Prediction
Titans 31, Raiders 17
Moneyline (?)
The Raiders (+120) are in a freefall while the Titans (-143) are playing their best ball of the season and making a run at the playoffs. Take the TITANS (-143) even though a $10 bet on the road team would net a $6.99 profit.
Against the Spread (?)
The Titans are favored at -2.5 (-121). The Raiders have failed to cover the spread in their last three games, while the Titans have covered three games in a row. Potentially without Jacobs, Oakland will struggle offensively. Give the points and take the TITANS -2.5 (-121).
Over/Under (?)
The total is set at 46.5 points. Titans games have hit the over six straight times. But Oakland has hit the under in three straight games. This will be close but Tennessee’s offense combined with the points the Raiders are giving up will get the total there. Take the OVER 46.5 (-110).
