Patriots vs. Dolphins opening odds: Pats in rebound territory in Week 8
The New England Patriots are entering Week 8 off a 30-24 defeat to the Chicago Bears. At least if the opening odds for their upcoming game against Miami Dolphins are to be believed, however, they are ripe for a rebound.
According to FanDuel Sportsbook, New England opens the week as 7.5-point favorites despite playing on the road.
Odds for Patriots vs. Dolphins in NFL Week 8- Spread: Patriots -7.5
- Moneyline: Patriots -405 | Dolphins +320
- Over/under: 44.5
The Patriots being favored by a significant margin is no surprise. Even though they just lost their third game of the season and continue to be hampered by injuries, they have looked like one of the better teams in football since the calendar turned to October.
The Dolphins, on the other hand, have won just one of six games so far this season. Of course, that victory happened just this Sunday, with a 28-25 defeat over the Jets.
Kickoff between Patriots and Dolphins is scheduled for 4:25 p.m. ET on Sunday, Nov. 1 at Miami's Hard Rock Stadium.
