The Cincinnati Bengals will travel to Nashville to face off with the Tennessee Titans in the AFC Divisional Round. The 4th seed Bengals are coming off their first playoff win in 31 years while the top seed Titans had a first round bye and will be well rested in this game.
Cincinnati Bengals
The Cincinnati playoff curse has finally been lifted as the Bengals held on to win 26-19 over the Las Vegas Raiders in the wild card round. Joe Burrow continues to serve as this teams franchise player and finished 24/34 passing for 244 yards and a pair of touchdowns in his first career playoff game.
Rookie of the Year frontrunner Ja’Marr Chase had another big performance and caught a team high 9 receptions for 116 yards. Tight End CJ Uzomah was a consistent target for Burrow and caught 6 passes for 64 yards and a touchdown.
Germaine Pratt stopped a potential Raiders comeback with a goal line interception to clinch the victory. Cincinnati had some defensive injuries in this game as leading pass rusher Trey Hendrickson suffered a concussion and is questionable and starting defensive tackle Larry Ogunjobi has been ruled out for the season with a foot injury.
Tennessee Titans
The AFC’s top ranked team will finally get to silence the doubters at home this weekend against the Cincinnati Bengals. Tennessee secured the top spot with a 12-5 record as well as an NFL record 8 wins against teams with winning records.
With the new playoff formatting implemented last season, the Titans were only one of two teams in the NFL to earn a first round bye. That rest is much needed for a team that set an NFL record for most players used in games for a season. The main headliner of that group is reigning NFL leading rusher Derrick Henry who has not played since Week 8 with a broken foot.
With a win, Tennessee could advance to their second AFC championship in the last three seasons. They have the advantage of another home game and will face either the Kansas City Chiefs or Buffalo Bills, both teams they beat earlier this season.
NFL Betting Trends:

4* Free NFL Betting Prediction: Titans -3.5 & Under 47.5
The small opening line for this game further cements the national disrespect towards Tennessee. The Titans earned the top spot in the AFC and clinched home-field advantage with an 8-3 record against winning teams while dealing with one of the most injured rosters in the league.
This Titans roster is familiar with the playoffs and have a much more tested roster than the Bengals who just won their first postseason game in 31 years. Tennessee is a much more physical team and have the advantage in the trenches over a week Cincinnati offensive line and injured defensive line.
Everyone loves the flash and showtime of Burrow and the Bengals passing game but if they are kept off the field the game can quickly fall out of their favor.
Take Tennessee and their revamped defense to stifle the Bengals and pound the ground game behind a rested Derrick Henry.
Titans spread and the UNDER is the play in this one.
