Texans vs. Titans Point Spread: NFL Predictions, Week 15 Odds
The Texans and Titans head into their Week 15 tilt at Nissan Stadium tied for the division lead – and that’s a remarkable development for Tennessee, which has won four in a row and has seen its playoff hopes invigorated by none other than ex-Miami Dolphins castoff Ryan Tannehill.
NFL Point Spread and Betting Analysis
Tennessee opened as a 1.5-point favourite, but it didn’t take long for a flood of money on the home side to push that line up to a field goal. The Titans are a red-hot 6-1 against the spread in their previous seven games, but that impressive ATS run will be put to the test against a Texans team that has covered in seven of the last 10 meetings between the teams. That said, Houston has struggled to a 2-5 ATS mark over its previous seven outings.
Where the number ends up – it’s presently sitting at 50 – will be of particular interest to totals bettors who have seen the Titans blow up the number over the past two months, putting together a seven-game consecutive Over streak during which it has seen 50+ points scored five times. And that trend runs counter to recent history between the teams, as they’ve converted the Under in five of their previous seven meetings at Nissan Stadium.
Houston Texans
You can make it six consecutive games of fewer than 30 for the Texans following last week’s stunning 38-24 home loss to the Denver Broncos. It’s their longest such streak since the final six weeks of the 2017 regular season – and it might be even longer after this weekend, with word that No. 2 receiver Will Fuller might miss his second straight game with a hamstring injury. Fuller ranks second on the team in receiving yards (598) and third in receiving scores (three).

Tennessee Titans
Tannehill is making Titans bettors increasingly ecstatic, coming out of nowhere to emerge as one of the key figures in the AFC playoff race. He has completed nearly 75 percent of his pass attempts so far this season with 15 touchdowns against just five interceptions; he also comes into Week 15 having thrown multiple touchdown passes in four straight games. This is the first of two meetings between the divisional rivals in 2019; they’ll meet again in Week 17.
