The Colts are entering this game with a 2-7 record overall and they have a 1-2 record in their divisional games too. They are 1-3 in their home games, 0-4 in their road games, and they are also 1-0 in their neutral site games this season, but they will be at home for this game.

The current betting odds have the Dolphins listed as a 2.5 point underdog in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. The Dolphins have looked terrible in their games this season with their 1-7 record overall which has them right at the bottom of the AFC East with one of the worst records in the entire NFL. They haven't been a good road team either with their 1-3 road record this year. Meanwhile, the Colts have looked terrible in their games this season with their 2-7 record overall which has them right near the bottom of the AFC South. They haven't looked good on their home field either with their 1-3 home record this season. The Colts are coming off a 27-23 loss to the Cowboys in their last one and they put up a really good fight as they had a chance to win that game late, but they have been a disaster all season and haven't really shown much life. Jones and Taylor are still there, but the team has traded away a lot of good players over the last 2 weeks and they are clearly not looking to win this season, just trying to get some picks back. The Dolphins have been a disaster this season too, but they also have a new head coach and a roster that isn't that talented. Their only win this season did come on the road though and lately they have shown a lot more life in their games. The offense has looked terrible, but their defense hasn't really been that bad. They haven't been giving up a ton of points lately and they are coming off a 19-9 loss to the Lions in their last one, holding down one of the best offenses in the NFL. This is a very winnable game for both teams, but the Dolphins have shown more life as a team lately and are in a better position to get this win. The best way to place a bet here is on the Dolphins to cover the spread in this game.

“Why did we give up the fake punt? We've got to go look back and make sure we’re not giving anything away. They clearly saw something on tape that they took advantage of, just like we saw something on tape and we took advantage of it.” - Jeff Hafley after his team’s loss against the Lions in their last game. 

“Yeah, we let them score. I mean they've got four shots from the 1-yard line so we have a chance to get the ball back. If not, they're bleeding the clock.” - Shane Steichen after his team’s loss against the Cowboys in their last game.
