After the Miami Dolphins beat the Los Angeles Rams on Monday Night Football to end Weke 10, FanDuel’s oddsmakers see them as favorites against the Las vegas Raiders in Week 11.
The Miami Dolphins kept a pathway to the AFC playoff picture opened on Monday night when they beat the Los Angeles Rams, snapping a three-game losing stream and ending a four-game winning streak by the Rams. The 23-15 win was not a clean game for the Dolphins, with interceptions and fumbles still popping up at inopportune times, but they did enough on offense and, when they did make a mistake, the defense was there to assist. It felt like the first complete game Miami has played this year.
The oddsmakers at FanDuel sportsbook seem to agree. The Dolphins opened as 7.5-point favorites for their Week 11 meeting against the Las Vegas Raiders. That spread is tied for the second-largest line of the week, trailing just the 13.5 points the Detroit Lions are favored over the Jacksonville Jaguars. After weeks of the Dolphins looking inept on the field and their betting lines matching, the Dolphins put together a solid performance, and the oddsmakers seem to have responded. Miami is -390 on the moneyline for the straight-up win, while the Raiders are +310 to pull off the upset. The point total is 44.5.
Can the Dolphins put together two wins in a row as they look to move up from the 10th position in the AFC playoff picture? Are the Dolphins in a position to make a run back into contention in the wild card race? A second-straight win could actually make their playoff hopes come a little more into focus.
