With the Steelers vs. Titans showdown on Sunday likely to be a competitive game, here are the bold predictions for the upcoming matchup

Last Sunday was a pleasant treat for Steelers fans, as they decimated a surprisingly bad Browns team. Going back to the bold predictions from last week, some of them certainly came true, and they surely aided the Steelers in securing the victory. The Titans are likely to be a far tougher opponent though, as their above-average defense and a physical offense have also helped them enter this matchup undefeated.

The two plans seem pretty set. The Titans will want to utilize their excellent running game to wear down the Steelers defense before surprising them with quick passes near the red zone. Their defense will want to utilize their pass rush in order to limit the Steelers’ passing game as well. For the Steelers, they will try and keep with their balanced approach that has help field one of the more consistent offenses in the NFL. As well, they will try and shut the rushing offense down with the best rush defense in the league in order for their pass rushers to be given an open invitation to rush the quarterback.

While those philosophies are the goal, there are still plenty of bold predictions that can be made about these two teams. Perhaps an underutilized player goes off or a stud is kept in check. These will likely be what determines the final outcome of the game. With all of this said, here are five bold predictions for the Steelers vs. Titans this Sunday.
