Most recent games between Tennessee Titans and Miami DolphinsTennessee Titans
Five of the last seven regular season meetings have been played at Hard Rock Stadium. The clubs met there in the 2004 season opener (September 11th), a 17-9 Titans victory that was played on a Saturday rather than Sunday due to the impending landfall of Hurricane Ivan. ![]() Tennessee Titans running back Dexter McCluster (22) leaps to avoid a tackle against the Miami Dolphins during the first half at Nissan Stadium October 18th, 2015 . (Jim Brown-USA TODAY Sports) Most recently, the two teams squared off on November 11th, 2012. In that game, the Titans forced four turnovers en route to a 37-3 victory, which tied for the 12th largest margin of victory in Titans/Oilers history. The last meeting at Nissan Stadium occurred on October 18th, 2015, when the Dolphins defeated the Titans 38-10. The Dolphins forced four turnovers and produced six sacks on defense in the contest, while on the other side of the ball they generated 434 total yards, including 180 rushing yards. The Dolphins began play in 1966 as the American Football League’s first expansion franchise. Playing the Dolphins twice a year from 1966-69, the Oilers won five of eight games before 1970, when the Oilers moved to the newly-formed AFC Central Division and the Dolphins began play in the AFC East. The teams have met in the postseason just once. In 1978, the Oilers defeated the Dolphins 17-9 at the Orange Bowl for Houston’s first playoff win since 1961. The Oilers continued their postseason play on the road, winning at the New England Patriots before falling to the Pittsburgh Steelers in the AFC Championship Game. Earlier in the 1978 season, the Oilers and the Dolphins were featured in a memorable Monday Night game, a 35-30 Oilers win that included four rushing touchdowns by Earl Campbell.
