Titans are favorites in Week 5 on the road vs. Commanders

No surprise. The Titans are favorites over the Commanders in Week 5.

The Washington Commanders return home to FedEx Field to host the Tennessee Titans Sunday. The Commanders have lost three in a row, while the Titans have won two consecutive games.

What gives on Sunday?

According to Tipico Sportsbook, the Titans will enter Sunday’s game as 2.5-point favorites. That’s no surprise. Washington has been the underdog in its last four games.

Tennessee presents Washington’s struggling offense an opportunity to get back on track. However, everything starts up front. Can the Commanders protect quarterback Carson Wentz? Can Wentz make quick decisions with the football to avoid negative plays?

Defensively, these Titans aren’t going to scare you with the deep ball but instead feature the NFL’s premier running back, Derrick Henry. Henry has had his best two games in the last two weeks — both Tennessee wins — and stopping him will be Washington’s primary defensive goal.
