With the Tennessee Titans Week 11 matchup being against the Houston Texans, we might see a closer game than expected. Although the AFC South is not in a close race for the postseason, divisional matchups are almost always competitive. We'll be taking a look at this Titans-Texans matchup with some of our Titans Week 11 predictions in mind.

Tennessee's defense has turned up the heat in recent weeks, as they're playing like an elite unit. The Texans are one of the worst teams in the league right now, which doesn't bode well for their chances on Sunday. There's a legitimate chance we see the Titans' defense dominate all day.

For more insight on the Titans' Week 11 matchup against the Texans, listen below:

The offense hasn't looked that great, but Tennessee is getting the job done regardless. D'Onta Foreman looked great in his last game and could be in line to produce another solid outing. Additionally, this matchup favors Tennessee heavily. Look for AJ Brown to take advantage of Houston's weak secondary and for Ryan Tannehill to open up his game. With that said, here are four bold Titans Week 11 predictions for their matchup against the Texans.

Titans Week 11 Predictions

4. Titans defense shuts out the Texans

Tennessee's front seven has been on a tear. The defensive line has been unstoppable as the Titans currently have 27 sacks, making them tied in second for the most sacks on the year. Jeffery Simmons is a monster on the inside, while Harold Landry and Denico Autry are dominating the exterior.

Meanwhile, the secondary has improved its pass coverage as well. Kevin Byard is playing at an elite level and is in the mix for the Defensive Player of the Year Award. If the Titans' defense plays as they have been, the Texans might not score throughout this game.

3. D'Onta Foreman goes off for 85+ rushing yards and 1 touchdown

Many believed Jeremy McNichols and Adrian Peterson would provide the one-two punch the Titans need in the run game. However, D'Onta Foreman has come out of nowhere after putting up a solid performance in Week 10. Look for Foreman to capitalize against this weak Houston defense and potentially put on the best performance of his career.

2. AJ Brown dominates with 125+ receiving yards and 3 touchdowns

With Julio Jones on IR, the Titans need AJ Brown to elevate his game. He's easily the best available receiver on the roster and will have a chance to show off his skills against the Texans. Houston doesn't have anybody on the roster capable of guarding Brown, which means he could be in for a field day.

1. Ryan Tannehill lights up the field with 275+ passing yards and 5 total touchdowns

Even though Tennessee has struggled to move the ball, Ryan Tannehill has maintained efficiency under center. Going up against the Texans is a nice opportunity for Tannehill and the rest of the Titans' offense to get on the same page.

For that reason, look for Ryan Tannehill to have a great performance. The Texans will do their best to slow him down, but the Titans are likely to prove to be too much for Houston to handle. We should see Tannehill all over the place, as he's a threat through the air and with his legs.
