Dolphins vs Jets Expert Picks & Predictions for Week 5 NFL Game

The 2022 NFL season is underway and the Week 5 schedule is full of exciting showdowns. One of the more intriguing matchups this week is an AFC East clash between the Miami Dolphins and New York Jets.

It'll be interesting to see how the Dolphins perform without Tua Tagovailoa following their 27-15 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals. Meanwhile, the Jets hope to start their first winning streak of the year after defeating the Pittsburgh Steelers, 24-20.
