Chiefs at Titans odds, lines, predictions and picks

Prediction

Titans 34, Chiefs 30

Money line

The TITANS (+180) are worth a look on the money line for a chance to nearly double up your initial bet.

Tennessee has been getting tremendous production from RB Derrick Henry, who rushed for three touchdowns against Buffalo. He has 113 or more rushing yards across the past five outings, and he has 10 rushing TDs this season. The Chiefs (-230) are allowing 133.2 rushing yards per game, ranking 27th in the NFL. Kansas City’s struggles on defense will be the reason they fall against yet another marquee foe.

Against the spread

The TITANS +5.5 (-110) have had both WRs A.J. Brown and Julio Jones miss practice time this week, but with or without them, as long as Henry is healthy, Tennessee has a more than good chance of covering at home.

The Titans are 4-1 ATS across the past five games overall, including 2-0 ATS in two outings at home against Buffalo and Indianapolis. Expect more of the same here.

Over/Under

The OVER 57.5 (-110) is a bit risky, as this is an awfully high number. But like we saw in the MNF game for the Titans, it’s not high enough. We should see each of these teams get into the 30’s.

The Chiefs are still a fabulous pass team, and they’ll go to the air even more with RB Clyde Edwards-Helaire out indefinitely. The Titans struggle against the pass, yielding 276.3 passing yards per outing. That’s how Kansas City will get its points. The Titans will thrash them on the ground.

Underdog corner: 3 best NFL picks and predictions for Week 7

Assessing the NFL betting odds and lines for Week 7, with three predictions and picks for the best underdog bets to make.

Despite NFL pointspread favorites winning a second straight week, we still had a winning week here, going 2-1 with the Jacksonville Jaguars and Tennessee Titans coming through.

That’s now five winning weeks out of six as our season record moves to 13-5. Of our 13 underdog covers, 11 have won outright.

With six teams on a bye this week, it’s a shallow card to choose from, but come up with three we must. Here are our NFL underdog ATS picks and predictions of Week 7.

NFL underdog predictions: Week 7

Odds provided by Tipico Sportsbook; access USA TODAY Sports’ betting odds for a full list. Lines last updated Thursday at 5:56 a.m. ET.

Tennessee Titans +5.5 (-110) vs. Kansas City Chiefs

Over the last couple weeks:

  • The Buffalo Bills beat the Chiefs 38-20 as road underdogs in Week 5.
  • The Titans beat the Bills 34-31 as home underdogs in Week 6.
  • Now, the Chiefs are 5.5-point Week 7 road favorites over the Titans in Nashville?

An eye-catching line to be sure, but we’re not going to handicap a matchup going by results against a common foe alone.

However, the Chiefs have covered in only four of their last 17 games dating back to last season. In what should be a high-scoring affair Sunday, the mighty RB Derrick Henry and Tennessee should be able to keep it close going against a K.C. defense surrendering 133.2 rushing yards and 29.3 points per game and a league-most 6.7 yards per play.

Indianapolis Colts +4.5 (-115) at San Francisco 49ers

QB Carson Wentz and Indy started 0-3 but have won two of its last three. The loss was a 31-25 overtime setback in Week 5 on the road against the 5-1 Baltimore Ravens.

The Colts are 4-2 against the spread (ATS) – tied for fourth best in the league.

The 49ers (2-3) are coming off a bye and are expected to have QB Jimmy Garoppolo back from injury. Still, they are 1-4 ATS overall this year and 3-9 ATS as favorites since the start of last season.

The Niners very well could win Sunday night, but expect the improving Colts to keep it within the number.

Seattle Seahawks +4.5 (-110) vs. New Orleans Saints

In the 11 combined games involving the Saints and Seahawks this season, the underdogs have covered eight times with seven outright wins.

In addition, the home team has won all six Monday night games so far, going 5-1 ATS in process. So, Seattle was the choice to round out our underdog card.

We realize the Saints have had a bye week to prepare and the QB Geno Smith-led Seahawks are playing a second straight game without elite QB Russell Wilson.

But we’re banking on seeing more of the fight Seattle showed last week at the Pittsburgh Steelers – egged on this time by the always-raucous Seattle primetime crowd – and also one or two of the typical mistakes from Saints QB Jameis Winston to help the home team get the Monday night cover.
