Dolphins 2.5-point underdogs vs. Falcons in Week 7

Following their heartbreaking loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars in London, their fifth of the season, the Miami Dolphins will play host to the Atlanta Falcons at Hard Rock Stadium on Sunday.

According to Tipico Sportsbook, Brian Flores’ team has opened the week as 2.5-point underdogs for their Week 7 game. Tipico also has the Falcons as the favorites on the money line, as their victory is currently set at -140. The over/under in the contest is set at 47.5 points.

The Dolphins got starting quarterback Tua Tagovailoa back after missing three weeks to a rib injury. His 300-yard performance didn’t save the team from poor play-calling and decision-making that eventually cost them their game.

Hopefully, they will get cornerbacks Xavien Howard and Byron Jones back in Week 8, and they could benefit from wide receiver DeVante Parker playing as well.

Atlanta is coming off of a bye week after they won a matchup with the Jets in London. Both sides of the ball have been lackluster for head coach Arthur Smith’s team, but rookie tight end Kyle Pitts and wideout Calvin Ridley could cause problems for Miami’s struggling defense.
