Sam Darnold’s MVP run continues, Ravens save season with win in Dallas
Sports Seriously’s Mackenzie Salmon ‘overreacts’ to the biggest news from Sunday’s slate of games.
Sports Seriously
Without Tua Tagovailoa in Week 3, the Miami Dolphins‘ offense looked inept, downright unwatchable at points. Throw in an injury to backup quarterback Skylar Thompson as well, and there’s no reason to expect fireworks in this Sunday’s game against the Tennessee Titans. That doesn’t mean the Dolphins can’t win though.
The Titans are 0-3 heading into Week 4. Quarterback Will Levis has been memed into oblivion through three weeks, with a costly turnover or sack happening at inopportune times in each of his team’s first three games. Against a Dolphins defense that ranks outside the top-20 in pressure rate, that could change though.

This is a game I would stay away from, but Miami’s defense has actually been pretty solid. No team has more giveaways than the Titans (8), and Tennessee is dead last in turnover differential (-7). Reason stands that the Dolphins will eventually figure out their offense, but quarterback play – whoever it ends up being back there – needs to be much, much better.
Quarterback play in this game will leave a lot to be desired. Will Levis has a propensity to give the football to the other team. Tyler Huntley is on pace to start for the Dolphins. Huntley probably gives Miami its best chance to win. Can Huntley consistently get Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle the football without committing costly mistakes? I think he can.
Tennessee gets its first win in primetime behind an impressive effort from Will Levis. I’ll lean towards the over here.
There will be plenty of bad offense in this one with some poor quarterback play. Luckily, Miami has more stars to leave this ugly game with a victory.
