The Patriots were a 26-6 winner in their most recent outing at home against the New York Jets. They covered the -16.5-point spread as favorites, while the total score (32) made winners of UNDER bettors. The Patriots have won the last six games between the teams. The Titans haven’t won in Foxborough since 1993. They were the Houston Oilers then. The New England defense has spent the week preparing for mobile quarterback Marcus Mariota. He is a third-year pro who can make things happen with his legs. The Patriots could get both James White and Rex Burkhead back to help fortify a running game that has excelled because of Dion Lewis.Titans Are Ready for AFC Divisional Foe
The Titans were a 22-21 winner in their most recent outing on the road against the Kansas City Chiefs. They covered the +8.5-point spread as underdogs, while the total score (43) made winners of UNDER bettors. The Titans are two-touchdown underdogs to the Patriots. Mariota threw 13 touchdown passes and 15 interceptions during the regular season. He had two touchdown passes and one pick in the playoff win. One of the touchdowns passes actually went to himself. It came after Darrelle Revis batted down his pass before Mariota caught it and scored. Mariota was sixth in the NFL (Brady was first) in third-down passer rating. Running back DeMarco Murray will miss his third straight game with a knee injury. The Patriots could get both James White and Rex Burkhead back to further fortify a running game that has excelled even without them thanks to Dion Lewis.Recent Form
