FS Tebucky Jones vs. WR Derrick Mason
Both teams limp into their Week 3 game missing key players with others trying to play banged up. Eddie George is averaging a pathetic 2.5 yards per carry so far this year, putting much more pressure on the Titans passing game. But that part of the offense is a one-trick pony as Derrick Mason has caught 20 of the team's 47 receptions. With Steve McNair banged up, he can't carry the team like he did last year. He did not have a single rushing attempt last week for the first time in his career. Tight end Frank Wycheck is still out with a concussion, and none of the other receivers have stepped up to take the pressure off Mason. Expect the Saints to double cover Mason constantly with free safety Tebucky Jones, one of the better cover safeties around. It's hard to imagine how the Titans will move the ball once that happens.
