Sportsbook Odds Analysis
The line and total each moved very slightly early in the week from their openers with the Titans improving to a 3-point favorite and the total being bumped up to 44.5. Bettors were likely impressed by Tennessee’s strong offensive showing against Cleveland last Sunday.
Indianapolis News & Notes
While there are no moral victories in the NFL, last week’s overtime loss to the Los Angeles Chargers should feel like one for the Indianapolis Colts. Brissett looked sharp with two touchdown passes and no interceptions, Marlon Mack was outstanding with 174 rushing yards and a touchdown, and if not for two missed field goals and a missed extra point from Adam Vinatieri, the Colts probably would have won outright.
As such, the Colts have plenty to build on moving forward. They’ve gone 5-1 SU and 4-2 ATS in their last six games against divisional foes; if they can keep up that sort of dominance in 2019, they’ve got a shot at repeating as AFC North champions.
Tennessee News & Notes
If the Colts should be feeling fine after their season-Sportsbook loss to the Chargers, the Titans have to be on Cloud 9 after putting up one of the most dominant performances of Week 1. Going off as 5.5-point road underdogs against the super-hyped Cleveland Browns, Tennessee rolled to a 43-13 victory behind a three-touchdown day from Marcus Mariota.
The Titans finished 2018 on a 6-3 SU run that included back-to-back upset wins over the Dallas Cowboys and New England Patriots. Mariota has struggled with injuries and inconsistency through his first four seasons in the NFL, and his play this season could decide his fate in Tennessee and in the league for years to come.
