SPORTS UPDATE Why the Jets can cover

New York couldn’t have asked for a better opponent to see on Monday Night Football as the Dolphins are 1-7 over their last eight primetime games. That includes four straight Miami defeats at home in primetime, and the team has lost five of its last six MNF appearances overall. Also, the mini-bye that Miami is coming off after playing last Thursday doesn’t appear to help their chances of covering as the Dolphins are 0-4 against the spread with a rest advantage since the start of 2024.

The Jets have a potent running attack with a number of talented backs, plus mobility with the quarterback position with Justin Fields cleared from the concussion protocol. The team entered Week 4 ranking in the top 10 in both rushing yards per game and rushing scores, despite Breece Hall yet to find the end zone in 2025. Than run game should undoubtedly get boosted by the pass game, as that’s what Miami’s defense tends to do for opponents. The Dolphins are first team since the merger to allow nine total touchdowns and zero turnovers to their opposing starting quarterbacks in each of the team’s first three games. See which team to back at SportsLine.

SPORTS UPDATE Why the Dolphins can cover

Playing at home has certainly been an advantage for the Dolphins in this series as they’ve won nine straight home matchups with the Jets. All of them have been by more than the spread of 2.5 points as the Dolphins have a 10.4-point average margin of victory during this run. Additionally, Behind a mass has had success versus his divisional rival no matter where the games have taken place as the quarterback is undefeated in five starts against the Jets, including averaging 277.5 passing yards, a 76% completion rate and a 3:0 TD:INT over his last two versus New York.

The Dolphins offense has come to life after an eight-point Week 1, particularly the run game, as the team rushed for 130 yards last week versus Buffalo. Miami is averaging 5.4 yards per carry on the year, which ranks fourth in the NFL, while the team ranks No. 1 in third-down conversion percentage and fourth in redzone scoring. That offense can take advantage of deficiencies with the Jets defense, as New York hasn’t had a takeaway, ranks in the bottom 10 in run defense and is in the bottom five in scoring defense. See which team to back at SportsLine.
