Betting on the Miami Dolphins  (6-8)

Point Spread: (-10)

The Miami Dolphins will make the trip to Kansas City to take on the Chiefs. This is the first meeting between the two teams since 2014 when the Chiefs won 34-15.

The Miami Dolphins won’t be making the playoffs, but they still have a lot to play for this year, and most of that is pride. This has been of the most inconsistent teams all year. Two weeks ago they had a huge win over the Patriots, their biggest win of the season. Last week though they went to Buffalo and really struggled and that led to a 24-16 defeat. If they want to win this game they are going to need to play better on both sides of the ball.

The defensive side of the ball is going to need to be better. If they gave up 24 points to a Bills offense that has struggled this year. They can’t let the Chiefs run up the score in this game, or it’s going to be a long game. They need this game to be a low scoring affair.

Betting on the Kansas City Chiefs  (8-6)

Point Spread: (+10)

On the other side of this match up is the Kansas City Chiefs who are in the drivers seat to win the division after their big win last weekend, but they can’t let a slip up happen in this game, or they might take another huge step back. The Chiefs come into this game off two straight wins, and both in division games that were both must win games for this team.

The defense and the offense both played well in both of those games, something they have had trouble doing the last couple of months. It has seemed in most games that one side of the ball played well, but the other side didn’t. To win this game they are going to need to have the same thing happen. They are going to get out to a fast start and really play well on both sides of the ball.

Writer’s Prediction

The better team in this match up is the Chiefs, but I think they will have issues getting up for this non division game. They will win this game, but the Dolphins will do enough to cover the spread. Pick: Miami Dolphins (-10.5)
