#262 ASA PLAY ON 8* Miami Dolphins -9.5 vs New England Patriots, Sunday at 1 PM ET - The Patriots are coming off a big win over the Bills last week but will come crashing back down to earth against this Dolphins team. The Pats are 2-5 SU this season and 3-7 SU their last ten games. One of their losses earlier this season was at home to this Dolphins team 17-24 as a +1 point home underdog. Miami dominated that game by more than the final score as they averaged 6.4 yards per play compared to 4.1YPP for the Pats. The interesting note to this game is that the Patriots defensive scheme in the first meeting featured their best end rusher in Judon and best cover corner in Christian Gonzalez. Gonzalez was used to blanket Dolphins WR Hill in the first meeting and held the All-Pro to 40 yards on 5 receptions. Without those two defenders we expect the #1 rated Miami offense to explode for a huge number in this one. Miami is 1st in yards per game at 462, 1st in yards per play at 7.9, 1st in rushing and 1st in passing. Wait, did we mention they average 34.3PPG which is also the highest number in the NFL. New England ranks in the bottom third in the NFL in most key offensive categories including scoring at 14.4PPG. Miami is coming off an embarrassing loss on national TV to the Eagles and will pound their AFC East rival by 2 or more TD’s this weekend.
