The Miami Dolphins come off their bye to face the Indianapolis Colts in Week 7. The FanDuel odds see Miami continuing their early-season struggles after the break.
The Miami Dolphins come out of the bye week with a Week 7 contest against the Indianapolis Colts on the schedule. Miami has at least one more game before starting quarterback Tua Tagovailoa, who is on injured reserve following a Week 2 concussion, is eligible to return.

Coming into the week off an uneven win over the New England Patriots in Week 5 followed by the off weekend in Week 6, the Dolphins are 2-3 on the year and looking to keep themselves in the AFC playoff picture. The Colts, meanwhile, are 3-3 coming off a win to the Tennessee Titans – a team that beat Miami.
Of course, the Colts lost to the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 5, Jacksonville’s only win this season and a team Miami defeated in Week 1. The fun of the transitive property breaking down in the NFL.
The opening odds for this weekend’s Dolphins at Colts game have Miami a four-point underdog. Overnight, that line move slightly towards Miami, now sitting at 3.5 points in favor of Indianapolis. The point total for the game is 43.5.
