Bottom Line
This game pits two struggling teams, but Miami’s offensive weapons and home-field edge make them favorites. The Saints’ injuries on both sides of the ball limit their upside, while the Dolphins’ speed advantage (Hill, Waddle, Achane) should tilt the game. Expect Miami to control tempo, with the UNDER in play due to Saints’ offensive woes.
