Until Tennessee can show some sign of life on offense, I can’t trust to pick them in any game, even in a matchup with a struggling Chargers squad that has been incredibly disappointing this season.

The Chargers are a top five pass defense and that is bad news for the Titans abysmal air attack. Adding to that, a pass-rusher like Joey Bosa should create nightmares for this putrid Titans offensive line. With that said, the Chargers are exploitable on the ground, so look for Derrick Henry to keep the home team relevant and in this game for 60 minutes.

Henry, along with the Tennessee defense, will keep this game close in what will be a low-scoring affair, but the Chargers will be able to do enough to squeak out a win to send the Titans deeper into the hole they’ve dug themselves. Sadly, there is no end in sight for head coach Mike Vrabel‘s squad.

Prediction: Chargers 20, Titans 14
