Tua Tagovailoa, Quarterback, Dolphins

Tagovailoa entered Week 8 starring nan NFL successful interceptions, but he turned successful a beardown capacity successful nan upset triumph complete Atlanta, throwing for 205 yards and 4 scores while completing 76.9 percent of his passes.

Week 8 was a immense bounce-back showing for Tagovailoa, arsenic he had thrown 1 people and six interceptions successful his erstwhile 2 games. 

If Miami wants immoderate chance astatine salvaging this season, Tagovailoa is going to person to look a batch much for illustration nan subordinate he was connected Sunday. The Ravens entered Week 8 astatine No. 30 successful nan NFL successful EPA/Pass, but they held Caleb Williams without a touchdown and picked him disconnected once.

With Jackson expected to return successful this game, Tagovailoa is going to person a awesome trial to lead his discourtesy to capable points to triumph this game. 

Ravens vs. Dolphins Prediction and Pick

There has ne'er been an easier OVER stake to make betwixt 2 teams that person mixed for conscionable 4 wins successful 8 weeks.

Miami has deed nan OVER successful six of its 8 games, and it entered Week 8 past successful EPA/Play and 30th successful points allowed this season. The Ravens were successful a akin spot, ranking 30th successful EPA/Play and 29th successful points allowed earlier giving up conscionable 16 points to nan Bears.

The difference? Baltimore cleared nan 45.5 full successful Week 8 down a 30-point showing from nan team’s discourtesy pinch Tyler Huntley starring nan way. Jackson is expected to return, but Huntley looked overmuch amended successful Baltimore’s strategy than Cooper Rush did successful erstwhile weeks. 

If Jackson does play, it should beryllium a awesome changeable successful nan limb to a Baltimore squad that is 6-1 to nan OVER and averaged astir 40 points per crippled successful nan first 3 weeks pinch Jackson successful nan lineup, scoring 40, 41 and 30 points successful those games.

Since these 2 defenses person struggled for astir of nan season, I’m not betting connected them to person a shutdown showing successful Week 9. 

This should beryllium a high-scoring matter connected Thursday night. 

Pick: OVER 50.5 (-110 astatine DraftKings)
