Welcome to the bottom of the barrel, folks. The Texans and Titans roll into Week 6 both sitting at 0-4, and if you're expecting fireworks, you're watching the wrong game. These two offenses have been about as explosive as a wet firecracker. Tennessee is limping along at 13.75 points per game with an anemic attack that can barely crack 270 total yards. Houston's been slightly less pathetic at 21.0 per game, but their defense is a sieve, surrendering 27.25 per contest.

Here's the thing: divisional games have a way of turning into ugly rock fights, especially when neither team has anything to brag about. The Titans can't pass (181.5 yards per game) and can't run (89.0 yards), which makes you wonder how they're even scoring at all. Combined, these squads are averaging 34.75 points per game through four weeks, and that's with some garbage-time padding.

The sharp money agrees—this total has dropped from 39.5 to 38.0, and DarkHorse AI is backing the under 38.0 with 4/5 confidence. When two winless teams meet and neither can consistently move the ball, expect a slog. Take the under and thank us later.
