‘Tennessee Titans at Detroit Lions- 9/18/16 NFL Pick, Odds, and Prediction’

Marcus Mariota converted a fourth down with a perfectly lofted 9-yard pass to Andre Johnson with 1:13 left, lifting the Tennessee Titans to a 16-15 win over the Detroit Lions on Sunday.

Lions running back Ameer Abdullah exited today’s game against the Titans with a foot injury. If the Lions interior offensive line can limit stud defensive lineman Jurrell Casey’s impact, the Detroit offense could feast.

This week’s Tennessee Titans-Detroit Lions matchup is the 12th all-time meeting between the Titans and Lions. Detroit’s defense allowed two Indianapolis tight ends to combine for three touchdown catches in Week 1, which means Walker is likely to have many more opportunities to make plays in this one.

Against the Lions, the running game may not be as effective either so Tennessee needs to rely on Mariota through the air.

The Titans have won the last four matchups, including victories in 2001, the 2004 season finale, a Thanksgiving game in 2008 and an overtime thriller at Nissan Stadium in 2012. Titans led Minnesota 10-0 at half last week before blowing lead with three turnovers, two returned for scores, in four-possession stretch.

Many pundits in the football community expected both Jim Caldwell of the Lions and Mike Mularkey of the Titans to be fired once the new general managers were put in place.

The Lions home opener for this year, sees them once again taking on AFC South opposition and it seems that they are playing teams based on ascending strength of defense.

Detroit was determined to establish its improved ground game early against the Colts, including on the opening drive that was capped by Riddick’s 21-yard touchdown run. How are you feeling about the performance of Matthew Stafford?

Abdullah, a second-round pick a year ago, and Riddick, a sixth-round selection in 2013, appear to be great options for Stafford when he hands the ball off or tosses a short pass.

The Lions finished the 2015 season on a 6-2 run. Tajae Sharpe led in receiving with 76 yards in seven catches while Delanie Walker posted 42 yards in three catches.

Matthew Stafford was 22 of 40 for 260 yards with one touchdown and an interception for Detroit (1-1). Luckily for Rodgers, receiver Jordy Nelson has had another week of practice to get into his groove, and he could be in store for a big night after catching six passes, including one for a TD, in his return from an ACL tear. Golden Tate gets to play against his home town team and boy is he excited about it.
