Key Details
Miami Dolphins
The Dolphins are riding a three-game winning streak, thanks to an offense that’s hitting its stride. Rookie running back De’Von Achane has earned AFC Offensive Player of the Month honors for November after racking up 428 rushing yards in his last three games. Achane has been especially tough on the Jets, putting up 220 rushing yards and two touchdowns in their last two meetings.
On defense, Miami linebacker Jordyn Brooks has been a key playmaker, sitting second in the league with 137 tackles.Â
New York Jets
Sitting at 3-9, the Jets have had their struggles but have shown some fight, going 3-2 in their last five games. Unfortunately, injuries to key players like QB Justin Fields and receiver Garrett Wilson have made the road tougher.
The Jets’ passing game has struggled, ranking last with just 146.8 yards per game, but their rushing attack has been a strength. Running back Breece Hall has been the standout, piling up 834 rushing yards this season. On defense, rookie Will McDonald IV has been a force, notching 7 sacks and breaking into the league’s top 10. To pull off an upset, the Jets will need their ground game and defense to set the tone and disrupt Miami’s flow.
Prediction
The Jets are playing hard. Miami has to travel to the cold. It seems like this is enough to cover the spread and maybe even win.
