Miami Dolphins NFL Week 12 Betting Lines

By scoring a huge win in Tinseltown the previous week and following it up with a handling of the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 11, the Miami Dolphins have put themselves in a position to make a late run at locking down a playoff bid. Currently the ninth seed in the playoff chase and needing help, Mike McDaniel’s troops took advantage of the sweet spot on the schedule this past Sunday by unleashing its dormant offensive attack on the unsuspecting Raiders for 353 combined yards and a number of deep strikes that led to points keeping the visitors at an arm’s length the whole way through. The online sportsbook was none too pleased with the offensive explosion due to nearly 80 percent of the bets and 90 percent of the money expecting Miami to cover the 8-point closing spread. Linemakers took it on the chin with the total as well after the 53 combined points easily surpassed what proved to be a laughable 43.5-point total with 75 percent of the booked handle aligned with the over. It however looks like oddsmakers will surprisingly be fans of the host Miami Dolphins in Week 12 betting action when it looks to build upon its recent dominance of the AFC East rival New England Patriots with Tua Tagovailoa and his mates only backed by 40+ percent of the early bets and money.

Initially 25-1 and 12-1 underdogs to win Super Bowl LIX and the AFC respectively, the Fins odds of winning it all remained 100-1 while its odds of representing the AFC in the big game also held firm at 45-1. Due to the Bills running away from the pack and already being swept by Buffalo, Miami’s odds of winning the AFC East have been taken off the board. The team’s adjusted in-season win total odds also stayed put at 7.5 following back-to-back wins with heavier juice now attached to the high side of the offering. In terms of making the playoffs, the “Yes” was the -155 favorite heading into the regular season with the “No” paying out at +130. Now, the “No” is the -145 favorite, down from -500, with the “Yes” paying out $120 on a $100 wager after paying $350 just a week ago. I told you the playoff market was worth a beer money investment at the attractive plus-money return last week!
