The Miami Dolphins have won their last two and will look to make it three in a row when they travel to Metlife to take on the New York Jets. This is an AFC contest featuring the bottom teams in the division.
The Dolphins have lost 7 straight before earning wins against Houston and Baltimore. Although he did not start, Tua Tagovailoa came in the game and threw for 158 yards in the 22-10 win.
Tua has had a decent season although he has been limited due to injuries. In the games he has been a part of he averages 199.7 yards per game with seven touchdowns and four interceptions.
Miami is currently at the bottom of the AFC East. The Dolphins only average 17.7 points per game they are ranked 29th in opponents total yardage.
The Jets have seen 4 starting QBs this season. It started with Zach Wilson going down with a knee injury. Regardless of who is undercenter, this team has struggled. Veteran Quarterback, and former Ravens starter, Joe Flacco is going to start for New York on Sunday.
The Jets average 354.3 yards per game and 17.9 points per game. Their Defense ranks at the bottom of the Nation Football League. The Jets are allowing 32.9 points per game. The secondary in particular has held the Jets back as they are allowing 299.3 passing yards per game and allowing receivers to get open at will.
This is a game between two of the worst teams in the league. The Dolphins are 5-2-1 ATS in their last 8 vs. AFC East which shows how weak this division is. The Dolphins don’t get weak matchups often as they are usually the underdog. The Jets are 0-5 ATS vs. a team with a losing record. They don’t get it done against any one and with a healthy Tua, the Dolphins have the better weapons. I like Joe Flacco and remember his glory days in Baltimore, but he’s not the same guy and the Jets know that too. I look for the dolphins to cover this spread and win by a touchdown as they have the better offense.
