The tightly contested AFC East will get even testier this afternoon when the Patriots and Dolphins square off against one another at Dolphin Stadium in Miami, FL. First place will be on the line and revenge will be on the mind of at least one team when things kick off at 1:00pm ET. NFL Picks at SBGglobal.com are favoring Miami -1 at home.
Patriots Breakdown: New England is certainly in unfamiliar territory sitting at 6-4 and in third place in the AFC East. However, a win over Miami and a Jets loss could put them in first place. The Patriots rallied from a big deficit in last Thursday against New York, but they could not close the deal in overtime, losing 34-31. New England is averaging 21.9 points per game this season.
Dolphins Breakdown: The Dolphins, like the Pats, are in uncharted waters as well, the difference being that they are happy about the change of scenery. Miami's 6-4 mark has them in second place in the division and feeling much better about the direction they are headed after last year's 1-15 finish. Last Sunday the Dolphins squeaked by the Raiders 17-15 and moved their point per game average at home to 17.83.
NFL Picks Betting Trend: The Under is 8-2 in Miami's last 10 games as home favorite versus AFC East team's with a total between 41.5 and 44.
