The Titans & Saints Game Preview
This article will provide a prediction for the Tennessee Titans vs New Orleans Saints NFL Preseason game scheduled for Sunday, August 25th at the Caesars Superdome in New Orleans, Louisiana. Let's analyze both teams for this week three preseason matchup and find a winning prediction.
The Tennessee Titans Team
Betting Preview
During this preseason, the Tennessee Titans have achieved a 2-0 record, with their latest victory being a 16-15 win against Seattle. Despite trailing 15-13 in the final quarter, Tennessee managed to secure the victory with a game-winning field goal at the last moment. The Titans outperformed Seattle, gaining a total of 338 yards compared to Seattle's 239, and had a 5-15 conversion rate on third downs. Mason Rudolph threw for 125 yards and one touchdown, while Malik Willis threw for 116 yards and one interception. Julius Chestnut rushed for 45 yards on 13 carries. In their first game, Tennessee defeated San Francisco with a score of 17-13.
Tennessee went 2-1 in the preseason last year, which began with a 23-17 loss against Chicago. The Titans bounced back with a 24-16 win over Minnesota and beat New England by a score of 23-7 in the third game. We should see Will Levis and the starters for at least some of this game, but Rudolph and Willis will get the majority of snaps and that could possibly be problematic.
The New Orleans Saints Team
Betting Preview
The New Orleans Saints have a 1-1 record in the preseason, having suffered a 16-10 defeat to San Francisco last week. Despite initially leading 7-0 in the second quarter, New Orleans only managed to score three more points for the remainder of the game, resulting in their loss. The Saints were outgained by San Francisco with a total of 315-271 and committed one turnover. Jake Haener threw for 76 yards, Derek Carr for 47 yards, and Spencer Rattler for 27 yards in the match. Jordan Mims rushed for 37 yards on 10 carries during the loss. In their first game, New Orleans emerged victorious over Arizona with a score of 16-14.
New Orleans went 2-1 in the 2023 preseason, which included wins over Kansas City (26-24) and the Chargers (22-17), and a 17-13 loss against the Texans in the finale. Derek Carr’s status for this game is up in the air, but Haener and Rattler will get most of the snaps under center and could be a problem today.
The Tennessee Titans vs New Orleans Saints
Game Prediction
The Pick: Tennessee Titans -2.5 /ML
Tennessee confidently enters this game on the back of two hard-fought victories against the Seahawks and 49ers, triumphing by a mere five-point margin. While the Titans have showcased solid defensive prowess in the early weeks, their offense has managed an average of only 16.5 points. New Orleans has mirrored this offensive output, with an average of 13 points over their first two games. With Rudolph and Willis providing a significant advantage in the backup quarterback position, I firmly predict that the Titans will cover the spread and get us a easy cash today!
