Ron's Saturday NFL Divisional Playoffs ATS Selection

This should be an entertaining game overall but this is Joe Burrow's first road playoff game of his career and I think the Titans are going to be too much in the end. Tennessee gets Derrick Henry back and this Bengals' rush defense has struggled as of late. The Bengals allowed 7.4 yards per attempt on the ground the Raiders (6.4 to Josh Jacobs) in the Wild Card game and allowed over 200 rushing yards in Week 18 to the Browns. If the Bengals cannot stop Henry, this is going to be a very long day for the Bengals' defense, a defense that has also struggled mightily against opposing passing games all season long. The Titans' weakness this season was also its secondary, but that secondary sharpened up as the season carried on; that and the fact that the Titans put a ton of pressure on opposing QBs and ground games, opposing teams were not moving the ball much. The Titans allowed 275 or less total yards in three of its last five games to end the season and the defense was lights out down the stretch. I think the Titans are just too much for Joe Burrow and the Bengals here. You have to give credit to Cincinnati for even being in this spot, as not many people (including me) thought the Bengals would even make the postseason, let alone the second weekend. The run ends here, though, I will lay the points with the Titans.
