The Tennessee Titans are unbeaten no longer but at least they did not have long to dwell on their first loss of the season. Jeff Fisher's squad will come off of short rest to take on the Lions at 12:30pm ET at Ford Field in Detroit, MI. NFL Picks at SBGglobal.com have the Titans listed as a -11 road favorite.
Tennessee will get a double dose of turkey this Thanksgiving, one will come on a plate and the other will take a field. The Titans could not have picked a better opponent to play after being humiliated by the Jets in Nashville. On Sunday New York ended Tennessee's bid for a perfect season and history's bid for two teams with perfect records to meet on Thanksgiving.
The Titans never came close to resembling themselves against the Jets. They could not run the ball, they could not get pressure on Favre, and they were doubled up in the time of possession battle. Things should come a little easier against the Lions today.
Detroit has been awful all season but the past two weeks they have found a new way to lose, by blowing sizable leads. Against Carolina and Tampa Bay, the Lions looked as if they might actually get off the proverbial snide, but they found their horrendous play too much to overcome. What else would be expected from a team that gives up over 31 points per game?
NFL Picks Betting Trend: The Over is 7-2-1 in Detroit's last 10 games as a home underdog.
