Why the Dolphins can cover
Miami’s struggles against good teams have been an issue, but the Jets are in disarray. They have allowed 40 sacks and the offense puts up just 270 yards and 15 points per game, both 30th in the NFL. Their only hope could be the run game, but the Dolphins allow 3.8 yards per carry (seventh in NFL). They also have 31 sacks and intercepted three passes last week. Miami’s defense ranks in the top 15 in the league in both passing and rushing yards allowed.
The Dolphins are 6-4 against the spread and 2-1 ATS in the division. They score the most points in the NFL (30.5 per game) and are No. 1 in passing offense (291) and No. 2 in rushing (143). Quarterback Tua Tagovailoa has thrown for 2,934 yards (third in NFL), and receiver Tyreek Hill has been at the top of his game. In his second season in Miami, he has more receiving yards through 10 games (1,222) than any player in the Super Bowl era and has nine touchdowns. See who to back at SportsLine.
Why the Jets can cover
New York is 4-4 ATS as an underdog and 3-2 ATS at home. While Miami has had problems with winning teams, the Jets have beaten the Bills and handed the Eagles their only loss so far. The offense has been having trouble, but running back Breece Hall (544 yards) has home-run ability and the Jets average 4.6 yards per carry, fourth-best in the NFL. Hall also has 296 receiving yards, wide receiver Garrett Wilson has 651 yards and tight end Tyler Conklin has 35 catches.
The Jets’ strength is a defense that is fourth in the NFL in yards allowed per play (4.9) and fifth against the pass (178.5 yards per game). New York has 16 takeaways, with Jordan Whitehead nabbing four of the team’s 10 interceptions. Tagovailoa has thrown eight interceptions. Cornerback Sauce Gardner can keep almost any receiver in the NFL quiet, and the Jets will do all they can to keep Hill in check. Jets opponents are averaging 20.4 points (12th in NFL).
