Of all of the games on the Sunday 12/30 Week 17 NFL betting schedule, one of my favorite is the clash between the Miami Dolphins and the New England Patriots. Join me for my tips for this 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff that can be seen on CBS.

Miami Dolphins (7-8, 8-7 ATS) +10.5
New England Patriots (11-4, 8-7 ATS) -10.5
Over/Under 46

I just don’t trust Head Coach Bill Belichick in this game. I don’t trust that he is going to play this one full bore, and I don’t trust that he is going to ultimately want to show the Dolphins anything, knowing that he probably has to contend with the Bengals next week or the Broncos or Texans the week after that here at this stadium.

Miami has a team that really has overachieved this year at 7-8, and there is a chance to get the job done and finish up at a very respectable .500 with a win in the cold at Gillette Stadium. QB Ryan Tannehill and the crew have a few very respectable results this year, including beating the Bengals on the road, beating the Rams at home, beating the Seahawks at home, and sticking around with both the Patriots and the 49ers down the stretch.

Regardless as to whether QB Tom Brady plays the full game or not in this one, I still like keeping the points on my side. It’s just that much more of a bonus to ultimately know that Brady and the starters could be spending the fourth quarter on the bench. If that turns out to be the case, Miami will win this game outright in all likelihood. This one probably ultimately means a lot more to the Dolphins than it does to the Patriots in spite of the fact that it is New England that is playing to move up (or avoid moving down) the playoff ladder in the AFC.

Date: Sunday, December 30th, 4:25 ET
Location: Gillette Stadium, Foxboro, MA
NFL Betting Odds: New England -10.5
Dolphins vs. Patriots On TV: CBS

For whatever reason, the Dolphins have found a way to be a thorn in the side of the Patriots over the course of the last two years. No, they haven’t won a game in that stretch, but they have covered New England in the last two and have only been beaten by an average of 8.0 points per game in the last three games that these two have played. This is a huge game for QB Ryan Tannehill, as he would love to prove that he can go on the road and beat the Brady Bunch. New England is just too strong offensively to ultimately lose this game, but there is a chance that Head Coach Bill Belichick might be looking up at the scoreboard, seeing what’s going on in New England, and decide that it isn’t worth it to try hard in this one, provided that Houston wins in the 1:00 ET hour. There’s just too much risk here to lay double digits with the Patriots.

Week 16 Betting Odds: Miami -4.5
Buffalo vs. Miami Live TV: CBS

Boring. The Bills and the Dolphins have both already seen their season go up in flames (we don’t want to hear how the Fins technically aren’t eliminated yet), and they are both underachieving teams down the stretch as far as we are concerned. However, the M.O. for Miami has been beating teams that is should beat and losing to teams that it should lose to over the course of the last month. The offense was as bad as it has been all season long in the 19-14 loss up at Ralph Wilson Stadium, and we think that QB Ryan Tannehill and RB Reggie Bush are going to be in for much better games this time around against a Buffalo defense that just hasn’t been all that special, especially last week against the Seahawks when it was beaten 50-17. The Dolphins are at least 6-3 ATS in their last nine games in this series against the Bills.

Of all of the games on the Sunday 12/16 Week 15 NFL betting schedule, one of my favorite is the clash between the Jacksonville Jaguars and the Miami Dolphins. Join me for my tips for this 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff that can be seen on CBS.

Jacksonville Jaguars (2-11, 6-7 ATS) +7.5
Miami Dolphins (5-8, 6-7 ATS) -7.5
Over/Under 37.5

Just because you’ve been playing competitive ball against some good teams does most certainly not mean that you should be laying more than a touchdown under any circumstance against a team that has been a lot better than a 2-11 record suggests this year. Unfortunately for the oddsmakers, they just haven’t figured that part of this out.

The Jags have at least been trying hard to stay in games, and I urge you to remember that this game is the Super Bowl to QB Chad Henne. He would love nothing more than to come back to South Beach and stick it to the team that cut him. WR Cecil Shorts will be back in the fold, which gives Jacksonville a deep threat to get the ball to as well.

I’m going to stick with a teaser in this one, knowing that I’m going to be getting just a stupid amount of points with the Jaguars against a team that has only won two games all year by more than four points. Miami might win it, but if it does, it isn’t going to be with more than 24 points or so on the board in all likelihood. If that’s the case, I really like my chances of this one coming in, as two professional teams should be getting to at least 31 combined points a whole heck of a lot more often than not. This is the game that pro bettors thrive on from a teasing standpoint.

