The Miami Dolphins return home on Sunday to face the Cincinnati Bengals. It is a matchup between an 0-4 team that has fans excited for the future and a 2-2 team that is struggling to find the success fans expected this season. The Dolphins, in the first year of a complete franchise reset, are starting to look more competitive, with a roster full of rookies and younger players showing signs of growth. The Bengals are trying to get their feet back under neath them after a 2-0 start was followed by a two-game losing streak.<\/p>\n
Can Miami, who head into their bye week after the game, enjoy a two-week stretch celebrating their first win of the year? Will the Bengals take advantage of the inexperienced Miami team to get back to winning football?<\/p>\n
This game could be the Dolphins\u2019 first victory of the year. Cincinnati has not been playing well, and they could be shorthanded, especially at wide receiver, with Ja\u2019Marr Chase questionable with a concussion and Tee Higgins questionable with groin and neck issues. They were both full participants in Friday\u2019s practice, which could signal their availability for today\u2019s game, but even if they are on the field, they may not be at 100 percent strength yet.<\/p>\n
I have Miami winning this game straight up, so I will also take the points here.<\/p>\n
Most passing yards: Joe Burrow or Malik Willis<\/p>\n
I really would love to make an argument that Willis is the right pick here, because that +240 is tempting, but I think this is a Burrow prop. Burrow\u2019s total passing yards line is set at 250.5, while Willis\u2019s is 190.5. That seems about right as well. Take Burrow here, though you will not be getting a lot back on your bet.<\/p>\n
Tallysight does not have this bet set in their widget. <\/p>\n
Malik Washington total receptions: 4.5<\/p>\n
Washington has 17 receptions this season, 10 more than Miami\u2019s second-highest receiver, Caleb Douglas. He has caught five passes in each of his last two games and has been targeted at least five times in every game. I will take the over here and hope that we continue to see Washington right on that five-reception mark.<\/p>\n
Chop Robinson to record a sack<\/p>\n
This is essentially an over\/under on Robinson at 0.5 sacks. He made his first sack of the year last week and had 10 pressures during the game. Sacks tend to come in bunches, so I will assume Robinson has figured something out and that he will continue into this week with at least one sack.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Miami Dolphins return home on Sunday to face the Cincinnati Bengals.
