Dolphins vs. Panthers Odds
Game Preview
An already sloppy Dolphins’ offense received another blow, as their top receiver and one of the best in the NFL ended the season. Who will help struggling Tua Tagovailoa now is a big question. Along with 7 TD passes, he has 4 interceptions and 3 more fumbles.
Miami allows 158 rushing yards per game, which is the 3rd worst in the NFL. They need to improve that now, otherwise, the teams will continue to break them with ground offense.
Carolina played three games on the road and just one at home. That single event ended with them humiliating the Falcons, 30-0. It was as if the Panthers were a completely different team from what we had seen before.
However, last weekend they got blown into pieces vs. Patriots, 42-13. They didn’t lose a single possession, but their 3rd-down efficiency was 5-for-14, which was the reason for such a high loss.
Dolphins vs. Panthers Head to Head
Miami leads the all-time series 6-2.
Dolphins vs. Panthers Predictions
Panthers aren’t as weak as we first thought. Yes, they seem to be one of 5 worst teams in the NFC, yet far better than our expectations. Their performances at home against the Falcons are the reason to bet on their triumph over the banged Fins, who, without Hill, have many fewer options in the attack.
