Two teams clinging to slim chances of making the playoffs face off in NFL Week 16 as the Miami Dolphins (6-8) host the San Francisco 49ers (6-8) on CBS and Paramount+. Both teams expected to be the offensive juggernauts they were in 2023, but mounting injuries have left both squads on the verge of missing the playoffs completely. The Dolphins are coming off a disappointing 20-12 loss to the Houston Texans, while the reigning NFC champions suffered a mistake-prone 12-6 loss to the Los Angeles Rams their last time out.

Week 16 NFL picks for 49ers vs. Dolphins
Before tuning into Sunday’s Dolphins vs. 49ers game, you need to see the NFL picks from SportsLine’s advanced computer model. The model, which simulates every NFL game 10,000 times, is up well over $7,000 for $100 players on top-rated NFL picks since its inception. The model enters Week 16 of the 2024 NFL season on an incredible 27-11 betting hot streak on top-rated NFL picks this year. Longer term, it is on a 207-139 roll on top-rated NFL picks that dates back to the 2017 season and a 61-32 roll on top-rated NFL picks since Week 7 of 2022.
The model also ranked in the top 10 on NFLPickWatch four of the past six years on straight-up NFL picks and beat more than 94% of CBS Sports Football Pick’em players four times during that span. Anyone following at sportsbooks and on betting apps has seen strong returns.
For Dolphins vs. 49ers, the model is backing Miami to cover the spread. Both teams are 5-9-0 against the spread this season, which makes both teams tough to back. That being said, Miami has scored over 20 points in five of its last seven games while San Francisco has scored fewer than 20 in four of its past five games. The Dolphins have also scored more than 30 points in each of their last three games at home.
San Francisco has gotten reinforcements on defense thanks to the return of linebacker Dre Greenlaw and safety Talanoa Hufanga, and they could also get star pass rusher Nick Bosa back in time to put pressure on Tua Tagovailoa. Brock Purdy is showing some fatigue after back-to-back seasons with deep playoff runs, which could also be why the model has Miami covering the spread in well over 50% of simulations. You may be able to stream the game here.
