Tennessee
Tennessee is a classic example of the fact that if you don’t have a quarterback you are lost in the modern NFL.
Finally they have given up on Jake Locker and at 2-9 they are going to give rookie Zach Mettenberger as much run as they can to help him develop. He is not the most mobile guy but I like what I see most of the time.

This team is very bad defensively which puts him in some bad situations so we may not know as much about him as would like by the end of his rookie season.
The Titans are pretty bad all over the field.
They are 28th in yards for and against and have lost their last 5, 9 of 10. They are the definition of playing out the string and they are beat up too. This one will all hinge on how they come out in the first quarter.

If you think they can be solid to start maybe they can make a game of it. If not then it is really hard to get behind these guys. They are 3-7-1 ATS.
Houston
It is a longshot but the Texans still have a chance to catch the Colts.
They still have two games left against Jacksonville and a game against Indy and are just two behind. To make up the ground they most likely have to be perfect which means no slipups at home against terrible teams like Tennessee.
They beat the Titans last month on the road by 14 points so it stands to reason that they can beat them again easily.
Though nothing has come easily for the Texans this season.
Houston gets Arian Foster back but they put Ryan Mallett on IR during the week.
That puts Ryan Fitzpatrick back at the helm and if it was against anybody else I would be worried. Against Tennessee he can lead the attack similar to the way he did when they won last time.

Play a mistake free game and let the running backs do the damage – Foster ran for 150 in that one.
