Will the Tennessee Titans make the 2020 NFL playoffs?

Yes: -139 | No: +115

The Titans made a surprising run to the playoffs last season after benching QB Marcus Mariota for Ryan Tannehill. There will be no quarterback controversy this year, though, with Mariota gone and Tannehill signed to an extension.

That in itself will help Tennessee entering 2020, as will another year of experience for coach Mike Vrabel. The Titans play in arguably the weakest division in the NFL, too. The Jacksonville Jaguars look like the worst team in the league, the Indianapolis Colts now have QB Philip Rivers, but they’re not a team that will likely contend for a Super Bowl.

Meanwhile, the Titans should march back to the postseason in 2020 on the back of RB Derrick Henry and a defense that should be even better. YES (-139) IS THE BET HERE, especially with an additional playoff spot in each conference.

How many games will the Tennessee Titans win in 2020? Bands

BAND ODDS
0-4 Wins +2500
5-8 Wins -110
9-12 Wins -110
13-16 Wins +3500

Based on our thinking that the Titans will make the playoffs next season, they’ll likely have to win at least nine games. Although the 5-8 band has the same odds as 9-12 WINS, we’re going with the latter for Tennessee.

The Titans should be guaranteed two wins against the Jaguars, and at the very least should split two games apiece with the Houston Texans and Colts. That’s four wins right there, with the Cincinnati Bengals, Cleveland Browns, Detroit Lions and Denver Broncos also looking like winnable games.

It’s not exactly the easiest schedule for the Titans, but it’s one that should yield them nine-plus wins. The bet here is 9-12 WINS (-110).

How many games will the Tennessee Titans win in 2020? Exact number

The Titans have gone 9-7 in each of the last four seasons. They haven’t won double-digit games since 2008, but it’s certainly possible for them to reach that number in 2020.

Unsurprisingly, 9 WINS (+285) is the favorite among exact totals at BetMGM, and that’s the bet we’re making. The Titans aren’t going to go 13-3 unless Tannehill becomes an elite quarterback, but their schedule has enough winnable games to get them to 9-7 again.
