Live thread: Dolphins at Rams on ‘Monday Night Football’

The Miami Dolphins (2-6) and Los Angeles Rams (4-4) will close out Week 10 with a cross-conference battle on “Monday Night Football.” These two teams have met just 14 times in their histories, with the Dolphins holding a 12-2 lead, including winning 11 of the last 12 matchups.

The Rams are on a three-game win streak and are working their way out of injury purgatory. With wide receivers Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua back in the mix, Matthew Stafford is cooking once again. Additionally, the Rams also activated two of their starting interior offensive lineman—Jonah Jackson and Steve Avila—on Monday, as the offense continues to heal.

Speaking of getting healthy, the Dolphins returned Tua Tagovailoa two weeks ago and the offense has come back to life. In the four games he missed, the Dolphins scored less than 15 points in each game, but upon his return, they’ve dropped 27 points in back-to-back weeks. The downside is that their defense gave up 30 points to the Bills and 28 points to the Cardinals, losing both games.

Betting line and pick for the game

The folks over at FanDuel Sportsbook are slightly favoring the home team in this game and have set the betting line at Rams -2.5 points. Both offenses can score, which lends itself to likely being an entertaining game to watch. The difference for me is their recent performances, where the Rams have found a way to win their last three while the Dolphins have lost their last three.

Prediction: Rams 27-24
