Dan Karpuc: Geoff Swaim 1st TD Scorer (+9000)

This Titans offense plays a ton of two-TE sets and Swaim has played 507 snaps at the position this season, more than teammates Austin Hooper (459) and Chigozeim Okonkwo (330). Swaim was on the field for 24 snaps last week and 32 the week before as the rookie Okonkwo got a bit more playing time, but based on the fact that he will be on the field for about half of Tennessee’s offensive plays, I’ll take a flyer on him to find paydirt at 90/1 odds. These are some of the longest odds you can get and I’ll take a shot.

Lucy Burdge: Cowboys 20, Titans 14 Exact Final Score (+7000)

I like the Cowboys to win this TNF matchup against the Titans, but I’m hesitant to take them to cover the 11-point spread because I think this could be a closer game on the lower-scoring side. The Titans have scored 14 points in each of their last two games, both losses as they have lost their last five games, and the Cowboys’ last two games have had final scores with a difference of six points. And their win over the Texans was by five points. So I’m feeling some 20-14 final score in favor of the Cowboys vibes here in this game.

Kate Constable: Titans D/ST 1st TD Scorer (+4500)

The Titans come into Thursday night’s game against the Cowboys with five-straight losses. Not only do they need to win out to keep their postseason hopes alive, but they also need to get a little help from a few other teams. Offense hasn’t exactly been Tennessee’s forte throughout this losing streak, which means they’re going to have to rely on their defense to step up.

They’ll be going up against Dak Prescott who despite playing a great game last weekend, still threw an interception. He’s now thrown at least two interceptions in three of his last five games. While the Titans only have one defensive score all season, all it takes is for them to pick off one bad pass and take it into the end zone for this first TD scorer ticket to cash at +4500.

Matt Horner: Cowboys D/ST 2+ TD (+4500)

With Malik Willis in at QB for the Titans, anything is possible when it comes to turnovers. They will likely rely on Derrick Henry and the running game a lot, but if they find themselves down, that puts the weight on Willis to start making throws. He’s good for a pick-six against the aggressive Trevon Diggs or fumble return for a TD, maybe even two. The Titans special teams unit is also questionable, so an ST touchdown also isn’t out of the question.
