Betting on the Tennessee Titans (3-3)
The Tennessee Titans exploded offensively in their Monday night showdown against divisional foes Colts, as quarterback Marcus Mariota returned from injury and led them to a 36-22 win. The Titans did take awhile to get the points going, but when the team finally gelled together, it was sensational to watch. The Titans exploded for 21 points in the fourth quarter and made a statement on why they might win the division.
Quarterback Marcus Mariota finished the game with 306 passing yards with one touchdown and one interception. With missing week 5 action, the 23-year old quarterback has now totaled over 1,000 yards passing with four touchdowns and four interceptions.
Running back Derick Henry came through with his best performance of the season in the win, accumulating 131 yards on 19 carries. The 23-year old running back has now registered 318 rushing yards on the season and gives the Titans a solid duo at running back with DeMarco Murray.
Betting on the Cleveland Browns (0-6)
The Cleveland Browns are still waiting to get their first victory of the season as in their Week 6 matchup against the Texans they were both out performed offensively and defensively. In the 33-17 road loss to the Texans, Quarterback Kevin Hogan got the start in place of the struggling DeShone Kizer as he completed 20 of his 37 passes for 140 yards with one touchdown and three interceptions.
It is hard to stay positive about this Cleveland Browns team as the leader of the offense is continue to make mistake after mistake. Even though Hogan took charge of the offense last week, the Browns will be giving Kizer another chance as he will start against the Titans. Kizer does have more mobility in the pocket, but patience is key for this young quarterback.
The Browns running game did rush for a solid 134 yards against the Texans tough defense last week with Isaiah Crowell leading the way with 58 yards. The 24-year old running back is slowly getting the ball going with, recording 252 rushing yards, and is only averaging 3.4 yards per carry after averaging 4.8 last season.
Writer’s Prediction:
It is hard to pick against an offensive that is extremely dangerous as the Browns have yet to show why they deserve to receive their first win of the season. Pick: Titans (-6)
