The Chiefs snagged a win in Week 6, but it was tough sledding in the first half. Kansas City has struggled to get their offense off the ground early in games this season. This is something they?ll want to avoid when they face the Tennessee Titans. The Chiefs need to attack early on, taking shots downfield and exploiting the Titans' secondary.
If they can rush the ball, they should, but should also be wary of playing into the Titans' hand. Controlling the clock is what the Titans do best; Kansas City needs to force them into a shootout. Their best bet is making Ryan Tannehill do the heavy lifting for the Titans' offense on Sunday.
In Week 6, the Titans faced off against the Buffalo Bills, one of the league?s best offenses. Now they?ll have to take on Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs. The good news for the Titans is that the Chiefs don?t have as much offensive dominance this year. Still, the Titans secondary needs to be careful about the shots downfield to Tyreek Hill.
Each possession needs to end with a score for Tennessee. They?ll also need to take their time doing it, so Patrick Mahomes never gets into a rhythm. This game will be all about momentum and how the Titans respond to a Chiefs score. If the Chiefs commit a turnover, the Titans need to score off of it. Anything they can do to get the Chiefs in an early hole is ideal.
Although the Chiefs aren?t as big of a presence this year, they?re still an incredible team. Unfortunately, they?re dealing with a big injury on the offensive line. Guard Joe Thuney is still listed as ?questionable? for Sunday?s game. With Patrick Mahomes missing his starting guard, he could see a ton of pressure from Tennessee.
The Titans are dealing with injuries of their own. Tackle Talyor Lewan will likely be out, and WR Julio Jones could be missing from the lineup too. With both of those players potentially sidelined, this game swings in favor of the Chiefs. This is going to be a close game, Kansas City could take the win, but the Titans will cover the spread.
