Ravens vs Dolphins Prediction
The current betting odds have the Ravens listed as a 7.5 point favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. The Ravens haven't looked good in their games this season with their 2-5 record overall which has them right near the bottom of the AFC North. They have had a terrible start to the season with one of the worst defenses in the NFL giving up a ton of points, but they have also been dealing with a lot of injuries too. They are starting to turn things around though, coming out of their bye week with a 30-16 win over the Bears, and that was with Lamar Jackson still out. Jackson should be back for this game though and that will give this Ravens offense a huge boost. Meanwhile, the Dolphins have looked terrible in their games this season with their 2-6 record overall which has them right near the bottom of the AFC East. Their defense has been terrible this season as they have been giving up a ton of points and their offense hasn't looked great either. They are off a big bounce back win over the Falcons in their last one, winning 34-10, and they were able to take advantage of the Falcons missing some key players. That win was more of an anomaly for the Dolphins though and with how bad they have looked on both sides of the ball this year, they aren't going to follow up that game with another good one. The Ravens are getting healthier now and they have some momentum from that win over the Bears. The best way to place a bet here is on the Ravens to cover the spread in this game.
