Week 2 is here, and the Philadelphia Eagles need to keep the good times rolling against the Tennessee Titans.
Philly enters the game 1-0, coming off a nail-biting 24-22 win over the Washington Commanders in Week 1. As for the Titans, they suffered an embarrassing 23-10 loss to the New York Jets.
The Eagles hope to hold onto the momentum they built last week by pulling off another win. If these seven bold predictions happen, then Philly will be in good shape to take down the Titans. Here are the predictions Eagles fans hope will come true.
Bold predictions entering the Eagles-Titans Week 2 showdown
Jalen Hurts throws for over 300 yards against Titans again
Hurts nearly threw for 400 yards when the Eagles blew out the Titans 35-10 back in 2022. He may not throw for as many yards, but he will still hit over 300 and blow them out again. This time around, though, Hurts will also hurt them on the ground for over 50 yards.
Dontayvion Wicks ends up being the leading receiver with over 100 yards
drawWicks showed on his deep 64-yard completion that he can be a credible threat in this offense. With DeVonta Smost likely to command a lot of attention, watch for Wicks to lead the receiving corps, draw attention, and record his first-career 100-yard game with the Eagles. Maybe a nice touchdown catch as well will cap off a strong start to the season for him.
Hollywood Brown gets involved in Eagles' offense with 50+ yard completion
Brown did not play at all last week, but the Eagles will try to get him more involved this week. In fact, Eagles offensive coordinator Sean Mannion will call a deep shot to Brown, which will pay off with a 50+ yard completion. It may be his only catch of the game, but it could give Brown the confidence he needs moving forward.
Cooper DeJean redeems himself with an interception
DeJean had eight tackles and a quarterback hit in Week 1 but struggled in pass coverage because of an injury he suffered in the game. With time to heal this week, the All-Pro will bounce back, pick off Cam Ward, and regain his groove.
Jalyx Hunt leads the way with two sacks and eight pressures
Hunt had seven pressures last week and came close to getting some sacks. He'll get not one but two, and add eight pressures in the win. The Eagles know they have something special in Hunt, but this will solidify it.
Jake Elliott will hit two field goals from 50+ yards
Elliott has struggled over the last two years and needs a game where he does what he did earlier in his Eagles career. He will turn back the clock against the Titans and nail two long-distance field goals. That should restore Eagles fans' confidence if he can do it with relative ease.

Quinyon Mitchell breaks the streak and gets his first career interception
Mitchell has gone over two years without a regular season interception, but has four career interceptions in the postseason. This streak is bound to end at some point, and with the Titans on the calendar, it feels like it's time. Watch for Mitchell to get a pick for Philly, finally.
