Tennessee Titans vs Detroit Lions Betting Preview

It was quite the blowout the last time these two teams played. The road Titans won by double digits, defeating the Lions 46-25 in Week 15 of 2020.

Tennessee's biggest weakness has been their offense, ranking #32 in the league with a mere 213 yards per game. They've failed so much on offense in large part because of their passing attack, which checks in at #1-worst in football with 140 yards per game. And when a defense doesn't have to worry about the pass, they can key in on the run, which has led to just 3.9 yards per carry for the Titans -- bottom 10 in the league. This represents a particular disadvantage for Tennessee given that the Lions have excelled in stopping the pass this year, allowing just 6.75 yards per target (#3-best in the league). In terms of their defense, the Titans have ranked #1 in the league in total yards allowed per game. Opposing offenses have passed for 183 yards per game through the air against them (#30 in football). On the ground, opposing ball-carriers have ranked #28 with 3.93 yards per carry. Tennessee has been most effective in shutting down opposing tight ends, holding them to a 67.8% completion rate (#5-lowest). Positionally, perhaps their worst defensive asset has been their defensive tackles, which rank just #29 in the league in terms of getting to the passer.

Detroit's primary advantage has been their offense, which ranks #2 in football at 346 yards per game. The quality of their rushing attack has led to much of their success. The Lions 5.15 yards per carry ranks #6-best in the NFL. Given their ground game success, this has opened up opportunities through the air too; Detroit's 8.66 yards per target puts them #2 in football. When it comes to their defense, the Lions check in at #15 in football when it comes to total yards allowed per game. Opposing air attacks have notched 247 yards per game against Detroit this year (#6 in football). Opposing ball-carriers have ranked #26 against them with 4.32 yards per ground attempt. This Lions defense hits their peak effectiveness when it comes to defending opposing running backs, allowing them to complete just 75.4% of their passes (#2-lowest in the league). Detroit's defensive effectiveness bottoms out when it comes to defending opposing wide receivers, who have scorched them for 192 yards per game (#2-worst in the league).
