NFL TNF Showdown – Titans vs Steelers

Tennessee vs Pittsburgh – Week 9 – Thursday Night Football

For the Titans we should look in the Tyjae Spears, Chig Okonkwo, Treylon Burks range for someone who is going to wind up being a CORE pick tonight.  While Hopkins got all the love from Will Levis in his debut I would not automatically assume that him AND Derrick Henry can do enough on their prices to warrant using them and Spears big play ability, Okonkwo’s TE on Island game luck and Burks … well, Burks sucks still sadly.  Either way, the gem tonight is in that mix for the Titans.

For Pitt, the pricing is more favorable & I never use RB against the Titans, so I certainly won’t start with Najee Harris, although Jaylen Warren is someone in the mix.

I like Pittsburgh to win, maybe by 4-7 and I think it’s an entertaining game without a ton of touchdown scoring, so the kickers are both in play.

Prediction:  Steelers 20, Titans 16.
