However, under Dan Campbell, the Lions have proven to avoid games as such over the last three years.<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_6o38nuhhc\">Still, it could be tempting for the team to look ahead to the two-game stretch of Green Bay and Houston that awaits them. The Titans have begun to trade away pieces over the last week, and the roster doesn&#8217;t match up well with the Lions.<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_0abtczw8o\">I expect Detroit to start fast and score early, setting the tone for a multiple score win to continue their hot streak.<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_3a0t5ud9s\"><strong>Lions 31, Titans 13<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_zlbzjir22\">Camren Clouthier<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_1p8l3dtab\">The Detroit Lions were ranked as the top team in this week&#8217;s NFL Power Rankings and they&#8217;ll look to continue that dominance this weekend against the lowly 1-5 Tennessee Titans on home turf.<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_4rc47l34c\">On one hand, the Titans are hot garbage. They are losers of their last two games, have no reliable quarterback, and just traded away their best player in DeAndre Hopkins.<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_yr8ixtiau\">That said, look for the Lions to steamroll Tennessee. I anticipate that Detroit will jump out to an early lead and simply won&#8217;t look back. I&#8217;m also expecting QB Jared Goff to shine on offense, while Brian Branch continues to excel defensively. Although losing WR Jameson Williams to suspension will certainly hurt, I still think Detroit gets it done without him.<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_yr8ixtiau\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/statico.profootballnetwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/25154525\/tennessee-titans-at-detroit-lions-prediction-picks-week-8-2024-1920x1280.jpg\" alt=\"Tennessee Titans at Detroit Lions Prediction, Picks Week 8: Can the Lions  Avoid a Letdown vs. the Titans?\" \/><\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_yh2fbxjeg\"><strong>Lions 31, Titans 7<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_pat1aguze\">Lions Elevate OLB, TE From Practice Squad Against Titans<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_y7hi8ngqp\">Vito Chirco<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_xscnihrsb\">This Week 8 matchup between the Titans and Lions is a tale of two teams headed into vastly different directions.<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_5qdtb78ja\">Detroit \u2013 even without Pro Bowl EDGE Aidan Hutchinson for the remainder of the season \u2013 is on the trajectory of achieving its second straight double-digit win campaign. Meanwhile, Tennessee is in full rebuild mode, and has already dealt away key pieces, such as wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins and linebacker Ernest Jones IV.<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_uoyzdcgj5\">With the Lions being at home and Jared Goff playing as well as he is, I believe Dan Campbell&#8217;s squad has the significant upper-hand and comes out on top rather easily Sunday.<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_4ah06ilsq\"><strong>Lions 28, Titans 17<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_k9g6x95kw\">John Maakaron<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_g6k3jfwyt\">The Lions are hoping to avoid a letdown this week, especially with a Titans squad visiting Ford Field after trading away veteran wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins.<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_jhkgduh8n\">Detroit&#8217;s offense is executing at a high level, but will be without Jameson Williams, who was suspended for two games for violating the NFL&#8217;s performance-enhancing substances policy.<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_m6r4n0afd\">Jared Goff should continue his MVP-caliber play in front of the home fans. Detroit&#8217;s offense still possesses a plethora of weapons.<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_d53dzqz4x\">There are opportunities this week for Sam LaPorta, Tim Patrick and Allen Robinson to earn targets and receptions this week, as the Titans are decent against the run.<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_ymyhcu3qn\"><strong>Detroit 27, Titans 13<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Will Lions continue winning streak against Titans in Week 8.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":244,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-243","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-detroit-lions"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.7 -
