“Sunday Night Football”<\/a> will feature the juiciest matchup of the week when the Miami Dolphins<\/a> (5-1) visit the Philadelphia Eagles<\/a> (5-1).
The Miami Dolphins put up another big day in a 21-point win over the winless Carolina Panthers<\/a>. The Dolphins are average a whopping 498.7 yards and 37.2 points per game and are showing no signs of slowing down as one of the best teams in the NFL.
Philadelphia’s perfect start ended against the New York Jets, as the offense was shut down and made several mistakes in the Eagles’ first loss of the season<\/a>. The offense will need to play much better than last week if they want to keep up with the momentum Miami has.

Miami\u2019s speed is an issue that I think makes this an incredibly difficult matchup for Philly\u2019s defense, even though it is more than formidable. I think the difference will be on the other side, where the Dolphins are shaky on defense, but can generate pressure in Vic Fangio\u2019s scheme. And, the Eagles\u2019 offensive line has been uncharacteristically average this season.
Sunday night features what many believe to be the game of the week. The 5-1 Eagles are coming off a stunning loss. While the Dolphins are clicking on all cylinders offensively. Will the Eagles be able to slow down Miami\u2019s prolific offense? Games are won in the trenches. The Eagles have arguably the best offensive line and defensive line in football.
Tua Tagovailoa and the NFL\u2019s most potent offense will face its toughest test against the Eagles on Sunday night. The Dolphins\u2019 run defense will be their downfall in this one, but Tagovailoa and Tyreek Hill should be able to keep pace and strike late to take down Jalen Hurts and the Eagles at home.
With a projected temperature of 41 degrees and a raucous crowd at the Linc, the Dolphins have the odds stacked against them. The Eagles are brushing off an embarrassing loss that took away their undefeated label and Jalen Hurts will be fired up to get his team back to the win column.
One would think the Dolphins would be getting a big win after last week, but there’s always something about playing in Philly. Expect a scoring bonanza in this one, and the Eagles offense to wake up after the embarrassment against the Jets. The Eagles get a big home win against the best offense in the NFL.
