Buoyed by Gordon’s presence in the backfield, Philip Rivers continued his strong season by throwing for two touchdowns and a 117.6 rating last week. The veteran Rivers had an easy time of it in his last meeting with Miami, amassing 311 passing yards and three scores in a 30-14 victory on Dec. 20. Trusted target Antonio Gates has reeled in a touchdown pass in consecutive outings, increasing his total to a team-high four and career tally to 108. Tyrell Williams also had a touchdown reception last week and leads the club with 595 yards receiving.
San Diego was a 43-35 winner in its last match at home against the Titans. They covered the -3.5-point spread as favorites, while the total score of 78 sent OVER bettors to the payout window.

With Ajayi’s workload at an all-time high, quarterback Ryan Tannehill is averaging 201.7 yards per contest during Miami’s three-game winning streak — with just 149 coming against the Jets. “Whatever it takes,” Tannehill said. “Obviously, (149 yards) was plenty last week. If we need 300 this week, then that’s what we need. It’s just a matter of game by game (doing) whatever it takes to move the chains and put points on the board.” Jarvis Landry, who has a team-leading 49 receptions, sat out Thursday’s practice with a shoulder injury and Kenny Stills did the same with an ailing calf, but both wideouts are expected to play on Sunday.
