Why bet on Cincinnati versus Tennessee?

The Bengals have had just two stumbles in their last 8 games. The first happened in a close loss to the Baltimore Ravens. The second happened in an inexplicable Monday night defeat versus interstate rival Cleveland.

Save for the loss to the Browns, the Bengals have dominated, going 6-2 SU and 7-1 ATS in their last 8. After dropping the game to Cleveland, Cincinnati rallied to win 2 straight. Burrow should be licking his chops at the prospect of facing a banged up Titans secondary.

Why bet on Tennessee versus Cincinnati?

The Titans are one of the most consistent teams in the league. Tennessee leans on running back Derrick Henry, but by no means is Tennessee one-dimensional on offense.

Quarterback Ryan Tannehill threw for 333 yards and a pair of touchdowns versus Green Bay. If not for an overtime loss to Kansas City, Tennessee would be searching for their ninth straight win.

Cincinnati Bengals at Tennessee Titans Final Betting Prediction

The Titans haven’t just performed straight up, they’ve also performed well against the spread, going 8-0 in their last 8 games.

Tennessee even beat Kansas City against the spread in their lone loss in the last 8. The Titans’ record ATS is the first reason to back them to win and cover on Sunday.

The second reason is the fact that the Bengals allow 117.1 rushing yards per game on defense. The Titans can switch it up, Tannehill can go to the pass if the Bengals make Henry ineffective. Derrick is also a threat in the passing attack.

Any way we look at it, Tennessee is the team to back. The Titans not only cover but they beat the Bengals straight up.
