Fortunes may be turning around for the Titans after losing three in a row. Sitting on a score of 17-10, they have looked like the better team, but there's still one more quarter to play. They took a big hit to their ego last Sunday, so a win here would be a pleasant pick-me-up.

If the Titans keep playing like this, they'll bump their record up to 4-7 in no time. On the other hand, the Panthers will have to make due with a 1-10 record unless they turn things around (and fast).

Preview

The Titans have been on the road for three straight, but on Sunday they'll finally head home. They will take on the Carolina Panthers at 1:00 p.m. ET on Sunday. Both teams took a loss in their last game, so they'll have plenty of motivation to get the 'W'.

It looks like Tennessee got the smaller half of the wishbone at Thanksgiving dinner. They suffered a painful 34-14 defeat at the hands of the Jaguars on Sunday. Tennessee has not had much luck with Jacksonville recently, as the team's come up short the last two times they've met.

Meanwhile, it looks like Carolina got the smaller half of the wishbone at Thanksgiving dinner. They found themselves the reluctant recipients of a 33-10 punch to the gut against the Cowboys on Sunday. The over/under was set at 43 points, so nice work oddsmakers; you were right on the money.

Tennessee bumped their record down to 3-7 with that loss, which was their ninth straight on the road dating back to last season. Those losses could be blamed on the team's lackluster offensive performance across that stretch, as they only averaged 12.2 points per game. As for Carolina, they are on a three-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 1-9.

In addition to losing their last games, the Panthers and the Titans failed to cover the spread. As for their next game, the Titans are the favorite in this one, as the experts expect to see them win by 3.5 points. This will be their first time playing as the favorites at home this season.
