The Tennessee Titans (7-6) are on the road to take on the Los Angeles Chargers (7-6) Sunday at 4:25 p.m. ET (CBS). Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Titans vs. Chargers odds, and make our expert NFL picks and predictions.
The Titans have struggled in their last 3 games, having been outscored 91-48 in losses to the Cincinnati Bengals, Philadelphia Eagles and Jacksonville Jaguars. They now head to Los Angeles to take on a Chargers team coming off a 23-17 victory against the Miami Dolphins.
Chargers QB Justin Herbert threw 51 passes against the Dolphins and the Chargers will attempt to pass its way past a Titans defense that has been much better against the run than against the pass.'The Chargers are finally healthy having WRs Mike Williams and Keenan Allen back. Their presence along with RB Austin Ekeler in the run and pass game will be a lethal combination for the Chargers.
For the Titans, Derrick Henry needs to get back on track after averaging less then 4 yards per carry in each of the last 4 games. The Chargers and their last ranked run defense will be a matchup the Titans and Henry will look to exploit. If they can do so, this game could remain close, and the Titans could get back on the winning side. If Henry continues to struggle, the Chargers will pass all over the Titans and send them to a 4th straight loss.
