The Miami Dolphins are 7-7 on the season and hoping they can find a way back to the playoffs despite some long odds. They start that journey this weekend with a game at South Florida’s Hard Rock Stadium against the Jacksonville Jaguars, who make the trek down I-95. The Jaguars, 4-10 on the season, are coming to the end of a disappointing season, especially when compared to last year’s AFC Championship Game appearance.
The Dolphins opened this week’s betting lines as a 3.5-point favorite, just slightly ahead of the normal three-point home-field advantage sports books give.
