Dolphins vs Lions Prediction Week 8

Early NFL predictions and picks are from ESPN's Football Power Index (FPI).
Dolphins: 60.8% to win
Lions: 38.7% to win

Oddsmakers are giving Miami the edge ahead of this contest. ESPN's FPI also likes the Dolphins, and I'm in agreement. Despite some impressive offensive performances to start the year, the Lions have only managed to win one game so far.

Miami, on the other hand, has looked like a playoff team when healthy and is trending up with the return of Tua Tagovailoa. Take the Dolphins -3 (-115).
