Tennessee Titans vs Oakland Raiders 10/28/07
The Tennessee Titans should have Vince Young back at quarterback vs. the Oakland Raiders, which means that they should not have as many drives stall as last week, when Rob Bironas set an NFL record with eight field goals.
Still, the Titans did score a total of 38 points with Kerry Collins under center vs. the Houston Texans, so Tennessee is capable of approaching the posted total on this game by themselves vs. an Oakland defense that is allowing 360.3 total yards of offense per game on the road this season. A running quarterback like Young is an added challenger for the Raiders, considering that their defense is allowing 5.2 yards per rush on the ground overall this year and 5.9 yards per rush on the road.
As for the other side of the ball, the Raiders running game that looked so potent earlier in the year has been shut down the last two games, and they do not figure to improve much vs. a Titans defense that allows just 59.2 rushing yards per game. This means that Oakland will put the ball in the air early and often, which is also conducive to the Over.
We actually forecast a point output in the 50s in this game, giving the Over some value at this reasonable number.
