The Miami Dolphins almost certainly need to win out the rest of the way if they want a chance at catching the Ravens, Chargers, or Broncos, who all have eight wins.
Fortunately for Miami, two of its last five games are against the 3-9 New York Jets who are in the midst of a lost season. New York came into the year with lofty aspirations with Aaron Rodgers at quarterback, but the season has turned into a disaster, as the 41-year-old hasn’t been able to lift the Jets out of their annual mediocrity.
The Jets will attempt to play spoiler for their division rival Dolphins in the first of two matchups against them this Sunday. Miami can ill-afford to take New York lightly considering some of the talent they have to offer.
One of the most popular ways to bet on an NFL game is the anytime touchdown scorer prop. You bet on one player to score a touchdown, and if they do, you make money.
Sounds simple, right?
It’s not as easy as it seems, but it is rewarding when the player you bet does find the end zone – especially if he plays for your team
With the Dolphins facing the Jets on Sunday, we’ve highlighted one player you should bet to score a touchdown this week. Odds are courtesy of BetMGM.
Tyreek Hill anytime TD scorer: +125
The quickest way for the Dolphins to put the stamp on this contest will be to open up the passing game early and allow Tyreek Hill to dominate like he is capable of.
It’s been a difficult year statistically for Hill, in part because Tua Tagovailoa missed four games with a concussion. Hill has also been dealing with a wrist injury almost the entire season and has been consistently limited in practices, even if he hasn’t missed a game due to the injury.
The Jets will likely be without All-Pro cornerback Sauce Gardner, who is doubtful for Week 14, which should embolden the Miami passing game to take more shots downfield. This will open the door for Hill to break the game open with a big play touchdown reception, which hasn’t come often this season.
Hill should be starving for a big day since he has not produced a game of over 100 yards since a Week 1 win against the Jaguars. Hill has found the end zone in three out of the last four games, but not quite in the home run fashion Miami fans are used to seeing.
Look for Hill to be the game’s focal point this Sunday as the Dolphins attempt to kick off what would be a miraculous run at the postseason.
