10* NFL GAME OF THE YEAR
(NFL) New Orleans vs. Tennessee,
Point Spread: 3.00 | -120.00 Tennessee (Home)
Result: Loss
THe Saints are banged up here and with the short week playing on the road we like the Tenn Titans as the small home dog. Saints LB Kiko Alonso isn't ready to return yet from his quadricep injury. He was ruled out for Sunday's game at Tennessee after not practicing on Friday. G Larry Warford (knee) and S Vonn Bell (knee) were also ruled out. G Andrus Peat (arm), S C.J. Gardner-Johnson (concussion) and CB Patrick Robinson (calf) are questionable. Drew Brees is coming off a recording setting game on MNF and it will be difficult to repeat a 29-30 passing game. Tennessee is 11th in the league in scoring offense as they put up 24.2 points per game on the season. The Titans are 15th in the league in total offense with 352.9 yards per game and stand 7th in yards per play with 5.9 yards per snap. Tennessee is eighth in the league in scoring defense as they give up an average of 19.9 points per contest. T The Titans are 1st in red zone success as they have cashed in 73.17 percent of their drives that got inside the opposition's 20-yard line into touchdowns. Tennessee is near the top of the pack in getting off the field as opposing teams have converted 37.22 percent of their third downs, which is 12th in the league. The Titans have come on strong here at the end of the season to win four of their last five but come into this game fresh off a loss to the Texans. Ryan Tannehill has resurrected his career somewhat this season and with Derrick Henry running the ball like a monster this group as been finding a lot of success late in the season. The Titans are racking up yardage and points with Ryan Tannehill at QB, and the Saints are taking a rare trip outdoors, where they are 4-12-1 ATS in December and January since Drew Brees' second season in New Orleans. Take the TENN TITANS here on Sunday.
