Miami Dolphins Odds to Win Super Bowl LIV

Suddenly, the Miami Dolphins are no longer a laughingstock. The Dolphins looked set to be one of the worst teams in NFL history through the first month of the season, but they have won their last two games. Although this team has little real talent, Miami has showed a lot of heart in beating the Jets and Colts in consecutive weeks to somewhat foil the front office’s plans of tanking for Tua Tagovailoa. Miami can make it three straight wins by upsetting the Buffalo Bills this week, but the Dolphins are currently a touchdown underdog on the football betting line.

Week 11 Preview

Buffalo needed to erase a fourth quarter deficit to walk away with a victory the first time these teams met this season. The Bills didn’t have much success on offense against the Dolphins, mustering just 305 total yards compared to 381 total yards for Miami, but they managed to win by 10 points due to some Miami miscues and a special teams touchdown.

Josh Allen appeared to be improving in his sophomore season in September, but it’s now clear that Allen was making the best out of playing against some awful opponents. Buffalo opened its season by facing the Jets, Giants, and Bengals, and those teams are a combined 4-24 this year. Allen has looked much less solid in his most recent outings, struggling to complete passes against both Philadelphia and Cleveland. The former top ten pick has completed under 60 percent of his passes for 6.8 YPA with 10 touchdowns and seven interceptions this year.

The Bills have a stable of reliable running backs, and they want to keep the ball on the ground and control the clock. Frank Gore and Devin Singletary have been the top two running backs for Buffalo, but Allen has gotten in on the action too to make this an above average ground game. However, Allen’s six fumbles have led to Sean McDermott second guessing his plans on running his quarterback more often this year.

Miami’s defense was on pace to be the worst in NFL history through the first four weeks of this season, and the Dolphins seemingly gave up on this end after dealing Minkah Fitzpatrick to Pittsburgh. The defense has surprisingly improved in recent weeks though, and this is no longer the worst defense in the NFL this year. This unit remains far from good, but it’s much better than what we saw early in the season.

The Dolphins have taken some steps forward on offense too. Ryan Fitzpatrick is living up to his reputation as a quarterback that’s talented enough to lead you to a few wins per season, making Miami’s offense more respectable than it had been in early October. Fitzmagic hasn’t taken ahold of South Beach like it did in Tampa Bay last season, but he has made opposing defenses at least give Miami’s offense some respect.

This offensive line has not been good without Laremy Tunsil. Miami has given up 35 sacks through nine games, and the running backs have averaged just 3.1 YPC. The Dolphins don’t have a run of 20 yards or more yet this season, and that ignominious feat is unlikely to end this weekend.

Week 10 Recap

Miami closed as a double-digit underdog per the NFL betting odds against Indianapolis last week, but the Dolphins managed to squeak out a 16-12 victory over the Colts.

Brian Hoyer started in place of an injured Jacoby Brissett for Indianapolis, and the veteran signal caller did not fare well against Miami. Hoyer completed just 18 of 39 passes for 204 yards with one touchdown and three interceptions in the loss. Those interceptions were very costly with one coming in Miami’s end zone, one giving the Dolphins the ball at Indy’s 12, and the final pick happening on his own 25 late in the fourth quarter.

The Dolphins did just enough on offense in the victory. Miami only managed to gain 229 total yards of offense, but Devante Parker had some nice grabs to seal the win.
