Miami Dolphins
The Dolphins entered their Thursday night showdown against the Baltimore Ravens last week on the heels of a 3-0 SU and 2-0-1 ATS run, but that momentum didn’t carry over in a brutal 40-0 defeat on the road. The shutout loss highlighted Miami’s problems on offense as the Dolphins rank dead last in the NFL in total yards with 252.4 per game and scoring with 13.1 points per game.
After missing last week’s game, Jay Cutler is expected to return under center this week.
Over their last 14 games as a home underdog, the Dolphins are 9-4-1 ATS including a current stretch of 4-1 SU and ATS over their last five per the OddsShark NFL Database.
Oakland Raiders
Coming off a 12-4 SU and 10-6 ATS campaign in 2016 and then opening the 2017 season with a 2-0 SU and ATS start, the Oakland Raiders appeared to be picking up where they had left off. But since that hot start, Oakland is just 1-5 SU and ATS, failing to find any consistency on either side of the ball.
Ranking 20th in the league in scoring offense and 23rd in the league in scoring defense, the Raiders have been a below average team this year and have a 3-5 SU and ATS record to show for it. Oakland is 1-7 SU in its last eight road games against Miami.
Sunday night’s total is set at 44 points. The OVER is 4-0 in the last four games between Oakland and Miami.
The Raiders are 4-20 SU in their last 24 games on the East Coast and the Dolphins are 11-0 SU in their last 11 games hosting a team from the West Coast. These trends don’t bode well for Oakland, especially given that the team’s play over the last month hasn’t inspired much confidence in and of itself.
