AFC South meets NFC South as the Atlanta Falcons host the Tennessee Titans get the Week 2 NFL preseason schedule underway. Atlanta finished second in its division last season with an 8-9 record and kicked off their preseason campaign with a 17-10 loss to the Detroit Lions. The Titans finished bottom of their division last season with a 3-14 record and lost their preseason opener 29-7 to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, but they are hoping first overall draft pick Cam Ward will help them turn their fortunes around in 2025.
Kickoff from Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta is set for 7 p.m. ET. Tennessee is a 3-point favorite in the latest Falcons vs. Titans odds, while the over/under for total points scored is 37.5.

R.J. White’s best bets for Falcons vs. Titans on Friday:
- Titans -3 (-108)
- Under 37.5 (-108)
- Bonus pick: Cameron Ward to throw a TD on first drive +500 (DraftKings)
Titans -3 (-108)
Neither of these opponents won their preseason openers, but the expert liked what he saw from Tennessee. Ward went 6-for-6 on his passes on a touchdown drive, while the combination of Easton Stick and Emory Jones went 19-for-23 and a touchdown between them.
“I like all three Tennessee QBs over the two Atlanta QBs we’ll be likely to see on Friday, and that sets this up to be a 24-13 type of win for the Titans,” White said. New users can bet it using the latest bet365 bonus code to get $150 in bonus bets after placing a $5 bet:
Under 37.5 (-108)
“Last week saw a ton of scoring for Week 1 of an NFL preseason with most games shooting over,” White said. “These two teams did not pull their weight in the trend, combining for 17 points over seven quarters. I expect better from the Titans in this matchup with their good depth at QB and RB, but I don’t know that Atlanta will hold up its end of the bargain to get this game into the 40s.” New users can bet this line using the latest FanDuel promo code and get $300 in bonus bets instantly at Fanduel if your $5 bet wins:
Bonus pick: Cameron Ward to throw a TD on first drive +500 (DraftKings)
“Ward threw two incompletions on his first professional drive and then went 6 for 6 with a touchdown pass once he got back on the field. I expect him to be more dialed in from the jump here, and that makes this one of the better longshot sprinkles we can make on the weekend. The odds imply Ward has a 1-in-6 chance of throwing a TD on the first drive, and I might make it closer to 20%.” New users who want to make this pick can target the DraftKings promo code, which offers $200 in bonus bets instantly plus over $200 off NFL Sunday Ticket:
