On Thursday night at 8:25pm ET, the Tennessee Titans (2-7) will be on the road to take on the Jacksonville Jaguars (3-6).
“The Crowd” projects a final score of Jaguars 23 – Titans 22 with an over/under of 44.8. The Jaguars enter the game with the fourth worst point differential in the NFL (-63). The Titans, by comparison, have a point differential of (-45). The Jaguars’ offense ranks 22nd in yards per game (343.7) and 23rd in points scored (192). They will be up against a Titans defense that rank fifth in fewest yards allowed per game (326.1) but are tied for 18th in fewest points allowed (214).
The Titans’ offense ranks 30th in yards per game (321.6) and 28th in points scored (169). The Jaguars’ defense ranks 19th in fewest yards allowed per game (362.1) and 29th in fewest points allowed (255). The Titans are tied for the second-worst turnover margin in the NFL (-8) but the Jaguars (-4) aren’t much better. In a battle of two bad teams, I think the Jaguars steal a victory at home in a close game.
PREDICTION: Jaguars 23, Titans 21
