Tennessee Titans NFL Week 16 Betting Lines

The NFL betting season can’t end soon enough for Brian Callahan and his criticized coaching staff that will go down in history as the overseers of one of the worst campaigns in Tennessee Titans history. While most of the talking heads and team reporters are pointing fingers at the coaching staff for the teams brutal 3-11 straight up (SU) and 2-12 against the spread (ATS) records, there’s only so much they can do to make what’s spoken of and run in practice carry over to the playing field. You aren’t going to win many games in this day and age of the NFL when you turn the ball over six times, regardless of forcing four turnovers yourself, which is exactly what went down in the margin loss to the Cincinnati Bengals this past weekend. Losers of three straight both SU and against the closing NFL odds, the Titz will attempt to play the role of spoiler in Week 16 betting action when it travels to Indianapolis looking to slam the door shut on the division rival Colts faint playoff hopes. Believe it or not, but NFL bettors seem to be banking on exactly just that with Callahan’s troops taking in a bulk of the betting action per current action reports from the online sportsbook.

In falling for the eleventh overall time, the Titans odds of winning Super Bowl LIX, AFC, and AFC South have been taken off the board. Hardly a shock considering the Titz hit the board +800 to win the division behind the Texans (+175), Jaguars (+200), and Colts (+250) and closed 10-1 before Week 1 kicked off. The only futures odds option that was still on the board heading into last week’s bout with the Bengals was the Titans adjusted in-season win total. That is no longer the case with it no longer available. Last we saw it, the number to beat clocked in at 4.5 with heavier vig attached to the under. What a disappointment this team has been considering all the moves made in the offseason saw it owners of a 6.5-game win total heading into the Week 1 tilt at Chicago.
