Week 14 NFL odds: Dolphins vs. 49ers
The new-look 49ers are 11.5-point favorites over Miami.

Quarterback Colin Kaepernick has brought a new dimension to the 49ers offense. His ability to attack downfield and score first downs with his legs on broken plays has opened up the playbook for head coach Jim Harbaugh. Frank Gore's consistency in the backfield and the best defense in the NFL complement the young quarterback's game. Since Kaep took the helm, the 49ers have covered spreads against the Bears and Saints, while falling outright to the underdog Rams.
Losing four of their last five games, Miami has struggled behind rookie quarterback Ryan Tannehill. The Texas A&M product has thrown six interceptions and two touchdowns in his last four starts, with the lone bright spot in that stretch coming on a game-winning drive against Seattle. The Dolphins have been double-digit underdogs just once this season, failing to cover the 13 points they were getting against Houston in Week 1. Miami pushed in its most recent game, losing to the Patriots by a touchdown.
