Bill Speros writes: "It probably won't matter who the Dolphins have at QB this week. The Lions sold America some past-due milk during "Hard Knocks" this past summer. Detroit has scored just six points in its past two games and does not have a 45-year-old quarterback to blame for its ills."

It writes: "The Lions looked good through the first four weeks, keeping games close or climbing back into them every week. However, their past two games have seen them lose by a combined 43-6. They very well could get back on track, but nothing has suggested it’s coming. We’ll stick with Miami covering with the win."

Adam Taylor McKillop writes: "Oddsmakers are giving Miami the edge ahead of this contest. ESPN's FPI also likes the Dolphins, and I'm in agreement. Despite some impressive offensive performances to start the year, the Lions have only managed to win one game so far. Miami, on the other hand, has looked like a playoff team when healthy and is trending up with the return of Tua Tagovailoa."
