Philadelphia Eagles vs Miami Dolphins Prediction & Betting Tips - NFL
by Joseph King | in NFL Predictions
A pair of 5-1 teams face off for a blockbuster Sunday Night Football matchup in week seven of the 2023/24 NFL season. The NFC East first-place Philadelphia Eagles play host to the AFC East leading Miami Dolphins in the marquee matchup of the week. Philadelphia will be looking to respond strongly following their first defeat of the season last week. The Eagles were unable to keep hold of the football as they lost 20-14 to the Zach Wilson led New York Jets. Last season’s Super Bowl runners-up, the Eagles started off the season red-hot with five straight wins. During that time, they claimed victories over the Rams, Bucs and Vikings but Miami will be their biggest test so far. They return now to Lincoln Financial Field where they are 2-0 on the year. Expect Philly to take much better care of the football after committing four turnovers last week. Their carelessness with the ball was the driving factor that caused them to lose that game.
The Dolphins have experienced an unbelievable start to the 2023/24 season and are looking like one of the best teams in the NFL. They yet again showed off their highly-potent offense in their latest win over the Panthers last week. Miami went down 14-0 after the first quarter before responding with 21 points in the third quarter, seven in the third and another 14 in the fourth for a 42-21 win. The Phins have far-and-away the best offense in the league up to this point and are putting up some astonishing numbers. Their 40.3% offensive DVOA is nearly a full 10% higher than the second-place 49ers. The win over Carolina was the team’s second in a row after their week four loss to the Bills. The team is averaging a league-high 37.2 points per game and leads in nearly all offensive statistics.

Our Philadelphia Eagles vs Miami Dolphins Prediction
While Miami’s offense is unquestionably great, their defense presents problems. It will be interesting to see how they perform in a big road game against a legitimate Super Bowl contending side. Philadelphia, meanwhile, is simply more proven in spots like this after their performance last year. Last week saw Jalen Hurts throw three interceptions for only the second time in his career. We likely won’t see the home team turn the ball over like they did in that game. Our Philadelphia Eagles vs Miami Dolphins prediction is for the Eagles to win and cover the -2.5 point spread.
