A great game to close the exiting week 6 in the Monday Night Football action there will be a nice battle between two fine teams so far.
Bills are coming as an absolute favourite and there is a reason why. They lost their opening game in week 1 against the Steelers but since that round, Bills have been unstoppable with 39 PPG scored average in those 4 wins, and also believe it or not surrendered only 10.3 PPG. Yes, Bills are a SuperBowl candidate and we predict them to go far this season.
Tennessee Titans enter this round as 3-2 team and as well as a leader of AFC South which is perhaps the weakest division in the league and the Titans are the only team with a positive score so far.
The Buffalo Bills are 19-29 all-time against the Titans/Oilers. Each team has an iconic win over the other. Buffalo completed the largest comeback in NFL history against the then Oilers in the 1993 Wild Card Round, and the Titans beat the Bills in the 2000 Wild Card Round on the Music City Miracle.
Buffalo’s defense kept Kansas City’s explosive offense in check, generating three turnovers including one additional fumble on special teams. Patrick Mahomes threw two interceptions, one being a pick-six to Micah Hyde, with the other going to defensive end Greg Rousseau, who ended up being named AFC Defensive Player of the Week for his five tackles, one sack, and one interception performance.
Titans remain a work in progress. No team has allowed more sacks than their 20, and their receiving corps isn’t close to being at full strength. Julio Jones has just returned to practice after missing two games with a hamstring injury and A.J. Brown isn’t yet at 100 percent, although he played last week despite a hamstring problem. Now Tennessee faces a defence that leads the NFL in fewest points allowed per game (12.8), yards allowed per game (251.8) and takeaways (15).
The Buffalo Bills have now outscored their last four opponents 156-41; their average point differential on the season is +21.6. The Buffalo Bills are first in the NFL in both points for, and allowed, while the Titans are tenth offensively and 24th defensively in points.
Prediction: Buffalo Bills -6.5
