In their most recent game, the Raiders of Las Vegas defeated the Jets with impressive efficiency, despite the game having a rather low score total.

This season, the Las Vegas Raiders have struggled mightily to put points on the scoreboard.

Expert Betting Tips

I will continue to back the Miami Dolphins. After suffering a disheartening defeat at the hands of Kansas City, the Miami Dolphins have had a lot of time to recuperate and get ready for this game, and the Hurricanes will be eager to get back out on the field. The Dolphins' defense played very well in that game, allowing only 267 yards of total offense (174 passing yards), recording 16 first downs, and converting only three of ten third-down opportunities. Despite this, Miami was only successful on three of their twelve third-down attempts, and they totaled just 175 throw yards. Following a stretch in which they scored 20 points or fewer in three of their previous six games, the Dolphins will be looking to get off to a quick start in this contest.
