The Tennessee Titans will look to get back on track in Week 15 when they meet the Los Angeles Chargers at SoFi Stadium on Sunday afternoon.
The Titans come into this game losers of three straight in total, but also two blowout losses in the wake of the team unexpectedly firing general manager Jon Robinson, which has only made this losing streak seem worse.
Thankfully for the Titans, they maintain a comfortable lead in the AFC, but concern about a potential collapse will only grow until Tennessee gets back to its winning ways.
Despite being the better team, the Chargers find themselves on the outside of the playoff picture currently, but they are just one spot behind the No. 7 seed, the New England Patriots.
Los Angeles comes into this game with two wins in its last three, including a Week 14 victory over the Miami Dolphins that was an impressive showing, especially from the defense.
It comes as no surprise that the Chargers are favored to win this game, but are there any experts out there picking the Titans? Find out now in our Week 15 expert picks round-up.

Sporting News
Vinnie Iyer: Chargers 27, Titans 23 – “The Titans have dropped three consecutive games to the Bengals, Eagles and Jaguars. They are still relying a lot on Derrick Henry and the running game, but the passing game and pass defense are becoming huge liabilities tied somewhat to piling-up injuries. Henry can smash against the Chargers’ front but at the same time Justin Herbert can destroy the Titans’ secondary. Herbert follows what fellow young guns Joe Burrow and Trevor Lawrence did.”
Bill Bender: Titans 26, Chargers 23 – “The Chargers are starting to click now that receivers Mike Williams and Keenan Allen are healthy, and that’s going to stress a Tennessee pass defense that ranks 31st in the NFL at 283.7 points per game. The Titans are on a three-game losing streak and have not forced a turnover in four games. Will desperation kick in? Derrick Henry helps Tennessee control the clock, and they pull out a shocker on the road. “

Gregg Rosenthal: Chargers 27, Titans 24 – “The Chargers are going to make us believe in them again, aren’t they? I would love to know the statuses of Bolts S Derwin James and RT Trey Pipkins, as well as Titans DL Denico Autry, for this matchup, but a healthy Mike Williams is enough to make this Los Angeles passing game whole. The Titans aren’t getting the same consistent pass rush and their cornerbacks aren’t big enough to hang with Williams. Tennessee will be able to run, and Brandon Staley’s game plans only seem to work every other week, but L.A. is the better pick in a shootout. If the Chargers win this game, they’ll be in control of a playoff spot, considering their upcoming schedule.”

Michael David Smith: Chargers 28, Titans 21 – “The Titans are probably going to win the AFC South, but that says more about the division than it says about them. The Chargers should beat the Titans handily.”
Mike Florio: Chargers 30, Titans 24 – “The Chargers are finding their footing, and the Titans have fallen and can’t get up.”
