I would much rather bet on Tennessee against Cleveland than Washington against Philly. Mariota for me.

I like Mariota's matchup better... but if he is not mobile will Cleveland have picked up on that from last game and be able to defend it better?

I think Cousins will be forced to throw the ball, and Eagles pass defense is not the best either.

I might pick Cousins here cause we know he is 100% healthy... Mariota might not be there yet.

I also think this is a close call. But I'll go with Cousins here.

It wouldn't surprise me if the Titans/Browns game gets out of hand in favor of the Titans, and TEN chooses in the second half to grind the clock, nurse the lead, and protect a likely still not 100% Mariota from taking unnecessary abuse.

I doubt the same is true in the Skins/Eagles game. Rather, I'd expect that to be competeive throughout or, at worst, Washington being in comeback mode as the game wears on. That favors Cousins having to throw the ball. Further, even if they're up, I'm not sure WAS has the personnel to consistently and successfully grind the clock on the ground against that Eagles front 7 if wanted to.

So I'll lean Cousins here.

I like Cousins here as well. I feel like Tenn is going to pound the run game vs Cleveland.

Mariota for me. I like the matchup better. I think his floor is safer too. Cousins on the road in a divisional contest does not inspire confidence.
