Titans vs. Saints Gameday

Get ready for a thrilling Week 3 showdown as the New Orleans Saints (1-1) take on the undefeated Tennessee Titans (2-0) at the Caesars Superdome on Sunday, August 25th. This game promises to be a nail-biter, with both teams looking to make a statement before the regular season kicks off.

There was just one meeting between the Titans and Saints last year, with the Saints coming out on top 16-15. The Saints were -2.5 point favorites and even though the Titans lost, they covered the spread.

The game saw a combined total of 31 points, which was below the over/under line of 41.5 points.

Tennessee Titans

Despite trailing early, the Titans came back to beat the Seahawks 16-15, improving to 2-0 in the pre-season. Seattle led 6-0 after the 1st quarter, and although Tennessee scored in the 2nd, they still trailed 12-7 at halftime. The Titans took their first lead of the game with 7:58 remaining in the 4th quarter, as Brayden Narveson connected on a 59-yard field goal, making the score 15-12 in their favor. However, the Titans couldn’t hold on, as the Seahawks kicked a late field goal with two minutes left and then added another field goal to win it as time expired.

Heading into the game, the Titans were +1 point underdogs, and their 1-point victory meant they covered the spread. The combined 31 points was just under the total line of 35.5 points.

Tennessee’s defense also recorded three sacks in the game, although they lost the turnover battle and the quarterback hit differential.

New Orleans Saints

Despite taking an early 7-0 lead on a Taysom Hill touchdown in the 2nd quarter, the Saints fell behind the 49ers and lost by a score of 16-10, dropping their record to 1-1. New Orleans battled back to 13-10 in the 3rd quarter with a 52-yard field goal from Blake Grupe, but the 49ers added a field goal in the 4th, and the Saints couldn’t respond in the final period.

4* Free Week 3 NFL Betting Prediction: Tennessee -3.5

The Titans, surprising many with their perfect preseason record, have been rock-solid on defense, allowing just 14.5 points per game. While the regular season might hold modest expectations for Tennessee, they’ve shown a fierce competitive edge in these early matchups.

On the other side, the Saints, historically strong in the preseason against the Titans, are at a crossroads, possibly inching toward a rebuild faster than anticipated. With the spread favoring Tennessee by 3.5 points, and a moneyline of -187, the betting world is leaning toward a Titans win, but don’t sleep on New Orleans at +154.

The total set at 34.5 suggests a low-scoring affair, but with preseason unpredictability, anything can happen. As always, stay sharp, and keep those bets strategic for what’s sure to be an intense clash in New Orleans!

Our pick vs. the spread is to take the Titans to cover as road favorites. The point spread lines have the Titans at -3.5 favorites over the Saints, and we have them winning by a score of 20-10.

For this week three pre-season matchup, we also like the under for the over/under line, with a projected combined score of 30 points, just below the O/U line of 34.5 points.
