Hello and welcome to another edition of 'Live Blogging on Shish on Football'. This Afternoon it is the Tennessee Titans taking on Miami Dolphins. The Titans are coming off their 1st Playoff Appearance since 2008. While the Dolphins are coming off a 6-10 season, after returning to the Playoffs in 2016.

The Titans are hoping that they will make in-roads from their playoff season from a year ago. They also want to take the bad taste of last year's defeat the Patriots in the AFC Divisional Playoff out of their mouth. 

Meanwhile the Dolphins are looking like they are in a make or brake season for both Head Coach Adam Gase and Quarterback Ryan Tannehill. If the Dolphins don't return to the Playoffs, it is possible that both Gase and Tannehill will not return next season.

It is Tennessee Titans taking on Miami Dolphins, coming up shortly.
