Best Bets for Dolphins vs Colts

Miami Dolphins at Indianapolis Colts (Sun, 1:01 p.m. ET)

Miami Dolphins +4.5 (-115)

A real, meaningful number for Miami, which is getting more than a field goal on the road. The Colts have been reeling, and the market is pricing this as a game Indianapolis should win only by a possession. Starting a quarterback in his first NFL game gives the Dolphins a reason for the line to be generous, and the number makes Miami's chances of covering attractive.

Under 37.5 (-110)

One of the lowest totals on Sunday's afternoon board, and it fits this matchup. A rookie quarterback making his first start, a Colts passing game with a depleted receiver group, and two offenses that have struggled to score all point toward a low-scoring game.

Best Player Prop Bets for Dolphins vs Colts

Ollie Gordon II Anytime Touchdown (+105)

Gordon has taken over Miami's backfield since De'Von Achane was lost for the season, and he is also featured in the site's own parlay. With Miami's offense likely to lean on the run with a first-time starter at quarterback, Gordon is the most direct path to a touchdown, and a plus-money price makes it worth the bet.

Tyler Warren 15+ Yard Reception (-175)

Warren is Indianapolis's top target after the Colts traded Josh Downs and Keenan Allen, which makes him the clearest pass-catching option for Daniel Jones. A 15-yard catch is a realistic bar for a tight end who should see heavy targets in a game where the Colts need to move the chains.

Player Props to Watch

Jonathan Taylor is priced at -110 to score an anytime touchdown. The Colts kept him after the trade deadline, and he is the focal point of their offense. Malik Washington is at -185 to record 15-plus receiving yards, a notable price for a Dolphins receiver facing a new quarterback. Check the final injury reports before betting, since Dolphins receivers have carried designations this week.

Dolphins vs Colts Prediction

This is a matchup between two reeling teams, and the Dolphins' backfield with Ollie Gordon II gives them a path to stay close. Expect Miami to keep the game within a field goal, with McCord managing the game and Gordon doing much of the work on the ground. The Colts should win, but the total should stay under 37.5 as both offenses struggle to sustain drives.
