Picks for 11/11/24

Rotation # 285
Dolphins +2.5 over Rams (win)
The Dolphins’ playoff dreams seem like a longshot, and they would need a lot to happen, but outside of the division leaders, the AFC is wide open. Miami QB Tua Tagovailoa looked sharp last week and has knocked off the rust from being out a few weeks with a head injury. Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua are back from early-season injuries, but their offensive line has been a mess. Rob Havenstein won’t play tonight, and Kevin Dotson is questionable because of an ankle injury. Joe Notebook, Alaric Jackson, and Jonah Jackson are returning to the lineup after being on IR, but I don’t see them being in game shape right away. We are talking about every last opening-day starter dealing with an injury and not playing together yet. Every team is hurting at this point in the year, but I am not a fan of the Rams in the trenches. Look for Miami to run the ball with De’Von Achane and Raheem Mostert to loosen up the passing game for Jaylen Waddle and tight end Jonnu Smith. The Dolphins defense will keep them in this game long enough for a possible outright win. Take the Dolphins.
