Betting Miami
The Miami Dolphins are coming into the postseason as the seven-seed. They finished the year with a 9-8 overall record. Tua Tagovailoa has passed for three thousand five hundred and forty-eight passing yards through the air, 25 touchdown scores and eight (8) intercepted passes on sixty-four point-eight passing percentage.
Raheem Mostert has a team-best eight hundred ninety-one (891) rushing yards on the ground this season. Tyreek Hill is the lead receiver with one hundred and nineteen (119) caught passes for one thousand seven hundred and ten receiving yards and seven (7) touchdown scores.
Jaylen Waddle has 75 catches of the ball for one thousand three hundred and fifty six receiving yards and a team-best eight (8) touchdown scores. On the defense, Elandon Roberts has a team-best one hundred and seven (107) total tackles. Jaelan Phillips has a team-best seven (7) sacks so far this 2022 season.
Miami has been winning five of its past six football games when playing against division opponents. That includes a 21points to 19 points victory when these two teams played one another in in the month of September. They ought to bring a great deal of desperation to end their two-game losing streak. The Dolphins might be able to catch Buffalo at the right time, what with the Bills offensive attack sputtering the last few weeks.
Betting Buffalo
Buffalo’s pass rush posted four sacks and a lot of pressure last week playing against the Jets. Tagovailoa is a native of the island of Hawaii who might have difficulty throwing in the cold. Although Allen and the offensive attack had trouble by their high standards last week, they did not turn the ball over. Moreover, they improved to a 22-4 SU record when Allen does not give the ball away.
Buffalo’s offensive attack will be looking to get back on the right track after they were held to a season-worst 232 total yards and 14 first downs in last week’s 20 points to 12 points victory over the Jets.
Josh Allen passed for only one hundred and forty seven passing yards. That is the fourth straight game as well as the sixth time in seven games that he has managed 253 or fewer passing tards through the air.
Furthermor, Stefon Diggs caught the ball only three times for thirty seven (37) receiving yards. Even though the Bills offensive attack is still ranking second in the NFL in total yards and ranking fourth in the league in points scored, it has scored 28 points or fewer in five of its past seven games.
This offensive funk, combined with the defense that has been allowing the second-fewest points in the entire league, has caused Buffalo to go UNDER the total in nine of its last 11 games at gambling sites for NFL.
Miami Dolphins vs. Buffalo Bills NFL Wild Card
It sure is going to be a very tough spot for the Miami Dolphins in this football game. We think that Miami was rather lucky to have finagled their way into the postseason. Right now as things do stand, Tua is out of this game and it would be leading the Dolphins to having to play a backup QB in Skylar Thompson in a game on the road, in Buffalo in the month of January when these Dolphins had to use heaters in mid-60s weather not too long ago.
We just think that the Bills have the advantage of playing in that kind of condition and it will come back to haunt the Dolphins here. Take the Bills to lay the big number. Miami is 0-4 ATS in the last 4 playoff games and 6-1 ATS in their last seven division games. The under is 5-0 in their last five playoff games.
