NFL 2015 Season: Miami Dolphins vs Tennessee Titans, Preview, Prediction & Predicted Lineup

Tennessee Titans quarterback Marcus Mariota (#8).

The Miami Dolphins (1-3) are reeling at the moment with three straight defeats following their season-opening win against the Redskins. They are scheduled to face another struggling squad, the Tennessee Titans (1-3), at the Nissan Stadium in Nashville on Sunday to try and find life after Joe Philbin's recent sacking.

Miami, who is coming off a bye week, was defeated the New York Jets, 27-14, in Week 4 at the Wembley Stadium as starting quarterback Ryan Tannehill struggled the whole match in London, as per Heavy.

The 27-year-old signal caller threw a dismal 19-of-44 passes for 198 yards, two touchdowns, but with two interceptions and three sacks for a low QBR of 13.0.

Rumors that Tannehill may be shipped after the Week 4 went out because of his poor performance, but instead their head coach, Philbin, was fired in the aftermath.

Meanwhile, rookie no. 2 draft pick Marcus Mariota and the Titans are also trying to find their rhythm so far in the season.

Tennessee lost another close one, a 14-13 affair against Buffalo, in Week 5 at home as they blew away their lead in the closing seconds courtesy of Bills first-year starter Tyrod Taylor, as reported by Yahoo Sports.

The Titans had been letting their opponents rally from behind in their recent matches and head coach Ken Whisenhunt would like to put an end to that in this match against Miami.

Prediction: Titans win, 21-17.
