Miami Dolphins Betting
Outlook: New QB, New Attitude
Check free picks at Gameadvisers.com,
the Dolphins are 4-2 ATS this season, and the under is 4-2 in their six games.
With Ryan Fitzpatrick at quarterback, the offense ranked 22nd in total yards
(354.3 yards per game), 17th in passing (249.2 yards per game), 12th in scoring
(26.7 points per game) and 22nd in rushing (105.2 yards per game).
The defense ranks third in the NFL in
points allowed (18.8 points per game) but 16th in total yards (260.2 yards per
game), 16th against the pass (236 yards per game) and 19th against the run
(124.2 yards per game).
Fitzpatrick threw for 1,535 yards in six
games with 10 touchdowns and seven interceptions. He gives way to
Tagovailoa, who has thrown two passes for nine yards since suffering a
season-ending leg injury while playing for Alabama last November.
The Dolphins have allowed 10 sacks in six
games this season and will need to protect their first-rounder against the
Rams' vaunted pass rush.
Running back Myles Gaskin leads the
Dolphins in rushing with 340 yards and one touchdown. Fitzpatrick is
second in yards (135) and TD (two), while Jordan Howard has three touchdowns
with only 14 yards.
Wide receiver DeVante Parker is likely to
be Tagovailoa's top target. On the season, he has 29 catches for 364 yards
and two touchdowns, while wide receiver Preston Williams is averaging 17.8
yards per catch with three scores. Tight end Mike Gesicki has 18 catches
for 281 yards and two touchdowns, and Gaskin has 27 catches out of the
backfield.
The defense has 17 sacks, five
interceptions and four fumble recoveries, which have
kept teams out of the end zone despite the yards allowed. Cornerback Xavier
Howard has four interceptions, while defensive end Emmanuel Ogbah has five
sacks.

is 44.5 points, and the Dolphins are a +138 home underdog on the moneyline.
Betting Analysis
The under has hit nine times combined for
these teams in 2020, as they both have great scoring defenses. Given that
the Dolphins are playing a brand new rookie quarterback against Donald, Ramsey
and company, don't expect much scoring in this game.
The travel is rough for the Rams as well,
going cross country for an early start on a short week.
