The Indianapolis Colts look to build on last Sunday's huge win over the Chiefs when they host their AFC North division rivals, the Tennessee Titans on Sunday afternoon. The Colts are 1-1-1 on the season while the Titans are 1-2. The Titans have won 6 of the last 10 head to head matchups over the Colts including a 34-31 overtime win last season. The Colts are favored by 3.5 points.
The Tennessee Titans got in the win column last weekend for the first time, as they scored a 24-22 win over the Raiders as a two point underdog. The Titans led 24-10 at halftime and almost let it slip away in the second half, but held on for a 24-22 win. The Titans were outgained by the Raiders and had 5 fewer first downs, but they were more efficient on third down conversions, converting 5 of 10. Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill was perfectly average, going 19 for 27 for 264 yards and a touchdown with 1 interception.

The Titans workhorse back Derrick Henry had his best game this season with 85 yards rushing and a touchdown on 4.2 yards per carry. He also caught five passes for 58 yards. One thing that has coming to light is the offense misses AJ Brown on the outside. The receiving corps are very thin as the leading target is veteran Robert Woods, who had 4 catches for 85 yards. The defense has been pretty soft too, as the Titans give up 28 points per game, which is 29th in the NFL. The defense has been really hurt by injuries with several linebackers out. They rank 29th against the run.
