Pick: Titans ML (+120)
It is already time for week nine of the NFL season and at the midway point of the year both of these teams come into this game looking for a crucial victory to bolster their playoff chances in a very loaded AFC. Both the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Tennessee Titans I’ve already gone through the ups and downs of this season, and both of them will be looking for some consistency throughout the back of the season starting with this game on Thursday night in Pittsburgh.
The Tennessee Titans come into this game looking to grab their fourth victory of the season over the Pittsburgh Steelers here on Thursday night after a short week. Tennessee is coming off of a solid victory in their previous matchup where Will Levis broke out in his first career NFL start and put on an incredible performance for the Tennessee Titans. He will be looking to do it for the second week in a row as he looks to get them their fourth victory of the season and even up their record, heading into the back half of the calendar.
This is a team that has the potential to be successful throughout the remainder of the regular season if they are consistent and injury free throughout the last nine weeks of the regular season. Tennessee will be hoping they do have DeAndre Hopkins for this game as he is currently listed as questionable the night before. They will also be looking to finally grab a victory on the road after losing back-to-back games away from home to the Indianapolis Colts and the Cleveland Browns. This is a crucial point of the season for Tennessee as they arguably play in the weakest division in the entire AFC and a victory. Here would keep their head above water and allow them to remain competitive with Jacksonville heading into the final nine weeks of the regular season.

The Pittsburgh Steelers come into this game, looking to grab a crucial victory over the Tennessee Titans at home in arguably the toughest environment in the entire NFL. Pittsburgh has been treading water throughout the early part of the season, and they will be looking for a crucial victory to keep pace in the AFC north with the Baltimore Ravens as they play in the toughest division in all of football with three other playoff contenders this season. They will be pretty thin in the secondary, as both Minkah Fitzpatrick and Levi Wallace will miss this game on Thursday night against the Tennessee Titans.
Which also hurts Tennessee because with the absence of DeAndre Hopkins, it would leave them short of a massive weapon that could run past some young players in the secondary throughout the game on Thursday night. Pittsburgh is coming into this game after losing to the Jacksonville Jaguars and they will be looking to grab a victory over an AFC South team this time around rather than fumble one away like they did last weekend against Jacksonville. This is a tough battle tested team so a close game will not phase them much, but they will need to find a way to pull out a victory in this one otherwise they will fall behind the pack in the AFC, which has been very competitive throughout the first eight weeks of the year.
Betting trends to consider in this matchup:
- Pittsburgh is 2-3 outside of the AFC North
- Pittsburgh is 0-2 against the AFC South
- Pittsburgh is 2-2 at home this season
I look for this to be a close and competitive game, but in the end, I think the Tennessee Titans will come into Pittsburgh and grab a victory over the Steelers. I think the way Will Levis played last weekend will carry over into this short week and he will put up solid numbers in this game on Thursday night on the road. I look for Tennessee to outlast Pittsburgh in this game, and come away with their most crucial victory of the season to date and what feels like I must win contest for them midway through the season.
