Odds On Miami Dolphins
Bettors have piled on the Dolphins, sending their AFC East title odds from +1200 to +750. Consider betting the Dolphins when they visit the Raiders in Week 16. The Dolphins are 0-8 ATS this decade the week after hosting the Patriots (Week 15), losing every game by more than a TD. MIAMI DOLPHINS BETTING PROFILE. 2019 record: 5-11 (last, AFC East). Concerning Dolphins futures betting for 2020-21, the market doesn’t consider the team to be much of a contender. Miami’s Super Bowl LV odds of +8000 at FanDuel Sportsbook are tied with the New York Giants for the 5 th longest odds of all 32 NFL teams. Their AFC Championship odds of +4000 are the 3 rd longest in the conference. The market does acknowledge that some improvement over last.
The Miami Dolphins were able to transcend expectations in 2019 on their way to a 5-11 season — allowing the team to carry momentum into the new decade. Along with the new season come new expectations for Miami — but what would overachieving look like this year as compared to the 2019 campaign?
The latest BetMGM betting odds have the Dolphins favored to win between 5-8 games this upcoming season — offering -304 odds for the team land somewhere in that range by the end of the 2020 season. A winning record would certainly be considered a surprise; although it shouldn’t necessarily be considered outside the realm of possibility. The odds seem to indicate Miami’s most likely win total this season will be 6 wins — a slight improvement from the 5-11 record the team posted last season.
If the Dolphins indeed “overachieve” and surpass that number, fans of the team should be thrilled by the progress. Keeping an even keeled approach to Miami’s growth, development and improvements is going to be a challenge after a 5-4 stretch to finish the 2019 season, but it is necessary. As the saying goes, Rome wasn’t built in a day. Neither will this Dolphins’ roster. But, at the very least, the odds seem to set a low bar for Miami — one that is easily achievable and sets the Dolphins up to once again be overachievers in the eyes of the bettors.
