The Miami Dolphins couldn’t make it out of the Wild Card this past season due in part to starting Skylar Thompson at quarterback. But despite questions surrounding Tua Tagovailoa, Miami picked up his fifth-year option. Miami Dolphins odds started to shift this offseason starting with a splash hire at defensive coordinator, bringing in Vic Fangio. But Dolphins betting odds truly started to move after Miami traded for shutdown CB Jalen Ramsey from the Rams. Miami’s only loss this offseason was tight end Mike Gesicki. However, this team is poised again to compete in the AFC East should Tua stay healthy. The Dolphins odds to win the Super Bowl range from +2000 to +3000.

Dolphins inactives for today’s game in Buffalo.

CB Noah Igbinoghene
RB Raheem Mostert
OT Kendall Lamm
OL Brandon Shell
OL Liam Eichenbergz
TE Tanner Conner
Miami QB Tua Tagovailoa has been ruled OUT for Sunday’s game against the Bills.
Tagovailoa remains in the NFL’s concussion protocol and was not cleared in time to play in this week’s game. Miami opened at +9.5 but that number has jumped to +13 - 13.5 at major books due to the news of Tagovailoa’s status. If the number stays, it would be the largest spread in Wild Card Weekend history, beating the previous record of 12.
Miami faces Buffalo up north on Wild Card Weekend this Sunday.
Miami is +13.5 at FanDuel, and +13 at BetMGM, DraftKings, and Caesars. The Over/Under is 43.5 across the board. In December, when Miami first traveled to Buffalo, the Bills took the victory on a last-second field goal.

Miami faces the New York Jets at home to finish the regular season.
The Dolphins are -3.5 across the board. The Over/Under is 37.5 at FanDuel and 37 at other major books. The Dolphins must win to clinch a playoff spot. A loss opens the door for Pittsburgh to take their spot or for New England to claim the sixth seed.

The Dolphins are +2.5 across the board. The Over/Under is 41.5 at FanDuel and 41 at other major books. Miami will be without QB Tua Tagovailoa, but needs a win to retain its current wild card spot with three teams just one game behind in the playoff hunt.
Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa has been placed in the NFL’s concussion protocol.
Tagovailoa is entering the protocol again after previously suffering a head injury earlier in the season before returning to the team. Miami faces New England this week in a critical game for their playoff hopes, and will likely do so with Teddy Bridgewater under center.

How to bet on the Miami Dolphins
Moneyline
The moneyline is the simplest of bets, decided by the straight-up winner and loser of each game. Consider the following example:
- Dolphins +185
- Saints -140
The Dolphins are considered underdogs in this matchup (indicated by +185), with a total payout of $285 on a $100 bet ($185 in winnings plus the initial $100 bet back). The Saints are the favorite in this matchup, with bettors needing to wager $140 to win $100 (plus their initial $100 bet back). How much either team wins or loses by does not matter in moneyline betting, the payout remains the same.
Point spread
Betting on the point spread is determinant on how many points a team wins or loses by. Take the following example:
- Dolphins -4.5 (-110)
- Ravens +4.5 (-110)
In this example, Miami is favored by 4.5 points, indicated by “-4.5.” If the Dolphins win the game 30-25, the Dolphins (-4.5) win the bet and would have a total payout of $19.09 on a $10 bet ($9.09 in profit). If the Ravens keep the game within five and lose 24-20, the Ravens (+4.5) would win, and the payout would be the same as listed above.
Point total (over/under)
The point total refers to the over/under line set by books. This number projects the total number of points scored in a game and, like prop betting, is bet whether one thinks the score will go over or under the set point total. For example, a Dolphins matchup with the San Francisco 49ers had a projected point total of 48.5 points. The Dolphins won that game 43-17, resulting in 60 points scored. Those who bet the over on the game cashed out.
With a strong defense that forced lots of turnovers, the Dolphins had a lower expected point total for most of their games. Their offense also struggled to move the ball at times, resulting in point totals that commonly fell between 45 and 51 points.
In-play and live betting
Sometimes, the most thrilling and rewarding bets are bets made while games are being played. These are referred to as live bets or in-play bets. Odds are ever-changing during games, which would prove to be fruitful for sharp and prepared bettors. For example, if the Dolphins (-225) were heavily favored against the Jaguars (+190) before kickoff, a payout on a $10 bet on the Dolphins to win would win just $4.44.
However, say the Dolphins fell to a big 20-3 deficit in the first half despite controlling the overall game (due to costly turnovers or special teams gaffes). Odds may swing in favor of the Jaguars, who may be a -110 favorite at halftime. Taking the Dolphins to come back and win the game could present plus-odds (say, +130). Should a bettor take Miami (+130) at halftime and the Dolphins pull off the comeback, winners would win $13 instead of $4.44 (plus the initial $10 bet).
This could also be an effective way to “hedge” your bet; say a bettor took the Jaguars (+190) in that game, but Miami jumps out to a 17-0 first quarter lead and is controlling the overall feel of the game, bettors could hedge by throwing some money down on Miami (-270) to return some of the inevitably-lost bet.
Parlays and teasers
You can always string bets together in the form of parlays or teasers. Usually during busy Sundays, bettors can parlay several teams to win or cover against the spread and if all bets are successful, the payouts are multiplied. Teasers function similarly, except they allow bettors to move each point spread to a more favorable line in exchange for diminished odds.
Futures
Futures are long-term bets that can range from an offseason to a full season (or beyond). Team win totals, award winners, and player performance are common futures.
