NFL Week 3: Denver Broncos vs Miami Dolphins Odds, and Picks (Sep 24)

Pick rationale

Analysis & key factors

  • The Broncos lost 35-33 vs the Commanders in week 2 shootout.
  • The Dolphins survived a late comeback to win 24-17 vs the Patriots on Sunday.
  • These teams last met in 2020 with the Broncos winning 13-20.

Its an AFC matchup featuring two teams heading in opposite directions here as we preview Denver vs Miami. The 0-2 Broncos need Russell Wilson to get back to his best soon or their season could be heading into tank mode. The 2-0 Dolphins are flying high and will be looking to extend their lead atop the AFC East here.


How To Watch

Game Preview

The Broncos have lost their first two games of the 2023 season by 1 and 2 points respectively, but the truth is they have looked worse than the score-lines show. Russell Wilson put up decent numbers against the Commanders but his efficiency was poor and he was sacked a staggering seven times. Rookie RB Javonte Williams is slowly finding his game fitness and the level required to be a top NFL player, and his integration should help ease the pressures on Wilson and the receiving corps.

Tua Tagovailoa’s Miami Dolphins are incredible to watch at the moment. With Raheem Mostert running over people in the backfield and Tua himself making some huge plays through the air there are many reason to enjoy this team. Add to that two elite wide receivers and a defense which is capable of closing out games this Miami side could be a dark horse for the Superbowl this season.


Prediction

We are all waiting for Russ to turn things around at Denver, but it seems a long way off still. Miami is a team capable of going all the way this year, and they take another step toward that goal with a win in this one.
