This game has a few interesting headlines on the surface of it.

First, it’s the Ryan Tannehill game.

This is also going to be an interesting matchup between two old Patriot assistant coaches, both of which built their success on the defensive side of the ball.

The Miami Dolphins will be going up against their old quarterback in this late-season matchup against a good playoff team from last season. This will be a great test for the Dolphins as they try to round into playoff form and build momentum for the post-season tournament.

The Titans running game needs no introduction and if Ryan Tannehill can perform for the Titans the same way he has over the last few seasons, this Titans team will be good again. I was always a supporter of Tannehill, recognizing his weaknesses but believing that he could be a good quarterback with a strong running game and solid defense to support him. The Titans apparently agreed with that philosophy and Mike Vrabel has built a solid team off the back of Derrick Henry.

I could see Miami really struggling against Derrick Henry in this one, and Ryan Tannehill will probably want to prove a thing or two to Dolphins front office.

Dolphins record: 10-6
