Why Bet on the Tennessee Titans?
Why should you consider betting on the Titans in this Week 1 opener? Because they have the best quarterback and running back in this matchup – by far. It’s nice that the Miami Dolphins have quarterback Ryan Tannehill back on the field for 2018 after he missed the entire 2017 campaign, but the fact of the matter is that Tannehill can’t hold Tennessee quarterback Marcus Mariota’s jock strap. The Titans also have a gifted running back in former Alabama star Derrick Henry that could be poised for a huge breakout season after being elevated to top dog status following the unexpected retirement of veteran DeMarco Murray. Tennessee has also gone 9-7 in each of the last two seasons, so they’ve built a winning mentality for their mostly young team.Team Statistics

Why Bet on the Miami Dolphins?
Why should you consider betting on Miami in this Week 1 opener? Outside of the fact that the Dolphins are playing at home and they’ve got plenty of motivation after going 6-10 in 2017 to miss out on the playoffs last season, there really aren’t many good reasons to back the Dolphins in this contest. Tennessee does have a first-time head coach in Mike Vrabel and they could take some time to learn his new ways, but other than that, the Dolphins just don’t look very attractive to me in this contest, even at home.Team Statistics