Our apologies to anyone that is stuck watching this game on Sunday (though at least that means you’re not stuck with KC/Oakland…). This game flat out stinks. The Jaguars have been brutal offensively all year long, and the Dolphins, for as competitive as they have been at times, have still lost five out of six and have only covered two of those six. However, here’s the question that we’re asking to the oddsmakers in this one. When’s the last time the Dolphins beat anybody by more than a touchdown? Here’s a hint: It has only happened twice this year, and those came against the Jets on the road 30-9 and the Raiders at home 35-13. This is a much different game against a much different team. The Jaguars at least stay remotely competitive in most of their games, and they’ve been awfully good on the road this year. Go with the Jags and the points in what could be a relatively close game.

Jaguars @ Dolphins Pick: Jacksonville Jaguars +7.5

The New England Patriots and the Miami Dolphins are going to square off in Week 13 of the NFL betting campaign. Join us here at Cappers Info, as we make our predictions for football for what should be a great game on Sunday.

Week 13 NFL Picks: New England Patriots @ Miami Dolphins
Date: Sunday, December 2nd, 1:00 ET
Location: Sun Life Stadium, Miami, FL
Week 13 Betting Odds: New England -7
Patriots vs. Dolphins Live TV: CBS

The Patriots and the Dolphins are going to be facing off for the first time in Week 13, and it truly is the biggest game of the season for the hosts. Miami not only is just three off the pace in the AFC East, making it at least plausible to get back into the division race, but it is just a game back of the Cincinnati Bengals and the Pittsburgh Steelers in the chase for the last Wild Card spot, and not only are both teams due for a step backwards, but the team right in front of them, the Indianapolis Colts, are underdogs this week. Of course, it’s going to be a tough time to beat the Pats, especially knowing that QB Tom Brady has been on fire of late. Miami’s secondary has struggled at times, and though its ground defense is one of the better in football, that doesn’t mean that the team is going to have the goods to stop the Brady Bunch. There’s just no way that we can go against the Patriots in this one, knowing that they are likely to score 29+ for the sixth straight game.

NFL betting fans are running to their online sportsbooks to place their Seattle Seahawks vs. Miami Dolphins bets and predictions, and here at Cappers Info, we are making our Sunday football picks for this encounter.

Week 12 Football Picks: Seattle Seahawks @ Miami Dolphins
Date: Sunday, November 25th, 1:00 ET
Location: Sun Life Stadium, Miami, FL
NFL Betting Lines: Seattle -3
Seahawks vs. Dolphins On TV: FOX

The Seahawks are coming on the road and playing about as far away of a road game as you reasonably can in any sport in this country, coming all the way to South Beach. In the end, this is a football game though, and the time change shouldn’t make all that much of a difference. Fortunately for the Hawks, they’re coming to Miami in the fall when the weather is incredibly nice, not in the summer when it is as hot as Hades. Unfortunately for Seattle, what it can’t control is the way that the team plays on the other side of the field. The Dolphins are going to be back at home for the first time since getting clocked by the Tennessee Titans here 37-3. They were beaten on the road by the Buffalo Bills just four days later, and they have had a long week off to celebrate the holiday and prepare for this game. This is a game that the Dolphins absolutely have to have, or they probably won’t have all that much of a chance to get into the playoffs. Go with QB Ryan Tannehill and the Fins to put away the Seahawks in a huge game for both sides.

Seahawks @ Dolphins Pick: Miami Dolphins +3

NFL betting fans are running to their online sportsbooks to place their Miami Dolphins vs. Buffalo Bills bets and predictions, and here at Cappers Info, we are making our Thursday football picks for this encounter.

Week 11 Football Picks: Miami Dolphins @ Buffalo Bills
Date: Thursday, November 15th, 8:20 ET
Location: Ralph Wilson Stadium, Orchard Park, NY
NFL Betting Lines: Buffalo -1
Dolphins vs. Bills On TV: NFL Network

The Dolphins have been in quite the interesting situation this week, and we think that we have the right stuff to get them in the win column on Thursday. The fact that it is going to be so cold is about the only thing that we are afraid of, as this is another one of these southern teams that generally plays poorly when the temperatures drop into the 30s or below. However, RB Fred Jackson is out and the receiving corps is beaten up for the Bills. But the real key though, is the way the schedule has played out for the Dolphins. Miami came back home last week to take on the Tennessee Titans, who had just been embarrassed by the Chicago Bears the week prior. Tennessee came out like gangbusters and beat the heck out of the Dolphins. Now, it is Miami that is in the spot of having just gotten the snot kicked out of it, and it is going to want to make amends, especially in an important game in which the season might be on the line. That’s good enough for us. Go with the Dolphins for your TNF picks.

Of all of the games on the Thursday 11/15 Week 11 NFL betting schedule, one of my favorite is the clash between the Miami Dolphins and the Buffalo Bills. Join me for my tips for this 8:20 p.m. ET kickoff that can be seen on the NFL Network.

