The Titans bounced back from a sub-par 2010 campaign, one which saw the team win just six games, by recording nine wins in Mike Munchak’s first season as head coach. For whatever reason, the odds makers, both offshore and Vegas based, do not envision Tennessee building off of last year’s respectable finish. Tennessee Titans 2012 NFL Predictions at Sportsbook.ag have Munchak’s troops favored, at -125 odds, to win fewer than 7.5 games and they are also a long shot to win the AFC South, drawing +450 odds to dethrone last year’s champion, the Houston Texans. Tennessee Titans Super Bowl Odds at the offshore book are not particularly encouraging either with the club lined at 60-1 odds to win Super Bowl XLVII.
Tennessee, while not especially dominant in any one area, performed well enough both offensively and defensively a season ago to finish above .500 and nearly secure a spot in the playoffs. Yet, despite the Titans performance and what appears to be an up and coming quarterback in second year player Jake Locker, few are sold on the team’s 2012 prospects.
Perhaps the schedule has something to do with the anticipated regression as Tennessee faces the Patriots, Chargers, Lions, Steelers, Bears, Jets, and Packers outside of division play. The daunting slate has Cantor Gaming of Las Vegas expecting a near nightmare scenario for Munchak and his staff. Cantor’s 2012 NFL regular season point spreads, which cover weeks one through 16, have the Titans favored in one game and listed as a pick’em in three others.
