MINTY BETS: Let's wrap up week six of the NFL with a little Monday Night Football as the Tennessee Titans host the Buffalo Bills. The Bills are 5 and 1/2 point favorites, and the total is 54. I'm Minty Bets, joined by Pam Maldonado and Jared Quay, and we're here to give you our favorite picks for this game. So let's start with you, Pam. What is your pick?
PAMELA MALDONADO: My pick is the over on 54. Three teams have scored 27 points or more against the Titans, including the Jets. Bills are second in points per play, tied for second in touchdowns scored. The Bills, they'll definitely get theirs. They're too good of an offense not to put up points. But this Buffalo defense, they did also allow 20-plus points from the Steelers, from Washington, and from the Chiefs.
The Titans, they are an experienced offense. Running back Derrick Henry-- he is always going to be a threat on the ground. I expect them to put up a couple of scores with the Bills. Give me the points, over 54.
MINTY BETS: Ooh. You took the words right out of my mouth, because I also like the over 54. Both of these teams are very capable of scoring. Although the Bills are a tough defensive team, Tennessee is not, and they're going to probably allow quite a few points. But Tennessee has that bulldozer, Derrick Henry, and I don't think this Bills defense can keep up with him. So I think this will be somewhat of a shootout, so I like the over as well. Jared, say you like the over, too.
JARED QUAY: Yeah, go 0 for 3 in the group. No, no, no. I mean, I hope I'd hit because you guys are on it, but that's not my best bet for this game.
I like the Titans plus 5 and 1/2. In fact, I kind of like the Titans moneyline. Hear me out, all right. Titans are that team-- they'll lose to the worst team in the NFL, as you've seen when they lost to the Jets, but they can keep up with the best. In fact, last year they blew out this Bills team. And a lot of the same pieces are there.
I think the Titans have great offense that runs the ball well, so they can control the time of possession when you keep the ball out of Josh Allen's hands. And I still think that this Titans team is being undervalued and this Bills team is being overvalued. Yes, they've won some good games, but I still think they're a little bit high with 5 and 1/2. That's too many points. I actually think the Titans win this one. But let's go 5 and 1/2, just to be safe because they may just lose by 3.
PAMELA MALDONADO: Hey, if the Titans are winning this game, it's because they are putting up points and not stopping the Bills, so let's all hit.
