Matchups We Love
Tua Tagovailoa (QB, MIA)
Last week was another easy win for Miami, who keeps throttling bad teams. Cue the Titans, who are 4-8 with a subpar roster. The main drawback for Tagovailoa is they don't need him late in the game. They trounce their opponent in the first three quarters, the defense creates turnovers, and then they pound the rock to close it out. He's a great bet for 250 yards and two touchdowns, but hitting his ceiling has happened primarily in comebacks or shootouts. The one caveat to that this week is the Titans are easier to throw on, so they may keep airing it out.
Dolphins WRs
Tyreek Hill moved 157 yards closer to his goal of 2,000 last week. He also got wide open in the secondary twice, speaking about how the defense played man coverage on him in his interview. When the drive ends that way, no one else can contribute, including Jaylen Waddle, whose day was mediocre. The matchup should encourage more passing, so it's not the week to fade Waddle.
Dolphins RBs
Despite the tougher matchup, this duo is locked in. Raheem Mostert was the clear starter last week in the first half, but De'Von Achane made his mark late with two trips to the end zone and over 100 scrimmage yards. Achane and Waddle are both fantastic options in a game they should win handily with Achane as the preferred choice.
Matchups We Hate
None
Other Matchups
Derrick Henry (RB, TEN)
Henry repeated his Week 12 performance with 21 carries for 102 yards and two scores against the Colts in Week 13. He also exited with a head injury but did not enter the concussion protocol. Unfortunately, the run of easy opponents and bad defenses comes to an end. The game script will almost certainly favor Tyjae Spears, making Henry a lot tougher to rely on. Spears earned six targets against the Colts, which could easily happen again this week. Henry falls outside the top 20 with Spears as an intriguing flex option.
Titans Passing Attack
Will Levis found DeAndre Hopkins to take the lead late in the game and played well in overtime, but came up just short. Miami's defense has been deadly since the return of Jalen Ramsey, which is problematic for Hopkins. Treylon Burks was officially active last week, but only played 12% of the snaps. The one player who is re-emerging is their tight end, Chigoziem Okonkwo. They'll need to throw to attempt a comeback, so the volume should be there, but the ceiling is lower with minimal scoring upside. Hopkins drops outside the top 24 and Okonkwo moves into flex territory.
Notable Injuries
Jeffery Simmons (knee) - OUT
Terron Armstead (knee/ankle) - QUESTIONABLE
