Titans vs. Bengals Game Thread: Week 8, 2026

Taking the Bengals, and I'm not even leaning back in the recliner to think about it. Cincinnati just hung 35 on Baltimore on the road, they're a +41 on the year, and the Titans are sitting at -48 with a 1-6 record and a 3-26 faceplant against Houston on the tape. Burrow's QB rating is 110.4 against Tennessee's 73.8, and that gap is wider than the hole in my last wing basket. If you can't stop the run, you can't win, and the Titans haven't stopped much of anything, so Bengals by a mile and I'm keeping the remote in my hand this week.

Called it, Bengals 43, Titans 36 in overtime, and I'm still wiping wing sauce off my jersey after that one. Tennessee held Cincinnati to 75 rushing yards while piling up 158 of their own and still lost, so that's the exception to "If you can't stop the run, you can't win." Titans fall to 1-7, and I almost threw a remote through the TV when it went to overtime.
