Pollard posted 50%+ rushing success vs. Eagles; Daboll's adjustments signal RB upside.

Pollard posted his first rushing success rate at or above 50.0% against a solid rushing defense (Philadelphia) since Week 3 of last season. The source credits HC Brian Daboll's game-planning adjustments for Week 2 against Philadelphia, including increased pre-snap motion (45.7% to 63.6%), higher under-center passing rate (8.6% to 27.3%), and a shift in PROE from +5.4% to -20.1%. These adjustments allowed the Titans to average over 25 yards per drive for the first time since playing the Mahomes-less Chiefs, suggesting Pollard could benefit from favorable matchups in Weeks 4-9.
