The Miami Dolphins and the Tennessee Titans will face off on Sunday in a big Week 5 game for both teams. The game takes place from Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens, Florida and has a scheduled start time of 1 p.m. ET. The game can be watched on TV on the CBS network or online through live stream via the link below.
The Dolphins fell back to 1-3 last week after being well beaten by the Cincinnati Bengals.
The Dolphins looked competitive in the opening quarter but after that they never looked in it and were completely shutout by the Bengals intense defense.
The Dolphins will know that they need to do better than they performed in that 22-7 defeat, and this game against the Titans is getting very close to a must win situation for Miami if they are to have any hopes of pushing for a postseason berth. Dropping back to 1-4 this week isn't an option and defeating opposition of the caliber of the Titans must be the goal if they are to stand any chance of making the Playoffs this season.
Earlier this week on NFL Thursday Night Football the Arizona Cardinals gained a valuable road win over the San Francisco 49ers.
Both teams entered the clash on 1-3, and both knew that they were facing almost must-win situations to salvage their seasons.
Following a tense first half the teams were level on 7-7, but the second half saw the Cardinals turn the screw and they pulled away to win the encounter 33-21.
The result moved the Cardinals onto a much more respectable 2-3 although they still have a lot more work to do over the coming few weeks to get themselves back into postseason contention. The 49ers meanwhile suffered their fourth defeat of the season in just five weeks and that leaves their season more or less in tatters. It's hard to see how they can turn their season around from here, and already it may be more about re-building for next season than having any realistic chance of making a run for the Playoffs this year.
Arizona managed to claim 17 points from three turnovers by the 49ers in the game, including two interceptions by Blaine Gabbert as well as a a fumble kickoff return by Chris Davis.
49ers coach Chip Kelly said after the game: "I don't think anybody played well on offense. Nobody. I don't think we protected well enough, I don't think we threw it well enough and we had too many drops and two interceptions."
Meanwhile, defensive lineman Calais Campbell said, "We've been saying all week it just starts with one. Just get one win and try to stack them. We've been a team in the past that can rip off a bunch of them. ... Now we have to figure out what we can do to keep that ball rolling."
