Jets vs Titans Picks & Predictions for Week 2: New York Grounds Tennessee Offense

Will Levis looked awful in Week 1 vs. the Bears, and the waters get even deeper this Sunday when the Jets' talented stoppers come to town. Meanwhile, Aaron Rodgers can lean on Breece Hall on offense en route to a comfortable triumph.

Two AFC teams searching for their first wins of the season will face off on Sunday as the Tennessee Titans welcome the New York Jets to Nissan Stadium.

The Jets struggled in the first healthy appearance for Aaron Rodgers in a New York uniform, but they are still favorites in the NFL odds over the Titans, who came up short against the Chicago Bears last weekend.

I’m fading Will Levis & Co. against this stout New York defense in my free Jets vs. Titans predictions and NFL picks for September 15.

Jets vs Titans prediction

My best bet
Jets -4 (-110 at BetMGM)

My analysis

Former Kentucky standout Will Levis had a rough day at the office in his first appearance for the Tennessee Titans. The rookie quarterback completed 19 of 32 passes for just 127 yards and a touchdown while throwing two interceptions. That included an unfortunate pick six that gave the Bears their winning score in the fourth quarter.

Levis did show a bit of ability with his legs, running four times for 36 yards, but he also took three sacks on the day. It wasn’t the easiest assignment for the rookie, as he was facing off against a capable Chicago defense. The problem is that things aren’t going to get any easier in Week 2 against the New York Jets

New York didn’t look like a defensive powerhouse against the San Francisco 49ers in their opener, allowing 32 points to the defending NFC champions. For the most part, however, it was death by a thousand cuts. The Jets defense held San Francisco to six Jake Moody field goals throughout the game while allowing only two touchdowns.

We shouldn’t expect that to be the norm against a New York defensive unit that is both talented and deep. The Jets allowed just 20.9 points per game last year and were among the best in the NFL on a play-by-play basis, giving up just 4.6 yards per play on the season. Almost all of the key players from that unit are back, and despite the final score against the 49ers, they again showed that it will be hard to sustain drives against this unit.

That’s bad news for Levis as he tries to adjust to the NFL level. He’ll have better days ahead, but they won’t come against the top defenses in the league, at least not right away.

On the other side of the ball, Aaron Rodgers will be eager to show that he still has something left in the tank at age 40 after a middling performance against San Francisco. Rodgers and the Jets are more capable of scoring than the Bears — whom the Tennessee defense almost entirely shut down last weekend — while New York is just as likely to force turnovers and get some points on defense or special teams, where Chicago truly exploited the Titans last week.

I like the Jets to win this game by at least a touchdown, so I'll gladly lay the four points.

Jets vs Titans same-game parlay

Jets -4

Under 41

Breece Hall anytime TD

Since I’m predicting the Jets defense to dominate, that dovetails nicely into a same-game parlay. I’ll pair Jets -4 with a bet on the Under at 41. I have little confidence in either offense, particularly when it comes to Levis and Tennessee.

Since someone’s going to have to score, I’m going with Breece Hall to pick up a touchdown on Sunday. Hall got 16 carries and five receptions in the Jets’ opener, and I expect New York to lean hard on him again.

Ed Scimia has been writing about the gaming industry for over 15 years. He graduated from Syracuse University with degrees in Magazine Journalism and Political Science in 2003, and has covered major gambling events like the World Series of Poker in his career. Since joining Covers in 2022, Ed has offered his sports betting analysis primarily on MLB, NFL, college football, and college basketball games, but is willing to take on any sport.

His betting strategy focuses more on finding line value based on deviations from the market rather than traditional handicapping, primarily shopping between DraftKings, FanDuel, and Fanatics in his home state of Connecticut, though he’s not afraid to do deep game analysis to find profitable bets at any book.

Outside of gambling, Ed is an avid curler who competes in mixed doubles on the World Curling Tour and runs a popular curling YouTube channel, Chess on Ice. That experience has come in handy during the Olympics, when he has proven to be a successful curling bettor as well. 

Ed's advice to new bettors is to always open multiple sportsbook accounts and check the odds at each before placing any bet. Successful sports betting is about consistently beating the closing line value, which requires finding spots where one book is offering odds far better than the rest of the market and jumping on those opportunities.
