The Tennessee Titans were among the few teams offering fans and gamblers an old-school approach. The NFL odds plan has been to run the ball continuously with Derrick Henry for the past several years. And Tennessee has had more success than not doing so. But Henry is showing some treadwear as the Tennessee QBs fail to cover for the lost production. Tennessee’s problems won’t be easy to solve Thursday night at the Pittsburgh Steelers. Pittsburgh will be hungry to get back into the win column. Especially against a beatable opponent.
