Blossoming Dolphins Host Atrocious Seahawks
The Seattle Seahawks (2-6 SU, 3-5 ATS, 5-3 O/U) were routed on Sunday, falling to the Philadelphia Eagles 26-7 and failed to cover the spread as 7-point road favorites in the BetUS Sportsbook. The Miami Dolphins (4-4 SU, 5-3 ATS, 4-4 O/U) are blossoming under head of football operations leader Bill Parcells and first-year head coach Tony Sparano.
BetUS NFL sports betting enthusiasts have an easy pick on their hands this week as the two teams heading in opposite directions square off on Sunday!
Miami won its second consecutive game this past Sunday, beating the inconsistent Denver Broncos 26-17 to cover the spread for online bettors as 4-point road favorites and face a Seahawks team that has dropped four of its last five overall.
While Miami scored just one offensive touchdown on Ronnie Brown’s 2-yard run late in the fourth quarter, the Dolphins’ suddenly powerful defense picked off Broncos quarterback Jay Cutler three times, including Will Allen’s 32-yard ‘pick-six’ in the first quarter.
Seattle was held to just 86 rushing yards and quarterback Seneca Wallace threw for just 169 yards while completing only 13 passes in 29 attempts and one touchdown. The Seahawks were also held scoreless for the game’s final three quarters after Wallace hooked up with wide receiver Koren Robinson less than two minutes into the contest for a 90-yard touchdown pass.

Analysis: The Dolphins have surpassed all expectations so far and are gaining confidence on both sides of the ball. Playing at home in this matchup against a Seahawks team that has apparently quit in head coach Mike Holmgren’s final season, I like Miami to pick up- an emphatic victory for BetUS NFL Sportsbook bettors.
Take the Fish to win and cover in a matchup that stays under the 43-point O/U.
