Browns vs. Titans: 5 Bold predictions for crucial Week 13 AFC matchup
2. Titans, Browns both top 30 points in high-scoring shootout
With Chubb, Henry, Brown, Jarvis Landry, Corey Davis and a host of other terrific weapons on the field for this game in Week 13, there is always the potential for a lot of points. But what furthers that point is the fact that, though each team’s defense has some nice pieces, they have been more than generous at various points throughout the year.
The Browns and Titans are right next to one another in terms of defensive performance this season, giving up 26.0 and 25.9 points per game, respectively, on the season. Moreover, each team gives up over 370 total yards per game on the season. When you couple that with the offensive talent, this game is going to be back and forth.
Perhaps the simplest way to present this is that it doesn’t appear that either team has the personnel to stop the other in this game. While it might not be the all-out aerial assault that many NFL shootouts feature — though Ryan Tannehill and Baker Mayfield will get theirs too — both teams will move the ball with ease.
As a result, this game should live up to the hype as a marquee matchup on Sunday. Cleveland and Tennessee are going to give fans plenty of entertainment as they shatter the 53-point Over/Under total set for the game with each clearing 30 points on the scoreboard.
