Titans vs Saints Prediction 

Both of these teams come into this matchup with records well below .500, but they both have some momentum in recent weeks. New Orleans has won three in a row, including two wins against Tampa Bay and Carolina. Tennessee has won two of their last three and just blew out KC last week. The Titans do have some defensive issues, as they have allowed 25+ in four of their last five. I think we could see this game turn into a shootout with how the offenses are playing right now, but I like the Saints on the road. New Orleans has looked very strong against some solid teams recently, so give me the Saints here.
