Dolphins vs Browns prediction
Dolphins vs Browns Best bet: Quinshon Judkins Over 90.5 rushing yards (-114)
The Cleveland Browns had a miserable time against the Pittsburgh Steelers last week, losing 23-9 as Dillon Gabriel threw the ball 50 times.
The Browns got down early and were forced to go through the air to play catch-up. It certainly wasn’t an ideal situation for the young QB, and I don’t expect Cleveland to lean that heavily on the pass game in Week 7.
The Miami Dolphins defense is far more friendly than the Steelers’, as Miami has surrendered the most rushing yards per game at a whopping 168.5. That includes the third-most rushing yards per attempt at 5.6.
Quinshon Judkins went 10-for-61 in his first game of the season and followed that up with rushing lines of 18/94, 21/82, and 23/110 before last week’s loss against Pittsburgh. In that one, he carried the ball only 12 times for 36 yards.
Judkins should see a much more favorable game script in Week 7 against a struggling defense, and with weather conditions potentially rainy and windy, I’ll look for Cleveland to focus on the run game.
That should mean plenty of opportunities for the talented rookie to rack up rushing yards.
Dolphins vs Browns same-game parlay
Tua Tagovailoa has reached the Over in three of six games this season, but only once in three road matchups. Already down Tyreek Hill, he may be missing Darren Waller as well this week. Add in poor weather conditions and a tough Cleveland defense, and he’s set up to go Under his passing prop.
Cleveland has scored the fewest points per game at just 13.7 this season, and they have failed to eclipse 17 in any contest. That will change on Sunday as the team gets back on track at home against a flailing Dolphins team.
Dolphins vs Browns SGP
- Quinshon Judkins Over 93.5 rushing yards
- Tua Tagovailoa Under 190.5 passing yards
- Browns team total 19.5 points
Our big-ticket SGP: Devine play from De’Von!
De’Von Achane broke out for 150 scrimmage yards last week, and he should be a focal point on offense as a rusher and receiver out of the backfield. He’s been a lone bright spot for the ‘Fins this season.
Dolphins vs Browns SGP
- Quinshon Judkins Over 93.5 rushing yards
- Tua Tagovailoa Under 190.5 passing yards
- Browns team total 19.5 points
- De’Von Achane Over 105.5 rushing + receiving yards
Dolphins vs Browns game predictions
Dolphins vs Browns moneyline prediction
Someone’s going to come out of this game 2-5, and I expect it to be the home team. The Dolphins have lost back-to-back heartbreakers, so they’re due for a win, right? Not necessarily, as the Browns should be rejuvenated, returning home after weeks overseas. This is a get-right spot for Cleveland on both sides of the ball.
Dolphins vs Browns spread prediction
Cleveland is less than a field goal favorite at home, and I expect them to cover the modest spread. The Browns have the far superior defense in this matchup, and Miami’s poor defense should allow Dillon Gabriel, Quinshon Judkins and Co. to finally put up some points.
Dolphins vs Browns Over/Under prediction
The Dolphins are 5-1 to the Over this season, while the Browns are 2-4 to the Under. In a game that could end up 20-16 Browns, I’ll lean Under. I don’t expect Miami’s offense to find much traction in this matchup.
Dolphins vs Browns odds
- Spread: Miami +2.5 | Cleveland -2.5
- Moneyline: Miami +124 | Cleveland -146
- Over/Under: Over 36.5 | Under 36.5
