Titans at Jaguars odds, lines, predictions and picks

Prediction

Jaguars 27, Titans 20

Money line

Slight “LEAN” to the JAGUARS (+170) for a tiny wager, if at all, because I’m going to take Jacksonville plus the points and see value in the underdog’s money line.

This is more of a fade against the Titans, who rank 22nd in third-down conversion and 26th in red zone conversion rate, even though RB Derrick Henry is one of the best running backs in the NFL and Tennessee averages the seventh-most yards per rush.

Jacksonville has a sneaky good defense and could be in good shape against Tennessee’s banged-up offensive line. The Jaguars are fifth in yards per rush allowed (3.5) and have the best average explosive rushing rate, according to Sharp Football Stats.

Over the past three seasons, Henry has trampled Jacksonville’s defense in the second Titans-Jaguars meetings but underwhelmed in their first encounter. Given Tennessee’s injuries along the offensive line and Jacksonville’s relatively clean injury report, I like the Jaguars to minimize Henry’s impact.

Against the spread

Definitely BET the JAGUARS +4.5 (-112) heavier than or instead of their money line.

There’s been some significant “reverse line movement” (RLM) in the betting market. The Titans opened as 7.5-point favorites but have been steamed down to the current price despite getting nearly 60% of the action, according to Pregame.com at the time of writing. It’s a red flag whenever sportsbooks make the more popular side cheaper.

Over/Under

PASS with a slight “lean” to the Under 48.5 (-105) because there’s heavy RLM with the total as well. Titans-Jaguars opened with a 52-point total but has been brought down even though more than 60% of the handle is on the Over.

Also, the best part of both offenses is their ground games and the best part of both defenses is stopping the run. I expect each team to try establishing the run and we’ll see if either finds success.

What’s keeping me away from betting the Under is we are getting by far the worst of the number and all the value is gone.
