Buffalo Bills at Tennessee Titans: 10/13/20 NFL Picks and Prediction

Defensively, Buffalo is allowing their opponents to average 25.0 ppg on 394.8 total yards per game (293.8 passing yds/g; 101.0 rushing yds/g).

The Tennessee Titans come into this game with a perfect 3-0 record, however, had to miss time last week due to a COVID-19 outbreak that saw multiples players and staff get affected. Prior to the outbreak, Titans stayed perfect by defeating the Minnesota Vikings, 31-30, in Week 3. Tennessee trailed early in the 4th quarter, however, was able to pull off the victory after back-to-back FG’s of 54 & 55 yards by Stephen Gostkowski over the final 6:31 of regulation gave the Titans the victory. Leading the way for the Titans was Derrick Henry who had 119 rushing yards & 2 TD’s in the victory.

On the season, Tennessee is averaging 26.7 ppg on 398.7 total yards per game (269.7 passing yds/g; 129.0 rushing yds/g). Offensively, Tennessee has been led by Derrick Henry who has 319 yards & 2 TD’s on 82 carries. QB Ryan Tannehill has completed 67.3% of his passes for 809 yards (281.3 passing yds/g), 6 TD, & 1 INT. The top receiving targets for the Titans have been Corey Davis (15 rec, 206 yards, TD), Jonnu Smith (13 rec, 181 yards, 3 TD), and Adam Humphries (15 rec, 136 yards, TD). Tennessee has been without A.J. Brown (5 rec, 39 yards) since Week 1 due to injury, however, he is expected to be ready to play against the Bills.

Defensively, Tennessee is allowing their opponents to average 24.7 ppg on 434.7 total yards per game (268.7 passing yds/g; 166.0 rushing yds/g).

The Bills are 8-3 SU in their last 11 games on the road, however, are just 2-4 ATS in their last six October games. The Titans are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games and just 7-13 ATS in their last 20 October games.

This will be a solid matchup as we have a battle of undefeated teams, however, it is going to be hard not to side with the Bills although they are favored on the road. Tennessee is a solid team, but I can’t say I’ve been overly impressed by the Titans this season as they won by just an average of 2.0 ppg agianst three very bad teams in Denver, Jacksonville, & Minnesota who are a combined just 3-9 on the season. Buffalo has been solid agianst the run which should limit Derrick Henry’s damage as Josh Allen has been playing like an MVP to start the season, I think the play here it to take Buffalo to cover. Good Luck!

Update (10/12) - The Titans didn't have any new test positive for COVID-19 yesterday so as of right now, this game is still on track to be played tomorrow night. As of right now the line is +3.5 Tennessee, and I'm still feeling that Buffalo is the play here as I'm just worried that the Titans come out a bit flat and rusty after having their last two weeks interrupted due to COVID-19. Good Luck!
