Buffalo Bills (4-0) at Tennessee Titans (3-0)

Sunday, October 11, 1PM ET

It’s hard to know what’s going on with the Tennessee Titans right now. They were forced into a sudden bye in Week 4 due to a COVID breakout, and now it’s unclear what the immediate future holds and who is going to be available on game day.

The Titans were playing well prior to the spread, with Ryan Tannehill getting out of the gates fast and Derrick Henry still playing like a star. Although the defense was breaking a bit more than bending, they were showing resilience in close games and doing enough to land Tennessee in the win column.

Unfortunately, they face the Buffalo Bills in Week 5. Josh Allen is having a breakout season, already looking like an MVP candidate through four weeks. The run game has been dynamic with Devin Singletary stealing the show, and having Stefon Diggs out wide has been a huge boost. Put simply, the Bills are looking like one of the most complete teams in the league right now.

Even with an extra week of rest, it hasn’t necessarily been a restful last few days for the Titans. They’ll come ready to play (hopefully), but it still won’t be enough to overcome a Bills team that is absolutely rolling right now.

Prediction: Bills win 31-23
