Miami Dolphins vs Atlanta Falcons
Head to head
Preview
How it plays out
Miami Dolphins vs Atlanta Falcons is an inter-conference matchup: the AFC Dolphins hosting the NFC Falcons. Our model leans Miami Dolphins's way (67% to 33%, MIA -2.5), but Atlanta Falcons are live enough to make it interesting.
Tactically, Miami Dolphins will want to lean on creative scheme to attack Atlanta Falcons, whose pass rush is the obvious pressure point. Going the other way, Atlanta Falcons's elite running back could punish Miami Dolphins if qB durability goes unaddressed. Expect both staffs, Mike McDaniel and Raheem Morris, to script around exactly that battle.
Keep an eye on Tua Tagovailoa (QB) and Michael Penix Jr. (QB): the two most likely to decide it with a single play. With Dolphins at home, the model already bakes in roughly a field-goal's worth of home-field edge.
