TITANS +3.5 (-120) at Browns – 1 p.m. (CBS)
The Browns lost RB Nick Chubb for the season and QB Deshaun Watson has not looked good thus far this season.
The Titans have played 2 close games, losing by 1 point and winning by 3. They have allowed an average of only 65 rushing yards per game. The Browns have averaged 202 yards rushing a game but without Chubb and facing a tough rushing defense, it will be hard to do much offensively.
With both teams relying on the run game and their defenses, expect this to be slow, low-scoring and close.

Eagles at BUCCANEERS +4.5 (-105) – Monday 7:15 p.m. (ABC)
The Bucs are a surprising 2-0 and are allowing only 54.0 rushing yards per game. Plus, Bucs QB Baker Mayfield has not thrown an interception yet.
The Eagles have relied on the run game (178.0 yards per game) as QB Jalen Hurts has not been as good in the pass game. The Eagles have allowed 24.0 points per game through 2 weeks.
Tampa’s defense should keep this game close.
RAMS (+125) at Bengals – Monday, 8:15 p.m. (ESPN)
QB Joe Burrow has not been good. He is averaging only 4.2 yards per passing attempt, having arguably the best trio of receivers in the league. He is also not 100%, dealing with a calf injury.
The Rams have been better than expected through 2 games. Even without WR Cooper Kupp, QB Matthew Stafford has over 300 passing yards in each game. Rookie WR Puka Nacua has 24 receptions for 266 yards in 2 games.
The Rams are No. 2 in the league in total offense. The Bengals are last.
