Titans at Packers NFL Week 16
Green Bay Packers vs Tennessee Titans, NFL, Lambeau Field

The 10-4 Tennessee Titans travel to Lambeau Field to take on the top-ranked NFC team, the Green Bay Packers.  Aaron Rodgers has played like a man possessed this season and will try his best to bring the Titans back down to reality.  The Packers are -3.5 home faovurites (-104 888sport).

Packers clinched; keep on rollin’

The Green Bay Packers are currently the number one team in the NFC at 11-3 and have already clinched their division, while the Tennessee Titans are battling it out with the Indianapolis Colts for the AFC South title.  This is a crucial game for the Titans, and it’s totally feasible that they give the Packers a taste of their own medicine this weekend, but will they?

There’s a lot to like about the Titans.  Derrick Henry is one of the most dominant running backs and seemingly impossible to take down, as he trucks through just about every defender that comes his way.  A.J. Brown is one of the most dynamic young wide receivers, who had a ridiculous catch back in Week 14 against the Jaguars.

From a betting perspective, they’ve been great, going 4-1 ATS in their last five games and 10-2 SU in their last 12 games on the road.

This week’s matchup against the Packers isn’t particularly easy, however.  Despite already clinching, the Packers will be playing to secure home-field advantage throughout the playoffs. Aaron Rodgers could potentially have another field-day against the Titans’ 29th ranked passing defense.  It’s also worth noting that Green Bay has lost at home just once in their 13 games played this season.

Both of these teams will make a splash in this year’s playoffs, and this game could potentially be a Super Bowl preview if Tennessee can keep it up the rest of the way.  888sport has the OVER/UNDER set at 56, which is a bit high for my liking, so I’m taking the UNDER in this one.
