• The Buccaneers have played well in their last three games as the betting favorite, going 2-1 straight up and 2-1 against the spread.

Titans vs Buccaneers Prediction

Even though the Titans are the 1-point underdogs on the road, I like them to cover the spread against the Buccaneers. In their last game, the Buccaneers defense struggled to get off the field, giving up 26 first-downs. Look for the Titans offense to take advantage of facing a struggling defense.

Not only does our model have a projected total of 41 points in this matchup, but the eye test has me feeling this line of 38.5 is low. I like Tennessee and Tampa Bay to exceed 38.5 points.
