Tennessee needs cleaner scoring drives

Tennessee's 27-24 loss to Cleveland highlighted the need for cleaner scoring drives; red-zone execution could determine whether the Titans keep Cincinnati close.

Pollard remains a scoring threat

Pick Ideas

Titans +10.5

If +10.5 remains available, Tennessee is the points-side lean rather than laying Cincinnati's full number; a Titans teammate's absence has increased Tony Pollard's expected workload.

Under 47

Lean under at 47 or higher, but pass if the number drops substantially; this remains a cautious, low-conviction total play.

Shop the spread and total

Recent listings have shown Cincinnati around -10.5 and totals at 46.5–47, so compare books rather than chase a worse number.
