Tennessee Titans vs. Houston Texans prediction, odds and picks - November 21, 2021 | NFL Week 11
The red-hot Tennessee Titans will host the reeling Houston Texans at home in Week 11 of the 2021 NFL season.
The Titans are 8-2 and are the #1 seed in the AFC. Many expected Tennessee's performance to tank after they lost Derrick Henry to injury. But they have continued to grind wins and sit comfortably atop the AFC standings.
The Texans are on the opposite end of the form spectrum. After the Detroit Lions' tie against the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 10, Houston now owns the longest active losing streak in the NFL. They have lost eight straight since their victory in Week 1.
This game is one of the most lopsided contests of the season, but the Jacksonville Jaguars showed that being a heavy underdog has no bearing on performance when they beat the Buffalo Bills.

Tennessee Titans vs. Houston Texans betting picks
The Titans are averaging 30.75 points over their past four games and have played against some decent defenses over that stretch. The Texans have been held to single-digits in three of their last four games, so don't expect much from their offense against an in-form Titans defense. Picking under is more logical, but the Titans could score 45 points themselves on Sunday. Take the risk and bet the over.
