Patriots vs. Titans Odds
Game Preview
The Pats are on the rise, and this team definitely has potential for reaching the playoffs. What characterizes New England is their balanced game on both ends of the field, with the attack and defense both being above-average. Vrabel’s guys have 3 straight wins, with the previous two on the road: 23-20 in Buffalo and 25-19 in New Orleans.
QB Drake Maye really looks well, as the 23-year-old recorded 1,522 passing yards so far for 10 touchdowns and only two picks. However, the evolution of his game was particularly noticeable over the last weeks when he had several top-notch passes.
Head coach Brian Callahan was fired on Monday, because his Titans opened the year 1-5. It wasn’t that much about the record, but the fact that No.1 draft pick Cam Ward isn’t developing correctly. At least that’s how we understood their explanation.
Ward had 222 passing yards in a 20-10 loss to the Raiders, with one TD pass and one pick. He was sacked 6 times, and honestly, his protection this season is very poor. Another terrible aspect of the Titans’ game was their running, with the team gaining only 65 yards on the ground. Is this Callahan’s or management’s mistake? We’ll see.
Patriots vs. Titans Head to Head
The two sides met 46 times, with the Pats having 26 wins, Titans 19 and one game finished with a tie.
Patriots vs. Titans Predictions
Whoever takes over the Titans won’t have too high chances to beat the Pats on Sunday. Vrabel and the guys have tremendous momentum, playing well on both sides and looking very consistent and confident. That’s why the final pick is to bet on the Pats.
