense just isn’t the same with Walker, the greatest tight end in business history. Meanwhile, Mariota’s backup Ryan Tannehill was great this preseason having a 130.8 passer rating, completing 19 of 27 for 214 yards. Some believe he might slip the job from Mariota at any stage this season.
\nThese teams played Pittsburgh but although in Week 3, in addition at the 2018 preseason. The Steelers won 16-6. Big Ben, which makes his preseason debut of’18, was 11-for-18 for 114 yards and a touchdown in three series. Mariota did not play with a ton and was 5-for-8 for 43 yards and a selection. He missed wide-open Corey Davis for what could have been a touchdown on the opening drive of Tennessee.
\nAs I’m certain they’d like to end that home preseason losing series, we’ll take the Titans here .<\/p>\n
