Tennessee Titans vs Jacksonville Jaguars NFL match analysis, predictions and odds
The Tennessee Titans (7-5) play the Jacksonville Jaguars (4-8) on Sunday, 11 at 13:00 at Nissan Stadium. Having won seven of their 12 games, the Tennessee Titans are in first place in the AFC South and have collected three more wins than the Jacksonville Jaguars, who are third in the AFC South ahead of this matchup. The Tennessee Titans claimed a 20-0 win when last faced with the Jacksonville Jaguars, and they look like a solid call to take out their coming visitors at the Nissan Stadium once again.
Form Tennessee Titans
The Philadelphia Eagles proved too much to handle last time out in a 35-10 defeat for the Tennessee Titans. That said, the hosts are on a bit of a hot streak in the AFC South. They’ve won 11 of their past 12 divisional matchups, leaving them hopeful for a swift return to winning ways in Week 14.
The Tennessee Titans have struggled to get their offense rolling so far, scoring just 18.3 points on average. Surrendering 20.0 points per game, meanwhile, leaves the Tennessee Titans’ defense around the middle of the pack compared to the rest of the league’s defensive units.
Making the playoffs should be the bare minimum expected of this team. The Tennessee Titans may not have won the AFC Championship Game last season, but they finished with the best regular season record in the AFC Conference, winning the AFC South to boot, and will be gunning for more of the same this time around.
Form Jacksonville Jaguars
Form is not looking good for Jacksonville Jaguars, who came up short in a 40-14 defeat against Detroit Lions last week. Moreover, they have lost their last four road matches in a row. Their overall record for the last 10 games is 3-7.
The Jacksonville Jaguars will bring a middle-of-the-park offense for their latest game on the road, having scored 21.5 points per game this season. On the other side of the ball, the defense has conceded one too many points recently. The visitors have given up 27.0 points in the previous five outings, which is more than the 22.7 points they’ve allowed per game over the course of the regular season.
2021 was a year to forget for the Jacksonville Jaguars. The visitors failed to reach the playoffs, having finished fourth in the AFC South at 3-14, and are expected to miss the NFL postseason again, having gone 4-8 so far in the current campaign.
