Cons

The Titans are a 3.5-point favorite in this week’s game, which points towards a rushing game script.
The Tennessee Titans have called the least plays in the NFL this year, averaging just 52.8 plays per game.
The Tennessee Titans have been faced with a stacked the box on 26.4% of their plays since the start of last season, 2nd-most in the NFL. Positioning an extra defender close to the line of scrimmage improves run-stopping at the expense of better passing efficiency.
