Big Match Previews
New England Patriots at Miami Dolphins
The Patriots have opened as a 18.5-point favourite over the Dolphins, who lost their opener 59-10 to the Ravens. Amazingly, this is the biggest road favourite the Patriots have been in over 10 years. After a disappointing start to the season, the Dolphins’ cause is not helped by the fact that a number of players are reportedly trying to get out of Miami and Antonio Brown will be making his Patriots debut. It would be very surprising if the Patriots didn’t achieve another blowout win in Florida.
New Orleans Saints at Los Angeles Rams
After the Rams controversially beat the Saints 26-23 to progress to Super Bowl 53, everyone knows that there is no love lost between these two teams. What makes this rematch even more enticing is that both teams earned narrow victories in Week 1. It will be interesting to witness the matchup between Saints top receiver Michael Thomas and Rams cornerback Marcus Peters.
