Neither the Titans nor the Dolphins are going to compete for a Super Bowl this season. At least, that will remain true barring any huge overachievements (not to mention injuries or underachievements from their division foes).

Entering 2018, Miami sits at +10,000 to win a title (tied with the Buffalo Bills, Chicago Bears, New York Jets, Cleveland Browns and Cincinnati Bengals for last place). Tennessee sits at +4,500, No. 21 in the league.
All that said, these two are entering important years when it comes to their futures.
Those years kick off at 1:00 p.m. ET in Miami, Florida.
Tennessee Titans
Tennessee closed out the 2017 NFL campaign with a 9-7 record straight up and an 8-7-1 record against the spread.
The team successfully earned a playoff berth (first time in nine years) and found a way to get past the Chiefs on the road in a wild-card contest that gave fans in Music City unreasonable optimism entering a Round 2 game with the New England Patriots.
That game against the Pats saw the Titans strike first, giving fanatics even more false hope.
Then, New England went full Pats on Tennessee and closed out the Titans’ season in blowout fashion, 35-14.

In this Week 1 contest, it’ll be important for Marcus Mariota to get off to a good start considering his touchdown/turnover ratio was unfavorable last season. But there’s good news here for Titans fans.
Tennessee will have the edge in both the running game and the defensive game.
No, that may not translate to quarterback success on the surface. But if the run game can open up opportunities for Mariota, only good things can happen.
The fact that he’ll have an opportunity to thrive against a defense that could struggle? That’s an added bonus that the Titans should look to exploit once the run game gets going.
Miami Dolphins
Miami had an odd season in 2017. The Jay Cutler experiment was one that had folks excited—everyone except Jay Cutler, that is.
The most apathetic quarterback maybe in league history failed to show any sort of enthusiasm (shocker), yet there was hope until late in the year that he could channel some of his old fire power.
As it turn out, Miami fell to a 6-10 record straight up and went just 5-9-2 against the spread.

The Dolphins don’t exactly have momentum on their side here, having closed out last season just 2-6.
This may be the year Miami goes into full tank mode (probably a year too late), and we may see the early returns on that “effort” in Week 1 against Tennessee.

4* Free NFL Betting Prediction: Tennessee ATS
Tennessee opened as a two-point favorite in many books, and that has dropped to 1.5.
We’re not worried about that, however, as we’ve got the Titans winning between seven and 10 points when this one’s all said and done.
NFL Free Week 1 Score Prediction: Tennessee Titans 28 – Miami Dolphins 20
Keep an eye on how well Miami plays against the Titans’ run game early. That will set the tone for how Tennessee plays late: conservative or seeking big plays through the air with Miami’s defense focused in between the tackles.
