Titans at Dolphins Week 5 Pick
With the expected absence of starting QB Marcus Mariota, it’s logical to expect a lot of runs by RBs DeMarcus Murray and Derrick Henry. That strategy would go against the Dolphins strength this season. Miami has not allowed a team to exceed 3.1 yards per carry and only the Jets have surpassed 100 yards (103 yards on 3.0 YPC). On the other side of the ball, the best word to describe the Fish is putrid. The last two especially, that has seen the offense amass a combined 225 yards against the Jets and 186 against the Saints! Both teams’ pass defense hasn’t impressed, but with a back-up in for the Titans at QB and Jay Cutler’s struggles for the Fish the UNDER seems like the logical play here.
