Why Bet on Dolphins versus Ravens
The knock against Miami was that the Dolphins hadn’t beaten a team with a record better than .500. Miami put those concerns to rest in the 22-20 win against the Cowboys.
What’s important to note about the win is that Tua threw for 293 yards and a TD and didn’t throw a pick. It’s also important to note that Miami’s defense stood tell when holding the Cowboys to just 20 points, well below Dallas’ average.
Now that they’ve got the you can’t beat a good team monkey off their backs, the Dolphins should put forth another fantastic effort.

Why Bet on Ravens versus Dolphins
It wasn’t that Baltimore upset San Francisco on the road in their last. It’s that the Ravens dominated the 49ers by picking off Brock Purdy 4 times and sacking San Francisco’s quarterback twice.
The Ravens also destroyed San Francisco’s defense. Lamar Jackson threw for 252 yards and a pair of TDs. The 49ers were in the wrong defense early, looking to stop Baltimore’s run, and Lamar made them pay.

- Total Yards: 372.1
- Passing Yards: 212.4

- Points Scored: 27.8
- Turnovers: 16

Baltimore versus Miami Final Betting Prediction
Baltimore is a veteran team. So we shouldn’t expect any type of bounce from Lamar and his mates. However, Miami could bounce to the moon.
After Miami scored a massive victory, 70-20 over the Denver Broncos, the Dolphins traveled to Buffalo where the Bills spanked the Fins 28-20. After beating the Commanders 45-15, Miami lost at home to Tennessee.
Baltimore is as steady as it gets. The Ravens have won 5 straight because they leave emotion out of it. Baltimore easily covers.

2022 NFL Week 2 Betting Preview for Miami Dolphins at Baltimore Matchup
You can’t make the playoffs in the opening 2 weeks of the season, but you can certainly put yourself in a position were getting in becomes a good deal tougher. Both the Miami Dolphins and the Baltimore Ravens saw their season get off to a winning start, and another win this weekend would help them build some momentum moving forward. For Miami, this season is all about seeing if Tua Tagovailoa can establish himself as the starting QB for the future, while the Ravens are looking to rebound from a disappointing season that went off the rails due to injury. Yes, it’s still very early in the season, but this is a big game for both teams as they look to assert their dominance in the AFC. As you might expect, the Ravens are in as a 3 ½ point home favorite, with the point total for this one set at 44 ½. With all that mind, let’s take a closer look at both teams and how they arrive to this matchup so you can place your bets against their NFL Odds.

Why Bet on the Miami Dolphins
As we mentioned at the top of this piece, the jury is still somewhat out on Tua Tagovailoa as a starting QB in the NFL. The Dolphins certainly seem to have faith in him, though, as they went out and got Tyreek Hill from the Chiefs to give their QB a complete weapon to throw to. That connection worked well in Week 1, with both players playing well in a 20-7 win over the New England Patriots. This, though, is a much tougher task in what will be a rather hostile environment. In terms of betting, the Dolphins have been great against the spread, going 8-2-1 ATS in their last 11 games overall, while also going 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games played in the month of September. For the point total, the UNDER has hit in the last 5 Dolphins road games.
Why Bet on the Baltimore Ravens
All the news out of Baltimore right now is about Lamar Jackson refusing a lucrative contract offer from the Ravens, meaning that he really needs to deliver the goods this season if he wants his next contract to be bigger than what was previously offered. Jackson was decent in the opening week, passing for 3 TDs, but also 1 INT in a 24-9 win over the New York Jets, who do not look like a very good team again this season. The Ravens have done a good job of delivering for bettors when playing teams with a winning record, going 9-3 ATS in their last 12 games against such opponents. In their last 6 games as a favorite, the UNDER has hit in all 6 of those outings. I think we are seeing a definite trend here that makes for a rather obvious bet.
Expert Pick and Final Score Prediction
I think this one is going to be incredibly tight and could well come down to a field goal to win the game. I am leaning towards the Dolphins springing the mild SU upset, but I think the wager to go with in this one is the UNDER, as I like both defenses to excel.
