2. Delanie Walker vs. Myles Jack
This could be the key to the game right here, folks.
Delanie Walker is back, and it doesn’t look like the tight end has lost a step. Jacksonville Jaguars ILB Myles Jack is a heck of a player, but the swagger that Walker brings to the game is a mismatch.
Through two weeks, Walker has posted an 83.1 receiving grade per PFF, good for fourth-best in the league. What’s remarkable about that is that he managed to be a viable receiving threat and chip opposing defensive ends on the way to his routes.
The man is a freak of nature, and one of the greatest embodiments of a Titan in franchise history.
After the Titans beat the Browns 43-13, Delanie Walker channeled his inner-Dennis Green.

Jack possesses better speed than most ILBs and is the best option for the Jaguars in coverage. While this ability was a strong suit of his in college at UCLA — and has been so far in the pros — Jack hasn’t fared well so far this year, posting a 50.2 grade overall per PFF.
Granted, he faced the Kansas City Chiefs Week 1 and had to chase the league’s best TE, Travis Kelce, around, but I think Walker presents a similar challenge. Look for the Titans to try to exploit this.
