Division foe St. Louis will host them this Thursday night on NFL Network.
The Titans (1-2) got their first win of the season last week and Jake Locker had the best game of his career with 378 passing yards with 2 TD. However, he is not getting much help from RB Chris Johnson and they will be facing a Houston defense that ranks in the top 5 on the league in both pass and run defense.
There is a good chance they could get back on track in this game facing the Jets (2-1), who are at home, but lost their defensive leader in CB Darrelle Revis in their last game. NFL lines have the 49ers as 4-point road favorites with a total of 41.5.

The Ravens got over their tough 1-point loss to the Eagles with a solid win over the Patriots in their last game and now face a winless Browns’ team that is struggling on both sides of the ball.
The Dolphins got their first win of the season last week and while they have a solid rushing offense and defense the same cannot be said about their passing offense and defense.
Both the Bucs and the Cowboys had impressive opening season wins, but each lost last week. The Bucs had a big lead over the Giants, but their pass defense let them down and they ended up losing.
The Bills are coming off their first win of the season where they looked solid on both sides of the ball.
The Bears want to forget their last game when Jay Cutler was intercepted 4 times and was sacked 7 times and during that game he let his offensive line know how he felt.
Both the Giants and the Panthers rebounded from season opening losses and the panthers looked very impressive last week beating the Saints at home.
Both teams in this AFC match up lost their season openers and while Oakland did not play that badly the same cannot be said for the Dolphins. Ryan Tannehill did not have a good debut throwing 3 INT and he had the lowest QB rating by a Miami QB since the 2007 season.
Both the Saints and Panthers lost their season openers and one of these NFC South teams will be in a 0-2 hole early in the season. After breaking the passing yardage record last season he struggled in his first game not completing 50% of his passes after completing over 70% last season.
The Pats had no problem winning their season opener and while it is no surprise their offense played well it was a little surprising that their D played well. The Arizona Cardinals also won their season opener after Kevin Kolb came into the game and he will get the start in this game and has another chance to become the starter for Arizona if he plays well.
