After a dismal 2-4 start, the Tennessee Titans have completely turned their season around with Ryan Tannehill at quarterback.
This week, the 8-5 teams faces the division rival Houston Texans, who boast the same record.
Whichever team comes out with the win will also have the top spot in the AFC South heading into next week.
The Titans are favored by a point spread of (-2.5) heading into the contest on a four-game winning streak.

The Texans lost their most recent game, falling 38-24 to the Denver Broncos at home.
The defense failed to get the job done, and was carved up by Broncos quarterback Drew Lock.
It won’t get any easier for the Texans on Sunday, facing a hot Tannehill who has only lost one game as a starter for the Titans, completing 73.4% of his passes for 1,993 yards with 15 touchdowns and five interceptions in that time span.
He had a big game in last week’s 42-21 win over the Raiders, 21-of-27 passing for 391 yards with three touchdowns and one interception.
