"This franchise has only hosted five playoff games in Tennessee – and only two since the 2002 season. The loss to the Ravens to end last season was the Titans’ first home playoff game since the 2008 season, when they also lost to the Ravens."
last year, were there any fans in attendance for the playoff game? if so, at what % capacity? i dont think it was an empty stadium like earlier in reg season, but it might have still been under limited capacity rules. wondering if this year with a truly packed house if there could be a bit of an uptick in the "HFA" for the Titans faithful. it's not exactly Lambeau or "Brady/Belichick in Foxboro" as far as the toughest place to play.... BUT, i think there is a sneaky-good HFA in Tenn and after a few playoff appearances with this coach/team they are primed to break thru (with at least one home win, this weekend). i will likely lay the points as i'm guessing most of the world and the casual bettors will see Joe Burrow getting +3.5 or +4 and they will jump in with both fists, but Vegas doesn't give money away. i think Cincy missing their D-tackle will prove their undoing.
