The Miami Dolphins (7-7) and Tennessee Titans (10-5) clash in an unquestionably important game for both teams in the AFC playoff race in Week 17. Kickoff from Nissan Stadium is scheduled for 1 p.m. ET Sunday. Below, we look at the Dolphins vs. Titans odds and lines; check back for our NFL picks and predictions.
The Dolphins are trying to stay alive in the AFC playoff picture as they battle for a wild-card spot with two weeks to go. They crushed the New Orleans Saints on Monday Night Football, dominating from start to finish en route to a 20-3 win. They’re now the seventh seed in the AFC and have won seven straight after losing seven in a row — the first team ever to do that in a single season.

The Titans stunned the San Francisco 49ers as 3.5-point underdogs in Week 16, winning 20-17 to bounce back from a loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers the week prior.
Tennessee is still just 2-3 in its last five games, but it is in control of the AFC South with a 10-5 record and currently holds the second overall seed in the AFC. This team looks vastly different than it did with RB Derrick Henry in the backfield, but the defense is playing well right now and has allowed just 36 points in its last three games.
