AMEDEUS' NFL PRIME TIME MONDAY MAULER!
(NFL) Dolphins (MIA) vs. Rams (LAR),
Point Spread: 2.50 | 110.00 Dolphins (MIA) (Away)
Result: Win
The Dolphins are coming into this game with a 2-6 record this season and they have not been playing well in their recent games. They have won their last 3 straight games and that includes 2 losses since Tua Tagovailoa came back from injury, but they have also played much better in those 2 losses. They lost at home to the Cardinals 28-27 and then followed up in their last game with a 30-27 loss on the road against the Bills. They are going to be hungry to get a win though and their opponent has had a lot of their own problems this season. They are going up against a Rams team that is 4-4 this season and they have been playing much better in their recent games, winning their last 3 straight games after starting the season 1-4. Their offense has been much better in their last 2 games as well, but their defense has also allowed at least 20 points in each of their last 2 as well as 7 of their 8 games this season and that is going to keep the Dolphins in this game as they have a very potent offense that has been much better with Tua back in the lineup. The Rams have also struggled to stop the run on defense in their last few games and with Mostert back healthy now, the Dolphins have been tearing teams up on the ground recently. They are going to have ways to move the ball on the ground against this defense and that will help Tua in the passing game as he still has plenty of weapons to attack this Rams secondary with. The Rams also have a good run game with Kyren Williams, but the Dolphins have been much better at stopping the run in their last 3 games so it is going to be difficult for Williams to get yards on this defense and that will hurt Stafford in the passing game as well. The Rams have been better in their last 2 games, but they have still been very inconsistent on offense all season and they are still in their division race with a loss here while the Dolphins are getting into dangerous territory where this is a must win game for them to keep any hopes of making the playoffs alive. The Dolphins will cover the spread in this game.
