Titans Outlook for Vikings Game
The Titans are coming off a tough loss to the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 8. They will be looking to bounce back against the Vikings, who are also coming off a loss to the Dallas Cowboys. The Titans are currently 5-2 and in first place in the AFC South. The Vikings are 3-4 and in third place in the NFC North.
The Titans will need to play well in all three phases of the game to beat the Vikings. The offense will need to be efficient and score points. The defense will need to stop the Vikings' offense, which is led by quarterback Kirk Cousins and running back Dalvin Cook. The special teams will need to play well and avoid making any mistakes.
The Titans are a slight underdog against the Vikings, but they have a good chance to win if they play their best game. The game will be played at Nissan Stadium in Nashville, Tennessee.
