Green Bay Packers vs Tennessee Titans Analysis
The Green Bay Packers will look to revive the spark that saw them overcome a double-digit deficit in the fourth quarter of last week’s game against the Dallas Cowboys as they face the Tennessee Titans this week up in Lambeau.
That was the Packers’ first win in five games, however, and it’ll be no easy task to repeat last week’s heroics against an excellent AFC South-leading Tennessee Titans team on Thursday night.

Henry Continues To Be A Steam Train
After five-straight games putting up 100+ yards rushing for Derrick Henry, a 53-yard effort against Denver last week did little to derail this Titans attack.
With the Broncos’ focus clearly aimed at stopping Henry, Ryan Tannehill was able to take over and carve up the Broncos through the air with 255 yards passing and a pair of touchdowns.
That dual-threat attack will no doubt present opportunities once again for the Titans this week, especially against a Packers defense allowing a whopping 4.8 yards per carry to opponents this season, which is 28th in the league.
Elementary My Dear Watson
Christian Watson will aim to repeat his heroics of last week with another high-octane display on Thursday night against the Titans, a display which saw him connect with Aaron Rodgers for 26.8 yards per reception with three touchdowns.
The Packers are 6-1-1 against the spread in their last eight Thursday Night Football games, so if Rodgers and Watson can replicate their success here on the big stage, the Packers have a real chance of improving that already-stellar primetime record.
Green Bay is going to need that connection because the Titans’ rushing defense is one of the best in the league. Tennessee is allowing just 55 rushing yards per game on 2.8 yards per carry over the last six weeks.
Green Bay Packers vs Tennessee Titans Prediction
It’s difficult to look past Derrick Henry having another massive game here on Thursday night as Green Bay has not only given up 4.8 yards per rush attempt to opponents this season as a whole, but an even worse 5.5 yards per rush attempt at home this year. Only the New York Giants have given up more rushing yards inside their home stadium this year than the Packers have.
That’s a huge red flag in this one and seeing that early opening number of -1 on the Packers shift to a full -3 now at time of writing, that’s simply too inviting to pass up. Tennessee has covered the spread in seven-straight contests, and we’re happy to side with the Titans plus the points in this one.
Prediction: Tennessee Titans +3
