Tennessee Titans Team News
After losing in first two rounds, the Tennessee Titans started to play as everyone expected. They won seven of their last eight games, with only loss against the Kansas City Chiefs in overtime. In that game, they were close to win even though they were without starting quarterback Ryan Tannehill.
The way the Titans play has been identical for years. In their offense, everything depends on running game, which is quite normal when you have Derrick Henry on the roster. He is the best running back in the entire league. Over the years, Tannehill has become a system man who is expected not to have too many turnovers. Defense is at a standard high level and since Mike Vrabel has been head coach, the Titans have been outstanding on that side of the field.
Despite sacking Joe Burrow nine times, the Titans lost to the Bengals in the conference semifinals last season. Now, they will be highly motivated to take revenge for that defeat, especially since it would make the Bengals run to the playoffs so difficult.
Cincinnati Bengals Team News
The Cincinnati Bengals season is quite similar to the Tennessee Titans one. They started with two losses and after that they started to play better, so now they are at 6-4. The Bengals will have a much tougher schedule in coming period, so they still have a lot of work to do in order to be in the playoffs.
Offensively, the Bengals are one of the best teams in the NFL. Joe Burrow and Ja’Marr Chase are a spectacularly good tandem, although Chase missed last three games due to injury. In his absence, Tee Higgins stood out. Between two seasons, the Bengals changed almost their entire offensive line. It didn’t give desired result in first couple of weeks, but as time goes by things are getting better.
In the last six games of the regular season, the Bengals have a hell of a schedule. They will probably need 10 wins for a playoff spot, so for them every game until the end is extremely important. Simply, there is not much room for failure.
H2H
Only twice these two teams played against each other in the last five years and both times the Bengals won. Before the conference semifinals last season, they met in 2020 when it was 31:20 in Cincinnati.
Injuries
Jeffery Simmons, Kristian Fulton, Denico Autry and Randy Bullock are questionable for the Tennessee Titans. Joe Mixon won’t play for the Cincinnati Bengals while several players are questionable including Ja’Marr Chase, Jay Tufele, Josh Tupou and Joe Bachie.
Tennessee Titans vs. Cincinnati Bengals Prediction
It’s surprising to see that the Titans are underdogs on paper here. They are definitely not a weaker team than the Bengals. Without Mixon and with a limited Chase, it is very difficult to expect the visitors to win, so handicap on the Titans is a great bet.
