Jets vs Titans Prediction

The current betting odds have the Titans listed as a 3.5 point underdog in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. The Titans have a 0-1 record this season after losing their season opener on the road and they had a really big collapse in that one. They were up 17-3 on the road against the Bears and found a way to lose the game in the 2nd half, losing 24-17 without the Bears scoring an offensive touchdown. The Titans did have some positives to take away from that game though, specifically in the 1st half, and they do have some talent on the offense that will be looking for redemption in this home opener. Meanwhile, the Jets are also 0-1 overall this season after losing on Monday night to the 49ers. They lost to a 49ers team that was in the Super Bowl last season, but the offense still didn't look great with Rodgers struggling. Rodgers will be looking to bounce back in this game, but now they are on a bit of a short week with that Monday night game and they will be on the road for their 2nd straight week. The Titans made some good plays on defense in week 1 and with the team back at home now, the offense will be looking to play a cleaner game too. The Titans may not win this game but they can keep it close enough to give the Jets a scare with this Jets team still trying to figure things out. The best way to place a bet here is on the Titans to cover the spread in this game.

Jets Titans Prediction:  Our NFL Pick for Sunday, September 15, 2024 (1:00 pm ET start time) is Jets 20 Titans 17.
