Raiders are a Rare Road Favorite

The Tennessee Titans were expected to experience some growing pains this season, which is exactly what’s happened in the wake of a 2-8 SU start. Marcus Mariota’s squad welcomes Derek Carr and the Oakland Raiders to town in Week 12 action on Sunday.

Shark Bites
  • The total has gone UNDER in 5 of the Titans' last 6 games as home underdogs.
  • The Raiders are 1-8 SU and 2-7 ATS in their last nine games on the road against the Titans.
  • The Titans are 5-18-1 ATS in their last 24 games against the AFC West.

The Raiders opened as 2-point favorites at sportsbooks—a rare feat for the club. Oakland has been favored on the road just four times since the 2005 season.

There’s been no such thing as home field advantage for Tennessee recently, as the Titans have dropped 10 straight games at Nissan Stadium. Totals bettors can take some solace in knowing the Titans have gone UNDER the closing total in five out of their last six games when listed as home dogs.
