Tennessee Titans vs. San Francisco 49ers Odds

Tennessee Titans vs. San Francisco 49ers odds opened at 49ers -4 and have only moved up a half point at half the online sportsbooks.   Almost 85 percent of the spread action was on San Francisco though around 90 percent of the money line action was flowing the Titans way.  The Titans winning outright would pay $16.50 for every $10 bet on the money line at Sportsbetting.com, which was also offering odds at -4 on the spread

Some tidbits from NFL.com:

Despite Frank Gore ripping off a 66-yard first-quarter score and the 49ers being ahead through most of three quarters, last week's play calling was still extremely conservative. Coach Mike Singletary indicated he may open things up for QB Alex Smith this week and there is no better time to do so than against Tennessee's league-worst pass defense.

While it wasn't a spectacular performance, Vince Young was efficient and controlled in his first start last week. The Niners boast a better defense than the Jaguars, but Young's mission remains the same: Avoid mistakes, make some timely throws and keep plays alive using his scrambling ability.

Some other important things to consider before betting on this game:

The Titans ran for 305 yards, with an average of 6.2 yards per carry, against Jacksonville in Week 8 but the 49ers are holding opponents to just 85 yards a game on the ground (second best in the league) and that does not bode well for Tennessee.

The Titans have a minus-10 turnover ratio, however, there were no turnovers with Vince Young coming in as quarterback last week so this stat may not hold a lot of weight.

After a home blowout loss to Atlanta and two road losses in Houston and Indianapolis, the 49ers will have plenty to prove at home this weekend.

The 49ers are expected to run lots of blitzes. 

The Sagarin power ratings system does suggest that San Francisco can beat Tennessee by more than 10 points in this game, however, the impact of Young is not factored into this rating.

Tennessee beat San Francisco by more than 10 points at home in 2005, the only time this decade these two teams have met.
