The Tennessee Titans will host the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Saturday night in this NFC South vs AFC South preseason matchup. This will take place at Nissan Stadium in Nashville . The Tennessee Titans took a large win in last year's season match up.
Tampa Bay is off to an 0-1 start after losing 26-24 at home to the Miami Dolphins last Saturday. That is to be expected as the Buccaneers rested just about every starter as expected in preseason week one.
Kyle Trask played the vast majority of snaps at quarterback, finishing 25 of 33 for 258 yards, one touchdown and one interception.Rachaad White was the leading rusher with seven carries for 32 yards, while Tyler Johnson reeled in six catches for 73 yards in the loss.
This team should be read to make a splash with a returning Brady and some spicy new additions.
Last season the Tampa Bay Buccaneers averaged 405.9 yards on offense and 331.5 yards given up on defense.
Veteran Ryan Tannehill won't play in the preseason much if any, and the Titans will want to see what they have in the exciting rookie Willis
The Titans are coming off of a loss to the Baltimore Ravens. The Titans were lead by rookie Quarterback Malik Willis. Willis went 6/11 for 107 yards while adding five carries for 38 yards and the score. Julius Chestnut carried the ball seven times for 44 yards, while Terry Godwin caught four passes for 31 yards.
Last season the Tennessee Titans averaged 342.5 yards on offense and 329.8 yards given up on defense.
The under is 8-3 in Buccaneers last 11 games on grass and is 5-0 in Titans last 5 home games as well as 5-1 in Titans last 6 games overall.
Although the Titans are 3-8 ATS in their last 11 Saturday games, I believe they should easily win this one. The Buccaneers are 1-9-1 ATS in their last 11 Saturday games and Buccaneers are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 meetings. The Favorite is 4-1 ATS in their last 5 meetings and the Home team is 4-1 ATS in their last 5 meetings.
