Miami Dolphins vs. Green Bay Packers Betting Odds
Team | Moneyline | Spread | Total |
Dolphins | +140 | +3 (+100) | Over 46.5 (-120) |
Packers | -165 | -3 (-120) | Under 46.5 (+100) |
The odds being provided show that the home team, the Packers, will win this match with a -3 spread. This is in light of their performance throughout the season as well as their record at home. That said, the Dolphins have shown great toughness, particularly in their most recent games against the spread, so the value might lure those who are trying to find an opportunity. The total points line is at 46.5, and recent patterns indicate that it should be an entertaining football game with more points scored than 46, given the fact that the Dolphins’ games have routinely gone over the total.
Tua Tagovailoa QB vs. Jordan Love QB
Tua Tagovailoa has a completion percentage of 73.3%, throwing for 1,760 yards while his passer rating stands at 106.3. These are not numbers to scoff at for somebody who was only active for 7 games owing to injuries. Tagovailoa has looked after the Finn quarterback really well for the Dolphins as he is able to perform the vital movements required really well, both in strength and accuracy. What will be crucial for Tagovailoa is how well he bounces back from his injury against the Green Bay Packers who have one of the strongest home-field defenses in the whole league.
For the Packers, Jordan Love was the starter for around 9 games and managed to get tas solid win rate but the success was rather divide. So far he has had 2244 quarterback yards and managed to get 18 tds but is quite brutal with 11 interceptions and comes with a mediocre passer rating with 92. His strong hand and legs make him effective but his decision making is open to scrutiny when he goes against Miami’s relentless defenders.
Miami’s Ground Game and Aerial Attack
The Dolphins’ offensive approach is built around the team of Tyreek Hill in the wide receiver position and De’Von Achane in the backfield. Achane has acquired 562 rushing yards this season due to impressive agility and bursts of quickness. Hill has also produced 571 receiving yards with his speed and precise route running. The previous five games show a team that is trying to get back into the swing of things, managing to see off the Rams and Raiders, even in close defeats to the Bills and Cardinals, where the team managed to show some fight and offensive output.
Green Bay’s Offensive Consistency and Playmaking
The offense of the Packers, led by the likes of Josh Jacobs with his 944 rushing yards and 7 touchdowns and Jayden Reed with the threat of pace over the top, has been effective. Their latest outings include a comfortable victory against the 49ers as well as a tightly contested one against the Bears, showing how they are able to finish games. The level of such persistence in the running game and capability in decisive plays can be the strength against the dolphins’ defense.
Miami Dolphins Betting Trends
The Dolphins have shown a knack for covering the spread with a 4-1 ATS in their last five games, suggesting resilience and ability to perform under pressure. However, their historical performance against the Packers, with a 1-5 SU record in recent matchups, paints a daunting picture.
Green Bay Packers Betting Trends
Despite a strong SU record this season, the Packers have struggled against the spread, going 1-4 ATS in their last five games. This trend suggests that while they often come out on top, games tend to be closer than expected—a factor bettors should consider.
Miami Dolphins vs. Green Bay Packers Betting Previews
In light of current statistics and referencing the past performances of both teams, the match is likely to be tighter than what the odds suggest. The Dolphins may be viewed as underdogs in this encounter, but their current ATS form and the Packers’ ATS form create an ideal scenario for Miami’s offense. With both teams able to score heavily, there’s a good chance of seeing the total points scored go over – this bet can be considered as well.
As regards which team can walk away with the points, it is advisable to pick the Dolphins but play them to cover the spread. Placing prop bets on Tua Tagovailoa’s passing yards and Josh Jacobs’ rushing yards, where Tua and Jacobs are vital cogs to their team’s offense seems to be worthwhile. All in all, anticipate a very exciting encounter in which the Packers may take all three points, but the Dolphins will give them all that they can handle in the process.
