It's a must-win game for both teams as the Dolphins take on the Ravens on TNF this week!
The Miami Dolphins take on the Baltimore Ravens in this week 9 Thursday Night Football (TNF) matchup. With both teams looking for a desperate win, this game should be an intense affair.
The Dolphins are currently 2-6 after winning their last game against the Falcons, whereas the Ravens are 2-5 after a win over the Chicago Bears in Week 8.
Game Details:
| Recommended Bets | FanDuel | BetMGM |
|---|---|---|
| Lamar Jackson Over 1.5 Passing TDs | -198 | -186 |
| Derrick Henry Anytime TD | -240 | -240 |
| Jaylen Waddle 60+ Receiving Yards | -138 | -132 |
Lamar Jackson is set to make his return after missing the past few games due to a hamstring injury. However, prior to the injury, Jackson was playing MVP-level football with 10 touchdown passes from just 4 games, including 3 games in which he threw multiple touchdowns.
Ravens running back Derrick Henry is one of the most explosive backs in the game today. He already has 6 touchdowns from just 7 games and has a general tendency to find the endzone at least once every game.
Jaylen Waddle is the WR1 for the Dolphins after Tyreek Hill sustained a season-ending injury. In the past four games, Waddle has put up more than 90 receiving yards 3 times. The Ravens’ defense showed some life last week, and if the secondary continues to play well, they could limit Waddle’s overall production on Thursday.
Both teams have struggled mightily this season. While Miami has been dealt a severe blow by the loss of Tyreek Hill for the season, Baltimore had to navigate injuries, in particular to quarterback Lamar Jackson, who was playing MVP-caliber football in the first few weeks.
There is not much hope for the Dolphins with the way they have been playing this year, but the Ravens have a chance at getting their season back on track. Baltimore’s defense came alive last week, and Lamar Jackson is also set to start on Thursday.
Prediction: Baltimore Ravens to win.
