Judging by the Tennessee Titans vs. Miami Dolphins Week 4 odds, the visiting team is more likely to win. This may seem strange given that they are 0-3 in the 2024 NFL, but there’s an explanation. The Titans are favorites, albeit narrow, because the Dolphins will be without their starting quarterback Tua Tagovailoa, who’s on the injury list due to a concussion.

The Tennessee Titans are one of only three teams in the American Football Conference (AFC) that are still without a single win in the 2024 NFL. In Week 1, they lost to the Chicago Bears 24:17 even though they had a 17:3 lead at the halftime break.
In Week 2, they lost to the New York Jets by the same score. They did okay in that game as well, but Aaron Rodgers’ magic brought the Jets their first win of the season.
Then, in their most recent NFL game, they lost to the Green Bay Packers. The final score was 30:14 for the Packers, but the Titans defense wasn’t entirely to blame for the blowout – one of Green Bay’s TDs came as a result of a turnover.
That said, the Titans can be confident their defensive team is going to do okay in the MNF game, especially if Tua Tagovailoa remains sidelined for the Dolphins.
After three weeks of NFL action, the Miami Dolphins are bottom last when it comes to points per game with an average of just 11.0. In the opening round of the 2024 season, they beat the Jacksonville Jaguars 20:17. They did it with QB Tua Tagovailoa on the field.

In Week 2 against the Buffalo Bills, he suffered a concussion because of which he missed the Week 3 game, and why he’ll miss the one on Monday. Without Tua, the Dolphins scored just three points against the Seattle Seahawks.
Their defense didn’t do much better either, conceding 24 points. In fact, Miami’s defense has been abysmal in 2024. With 24.0 points allowed per game, their defensive team is 11th-worst in the league. The good news for them is that Tennessee is even worse with 26.0.
One thing is certain – the Tennessee Titans vs. Miami Dolphins game won’t see too many points. Both teams are expected to focus on running the ball, which is something the Titans are (slightly) better at.
