Jacksonville Jaguars at Miami Dolphins odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Sunday’s Jacksonville Jaguars at Miami Dolphins odds and lines, with expert NFL picks and predictions.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3011″ ]

The Jacksonville Jaguars and Miami Dolphins meet for Week 1 NFL action Sunday. Kickoff from Hard Rock Stadium is set for 1 p.m. ET (CBS). Below, we analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the Jaguars vs. Dolphins odds, and make our expert NFL picks and predictions.

Jacksonville looks to rebound after its disappointing finish to last season that saw the Jaguars lose 5 of their last 6 games and miss the playoffs. After paying QB Trevor Lawrence this offseason, the Jags are looking for Lawrence to live up to that former 1st overall pick potential.

Miami is hoping to continue what has been a stretch of successful regular seasons under HC Mike McDaniel this season. After continuing to have an electric offense, the Dolphins want to see their regular season success turn into playoff victories.

Jaguars at Dolphins picks and predictions

Prediction

Dolphins 31, Jaguars 21

Moneyline

PASS. 

The Dolphins will win here as -175 favorites, but the line is set just slightly too favorably to risk betting on. Bet on the spread and/or total instead.

Against the spread

BET DOLPHINS -3.5 (-105). 

Miami is the better team on both sides of the ball, and Jacksonville will simply have no answer for the speedy WR duo of Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle. Look for Miami’s offense to dominate here.

Over/Under

BET OVER 49 (-110). 

Neither of these teams hangs their hat on the defensive side of the ball, and combine that with the potency of Miami’s offense and you have a perfect formula for this game to smash the Over. Jacksonville is also no slouch offensively, so look for the Jags to be able to put up some points as well.

Jacksonville Jaguars +3.5 (-117) vs. Miami Dolphins

The NFL is serving up another London dud as the winless Jaguars take on the 1-4 Dolphins, whose only victory was a 17-16 opening-week escape at the New England Patriots.

Moreover, each side’s offense and defense rank as a bottom-five NFL unit in terms of scoring and points allowed per game.

Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa is hoping to play after a three-week IR stint with a rib injury, and that should provide a boost for a Miami offense which ranks 30th in passing (191.4 yards per game).

But with rookie QB Trevor Lawrence getting his NFL legs under him and the Jags owning a significant advantage in the run game with stud second-year RB James Robinson (fourth in the league with 387 yards while averaging 5.8 yards per attempt), there’s no reason why Miami should be favored by anything more than a point or two.

Detroit Lions +3.5 (-110) vs. Cincinnati Bengals

Yep, we’re on each of the league’s winless teams this week.

Head coach Dan Campbell’s 0-5 Lions have been particularly feisty with a 3-2 record against the spread and losing two of their last three on 54-yard-plus field goals on the game’s final play.

Led by the QB Joe Burrow– WR Ja’Marr Chase LSU connection that’s already clicked for five TDs, the Bengals are 3-2. But they are also 2-3 ATS, now a road favorite for only the third time since 2018 and are in a prime look-past-the-winless-opponent spot with a game against the division-leading Baltimore Ravens looming next week.

Take the scrappy Lions and the field goal-plus.

Tennessee Titans +5.5 (-110) vs. Buffalo Bills

Speaking of red-flag letdown spots, the 4-1 Bills are playing in their second straight primetime road game after notching a massive revenge 38-20 win at the host Kansas City Chiefs Sunday night.

The Tennessee defense, ranked 24th with 26.0 points allowed per game, is a clear concern facing Bills QB Josh Allen and the league’s highest-scoring offense (34.4 points). But if the 3-2 Titans can avoid turnovers (Buffalo has an NFL-most 15 takeaways) and get league rushing leader RB Derrick Henry (640 yards, 7 TDs) and the play-action game going with capable QB Ryan Tannehill, the hosts should be able to keep this Monday night matchup close.

If you hold off until closer to kickoff, you might even be able to catch more points with the Titans as the line has already gone up two full points after opening at Bills -3.5.
