In Week 10 The Tennessee Titans will travel to Miami to face the Dolphins in what will be Randy Moss' Tennessee debut. Moss was claimed last week off of waivers from the Titans. The Titans, 5-3, enter the game coming off of a loss against San Diego while the Dolphins lost to the Ravens last week.
NFL Picks, Week 10: Tennessee Titans Vs. Miami Dolphins
Believe it or not, Tennessee is the top scoring offense in the league through Week 9. They’ve scored over 30 points four times this season and over 20 points seven times. They don’t pass the ball -- 31st in pass attempts -- but that’s OK because Chris Johnson can handle things pretty well. He’s got 721 yards and eight TDs on the season and some think those numbers may shoot up with the arrival of Randy Moss. Who knows how much of the offense Moss will actually understand but his presence alone may help push Tennessee’s run game. Statistically the Dolphins defense is in the middle of the pack so from that standpoint Tennessee has an advantage here.
The Dolphins head into the game with Chad Pennington in at quarterback. Head coach Tony Sparano announced Pennington as the starter over Chad Henne this week after Henne's gone on a three game stretch with one TD pass to five interceptions. It's hard to predict how the offense will respond with Pennington at quarterback but he has performed well with them in the past.
The NFL odds say the Titans are 1.5 point favorites in Miami. I’m taking the Titans by a field goal or more. It’s hard to bet on Pennington coming in and immediately making a difference.
The game kicks off at 1:00 p.m. Sunday on CBS. Check out coverage of the game at Music City Miracles and The Phinsider.