Miami Dolphins (4-5, 4-5 ATS) +1
Buffalo Bills (3-6, 4-5 ATS) -1
Over/Under 45

History suggests that the Dolphins are going to struggle to put points on the board this week against the Bills, and it is going to show for sure. Take away last year’s bizarre game for RB Reggie Bush in December against a Buffalo team that had already really given up on the year, and what’s left are a whole bunch of games where the Dolphins have failed to get out of the teens when playing here in Buffalo. In fact, the road team in this series had scored between eight and 17 points in 11 straight games before last year’s 30-point explosion for the Dolphins.

More about this matchup that I like: RB Fred Jackson is out of the fold, and that leaves just RB CJ Spiller to carry the rock. Spiller had success when he was the lone tailback in the offense at the outset of the year with Jackson hurt, and though he averaged over 10 yards per carry in two games, he did so against the lowly Jets, who had given up defending the run because they were up so many points, and the lowly Chiefs, who only took the lead for the first time in a game this season on Monday.

In the end, the ‘under’ is most certainly the right play to make. The Bills’ defense has been bad, but it isn’t going to be this bad once again in this game now that they are back at home and playing against manageable opponents. Remember that QB Ryan Tannehill has a grand total of just five TD passes all season long, and that won’t cut it against Buffalo.

The Tennessee Titans and the Miami Dolphins are going to square off in Week 10 of the NFL betting campaign. Join us here at Cappers Info, as we make our predictions for football for what should be a great game on Sunday.

Week 10 NFL Picks: Tennessee Titans @ Miami Dolphins
Date: Sunday, November 11th, 1:00 ET
Location: Sun Life Stadium, Miami, FL
Week 10 Betting Odds: Miami -6
Titans vs. Dolphins Live TV: CBS

This is a game that we think the oddsmakers just got flat out wrong. The Titans are coming off of just a horrid beating at the hands of the Bears, and they are going to want to make sure that they get back on track to stick around in the race in the AFC playoff race. Meanwhile, we just don’t think all that much of the Dolphins. Who have they really beaten this year? The Jets? The Bengals? The Rams? The Raiders? Wee. In fact, they’ve only played one game against a good team all year long, and that came against the Texans in Week 1, a game that was lost by 20. We’re not saying that Miami won’t win this game, because it very well might, but the fact of the matter is that we think this is only just greater than a 50/50 proposition when push comes to shove. These two teams, especially now that QB Jake Locker is back in the fold for the Titans, are on relatively level terms as we see it.

Titans @ Dolphins Pick: Tennessee Titans +6
Titans @ Dolphins Score Prediction: Miami 21 – Tennessee 17

Of all of the games on the Sunday 11/11 Week 10 NFL betting schedule, one of my favorite is the clash between the Tennessee Titans and the Miami Dolphins. Join me for my tips for this 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff that can be seen on CBS.

Tennessee Titans (3-6, 3-6 ATS) +6
Miami Dolphins (4-4, 4-4 ATS) -6
Over/Under 44

The way that you get points on the board against the Dolphins is by throwing the football. Unfortunately for the Titans, they really don’t do that all that well. The good news is that QB Jake Locker is going to be back in the fold this week, but the bad news is that he really has never proven to be a prolific passer when push comes to shove. This could see the Dolphins just teeing off on him time and time again if RB Chris Johnson can’t get going.

But don’t think for a single second that this is going to be all peaches and cream for the Dolphins offensively as well. The Titans allowed 51 points last week, and they are going to make sure to do a heck of a lot better than that this time around. Last year when they allowed 41 to the Texans, they turned right around and held the Colts to just 10 points and kept their next three foes to a total of just 37.

The Titans are better than what they’ve shown defensively over the course of the last month and a half or so, and I think that that is going to be what shines on Sunday. The ‘under’ is 6-3 in the last nine games in this series dating back to 1997, and that’s my expectation in this one, especially knowing that the Fins have played four straight games ‘under’ the ‘total’.

Titans @ Dolphins Tips: Under 44

Week 9 Football Picks: Miami Dolphins @ Indianapolis Colts
Date: Sunday, November 4th, 1:00 ET
Location: Lucas Oil Stadium, Indianapolis, IN
NFL Betting Lines: Miami -1.5
Dolphins vs. Colts On TV: CBS

Who would’ve ever thought that the Colts and the Dolphins would both be in the thick of the playoff race this year in the AFC? Of course, there is still a heck of a lot of season to go, but the winner of this game is going to be on a clip for 10 wins when push comes to shove, and that’s quite the impressive number when you think about it. It just feels odd to us to think that QB Ryan Tannehill is playing hurt, yet he is a favorite on the road against an Indy team that is clearly going to be able to get after him as a passer. Both of these teams are playing well right now, but neither one really has played much in the way of outstanding clubs during this stretch. We’ll give the slight edge to the hosts on Sunday, but we really wouldn’t be all that surprised if this game went either way.

Dolphins @ Colts Pick: Indianapolis Colts +1.5
