Tennessee Titans An NFL, Thanksgiving tradition continues as the Detroit Lions host Tennessee as the Titans look to rebound from a loss for the first time this year.
At 0-11, that's the way the Detroit Lions have spent their entire season.
It is no surprise that odds makers are calling the Titans double digit favorites against the hapless Lions. NFL betting lines have Tennessee at -11.5 with the total sitting at 44.
While the Lions are getting closer to becoming the first team to go 0-16, Tennessee has seen their hopes of a perfect regular season disappear on Sunday with a 34-13 loss to the New York
"We weren't worried about being undefeated," said defensive tackle Tony Brown. "We were trying to win as many games as we could. Sunday was a good test for us. It's going to test our courage and how we're going to bounce back."
Still in the driver's seat, Tennessee has a two game lead on both the Steelers and the Jets for home field advantage throughout the playoffs.
"Everybody else is playing catch-up," said linebacker Keith Bulluck.
The Lions will need a holiday miracle to pull out a victory over the Titans. Detroit has lost 12 in a row and 18 of 19 overall.
Take the Titans and give the 11.5 points.
