Find Hot Betting Trends That Favor the Tennessee Titans
The Tennessee Titans looked shaky early in the season, but in Week 8 they did have a shot to go 5-2 Straight Up. They were 4-2 Against The Spread entering Week 8. The Titans have been profitable for bettors coming into Week 8.
This one at Houston had opened at Titans -3.5 briefly at a few books but not long enough to prevent the game from fitting into a very hot trend that has games with a line of 3 to 2.5 without going over the 3 with a record of 17-3 for the favorites.
There was a wrench thrown into the mix Saturday afternoon as news broke that Ryan Tannehill would not be playing against the Houston Texans.
In his place, rookie quarterback Malik Willis, formerly of the Liberty Flames.
Prior to suffering a stomach bug this week, Tannehill had started 49 consecutive games for the Titans, a franchise record for quarterbacks.
The good news for those who had the Titans with Tannehill starting, there was a 4-point underlay with the -3 point line favoring Tennessee. That means the line should have been -7 originally.
Oddsmakers must have Tannehill worth 4 points as the Titans were now a +1 road dog.
Some highlights of Willis' career include throwing six touchdowns against Southern Mississippi and he was named MVP of the 2020 Cure Bowl and the 2021 LendingTree Bowl.
The away team is 5-1 Straight Up in this series. The Titans have won four of the last five meetings.
The Titans so far are 4-0 Against The Spread as a favorite of between -2.5 and -3.5. Should they win this Sunday, that record would improve to 5-0 even with the Titans becoming a +1 dog on Saturday afternoon.
