Miami Dolphins vs Tennessee Titans Prediction 

Both of these teams come into this matchup with questions about the quarterback position, but one team will walk away from this game with a win (probably). Tennessee is 0-3 to start the season and Levis has not produced at the quarterback position. The Titans have not scored more than 17 points in any of their three games and practically gave away the first game against the Bears.

Miami is dealing with Tua’s injury at quarterback and the starter is up in the air for this game, so it is tough to know what this Miami offense will look like. I can’t believe I am going to say this, but I am going to go with Levis and the Titans to get this win, as I really don’t like the Miami quarterback room right now.
