Miami Dolphins - NFL Betting Analysis
Last week, the Dolphins picked up a conference win, after taking down the Pittsburgh Steelers by a score of 16-10. In terms of betting, Miami did not cover the spread in their win, as they entered as the -7.5 point favorites. With an over-under betting line of 44, the two teams fell below that figure as they combined for 26. In their win over Pittsburgh, the Dolphins held a 6-point lead heading into the 4th quarter at 16-10. However, their 6 point victory was not enough to cover the point spread. Through 7 games, the Dolphins have an ATS record of 3-4. So far, they have an over-under record of 2-5. This week's betting total of 51.5 is higher than the line in their previous games.
As the Dolphins prepare to take on Detroit, they are ranked 19th in points per game at 21.0. Look for the team to put together a strong offensive performance vs a Lions defense giving up 32 points per game. Throughout the game, Miami should be able to move the ball through the air, as they are the 3rd ranked team in terms of passing yards. In addition, they are facing off against a defense that has been vulnerable in the secondary. On the ground, our projections show that the Dolphins' offense will have its problems. Even though they have a decent matchup against Detroit, look to Miami to come up with fewer rush yards than their season average of 85.43.
Detroit Lions - NFL Betting Analysis
This week, the Detroit Lions are hoping to get back in the win column, after falling 24-6 to the Dallas Cowboys. The loss was costly, as it came against a NFC opponent. In terms of betting, Detroit not only lost the game but failed to cover the spread as 7.0 point underdogs. The two teams combined point total of 30 remained below the betting line of 49. The Lions were not able to make a comeback in last week's game, as they trailed Dallas by a score of 10-6 heading into the final quarter. Through 6 games, the Lions have an ATS record of 3-3. So far, they have an over-under record of 4-2. This week's betting total of 51.5 is slightly higher than the line in their previous games.
Heading into this week's matchup, the Lions offense is averaging 24.33 points per game, placing them 9th in the NFL. Look for the team to put together another strong offensive performance, as they are facing a Dolphins defense that is ranked 24th in points per game. Throughout the game, Detroit should be able to move the ball through the air, as they are the 9th ranked team in terms of passing yards. In addition, they are facing off against a defense that has been vulnerable in the secondary. A key matchup to watch through the game is if Detroit will be able to run the ball with their usual effectiveness. Even though they are averaging 145.67 yards per game on the ground, look for them to struggle against a defense that can be tough to run against.
