Injury Update
When it comes to NFL Week 17 matchups, the Dallas Cowboys and Tennessee Titans may end up being a game between two teams in search of a purpose. The Cowboys had to fight off injury adversity early in the season that made their pursuit of an NFC East crown difficult, while Tennessee has had a hard time with inconsistency.
Cowboys vs. Titans Betting Preview
Missing Dak Prescott early in the season is sure to skew Cowboys vs Titans stats. Dallas was a much different team in the absence of Prescott than it was without him. The Dallas Cowboys have been leaning on their running game and asked the backup quarterbacks to not make too many mistakes.
Dallas will also need to lean on its defense, which has the potential to have an outstanding pass rush. NFL stats show that second-year linebacker Micah Parsons has grown into a talented player who is capable of causing havoc. Cowboys vs Titans odds also show this game may be a game where the outcome is decided by the team that makes fewer mistakes.
Tennessee Titans veteran quarterback Ryan Tannehill has the capability to be an effective game manager. However, Tannehill often doesn’t take too many risks in the passing game and is prone to blowups on occasion with throwing interceptions. Still, looking at games on the NFL shows that Tannehill’s steady leadership has helped Tennessee climb up the AFC standings.
It does help that Tannehill is supported by a strong running game led by superstar running back Derrick Henry. Henry has surprising speed for a back his size and can break away from defenders not ready for him.
Rivalry History
NFL stats show that while the two teams haven’t met much in their respective histories, Dallas leads what has been a tightly-contested series 8-7. The Cowboys and Titans first met in 1970, when Tennessee was still the Houston Oilers, which was a 52-10 Dallas win.
Matchup Trends
The NFL standings haven’t usually been impacted when these two teams meet because they match up so infrequently.
Venue Information
The Titans have played in Nissan Stadium since 1999. Many NFL teams have played in Tennessee’s home stadium since the team settled there permanently after initially splitting time between Nashville and Memphis after moving from Houston.
Betting Tips for Dallas Cowboys at Tennessee Titans
Cowboys vs Titans stats shows that in an ideal world, this could be a battle between two playoff-bound teams late in the season. However, injury concerns on both sides could also make this a meeting between two teams thinking about 2023. Tennessee will likely have too much firepower on offense for the Cowboys to keep up.
The Titans should win this one in a low-scoring affair. When it comes to the NFL schedule, this may not be one of the week’s better matchups.
