Titans open as big favorites over Texans for Week 11

The Tennessee Titans (8-2) have a great chance to keep their impressive winning streak going in Week 11 with a matchup against one of the worst teams in the NFL, the Houston Texans (1-8).

According to Tipico Sportsbook, the Titans are 9.5-point favorites over the visiting Texans, and the over/under is set at 44.5. The spread is tied for the second-largest of any Week 11 game, while the over/under is tied for the second-lowest.

The Titans come into this game winners of their last six, including five straight wins against teams that made the playoffs in 2020, tying an NFL record set by the 2007 Philadelphia Eagles.

In all, the Titans are 7-0 against teams that made the postseason last year, and they are sitting atop the AFC South and conference, and own a share of the best record in the NFL.

Meanwhile, the Texans are going in a different direction. After notching a victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 1, Houston has lost eight straight and sits in the cellar of the division coming off its bye.

Through 10 games, the Titans are 7-3 against the spread and have hit the over in six of 10 contests. The Texans are 4-5 against the spread and have hit the over in four of nine games.

Houston and Tennessee will meet on Sunday for their first of two matchups, with the other coming in Week 18. The Week 11 matchup is set for a noon CT kickoff.
