We have bad news for those who went with the New York Jets at +3000 to win the Super Bowl when the season began. The Miami Dolphins could very well eliminate the Jets from playoff contention with a win on Sunday. The sports betting odds have the Dolphins favored against the visiting Jets.
There was a time when the Jets won three games in a row against the Dolphins, but that was nearly 10 years ago. A win on Sunday would give the Dolphins their third four-game winning streak against the Jets since the start of the 2017 season.
During that time, the Jets have won just twice in 13 matchups with their AFC East rivals. The Jets have covered just twice during that time.
The BetUS sportsbook has Miami listed as a 6-point favorite with -270 odds to win outright. The Jets are priced at +225 to come up with their second road win of the season.

Top 3 Jets vs Dolphins NFL Week 14 Picks
1. Jets vs Dolphins game to land under 44½
Three of the last four times that the Jets played on the road against the Dolphins, the game went under the total. The 44½-point total in the NFL ines is the highest since 2020 for a game when the Jets play at Miami.
The Dolphins are coming off a disappointing showing in Green Bay as the cold weather seemed to impact the quality of play on the field. The 17 points scored by the Dolphins were the second fewest for any game this season started by Miami quarterback Tua Tagovailoa.
The good news is that chilly conditions will not be an issue when the teams meet in the Sunshine State.
Can Tua light it up on Sunday like he did in 2021 with that 65-yard pass to Mack Hollins? Dolphins need that W badly against the Jets!#NFL #GoFins pic.twitter.com/sv5bSquXLl

It took a kickoff return for a touchdown for the Jets to get to 21 points in a Week 13 loss to the Seattle Seahawks. Will they top that mark this week?
When making Jets vs Dolphins NFL predictions, go with this game to land under the total.
2. Dolphins to Win Outright ML (-270)
Perhaps if Tyler Huntley, Skylar Thompson or Tim Boyle were still taking snaps at quarterback for the Miami Dolphins, there might be a reason for optimism for the Jets heading into the Week 14 matchup.
The offense for Miami is starting to click now that Tagovailoa is back. Receivers Tyreek Hill and Jayden Waddle are popular NFL prop picks once again while running back De’Von Achane is coming off back-to-back games with seven receptions.

Miami has some room to make up if it wants to reach the playoffs and this is a game the Dolphins need to win to remain a viable playoff contender.
The Dolphins winning outright is the best NFL expert pick today.

3. Bet the First Score to Take Some Time
It would be quite an understatement to suggest that the Jets tend to take awhile to get going on offense. There are times, quite a few of them, when the offense never hits its stride.
The Jets haven’t scored on the first possession of the game since getting a field goal in a 23-20 loss to the Buffalo Bills and that happened in mid-October.
Miami has scored just two touchdowns in the first quarter in its last five games. When making NFL picks, the +107 odds for the first score in the Jets-Dolphins game to come after the seven-minute mark look pretty good.
