Denver Broncos (0-2) vs. Miami Dolphins (2-0)
Denver Broncos vs. Miami Dolphins 9/24/23 – Week Three of 2023 NFL Season will see an intriguing matchup between Denver Broncos and Miami Dolphins; two teams with vastly differing records: Denver is winless while Miami has had an excellent start. Kickoff for this game at Hard Rock Stadium on September 24th begins at 1:00 pm ET; CBS will broadcast it live.
Denver has struggled in both offensive and defensive departments of late, displaying few consistencies across key positions like Javonte Williams in the backfield who is only averaging 3.8 yards per carry and has not scored in two games despite two attempts at touchdown. Meanwhile rookie wide receiver Marvin Mims Jr has shown tremendous promise by collecting four receptions with an average receiving yardage rate of 30.5 per catch.
However, the Dolphins appear to be operating smoothly. Raheem Mostert has averaged 5.6 yards per carry and reached the end zone three times so far this season; Tyreek Hill has become an outstanding receiver, amassing 254 receiving yards and three touchdowns in just two games!

Russell Wilson QB vs. Tua Tagovailoa QB
Russell Wilson has put up respectable numbers thus far for the Denver Broncos even though their results haven’t translated to wins. With a 68.2% completion rate, 485 passing yards, five touchdowns to one interception ratio, and 108.5 passer rating overall he boasts impressive statistics so far; yet he has been sacked nine times already suggesting weaknesses in their offensive line. Wilson will play an essential role as Denver tries to defeat Miami Dolphins; his game-management abilities and scrambling skills could very well be pivotal as they extend plays while simultaneously performing under high-pressure scenarios can potentially become game-changers!
Tua Tagovailoa has made an outstanding start to his 2023 Dolphins campaign. Already, Tagovailoa has amassed 715 passing yards at an astounding 65.3% completion rate while throwing four touchdown passes against just two interceptions. Tua’s passer rating of 102.9 speaks volumes of his efficiency and effectiveness in leading Miami’s fast-paced offense. Additionally, unlike Wilson who was sacked multiple times this season, Tua only experienced one sack during this season which indicates improved protection and possibly quicker decision-making in the pocket. His long-ball capabilities, with an average of 9.5 yards per pass attempt, pose a considerable threat to Denver’s defense. Furthermore, the contrast in styles between young, aggressive Tagovailoa and veteran Wilson makes an intriguing subplot in an otherwise story-filled matchup.
NFL Odds/Point Spread: Miami Dolphins -285, Total Odds: 48
Betting odds heavily favor Miami with moneyline odds of -285 and spread odds of -6.5, especially given Denver’s recent track record against them. Furthermore, Denver tends to go over in recent games so this total over/under limit might tempt bettors who have an interest in betting overs.
Denver Broncos Betting Trends
Denver Broncos have proven themselves a risky bet lately, posting an ATS record of just 1-4 in their last five games and an SU record of 0-5 during that span on the road. When it comes to over/under betting, Denver games tend to go over their total six out of seven times!
Miami Dolphins Betting Trends
Miami has been an outstanding bettors’ team recently, covering the spread in four of their last five games and keeping all nine home contests within their set total – an 8-1 mark since their return from Hard Rock Stadium last September. Furthermore, their games tend to lean toward under totals; seven of the last eight home contests went under that mark.
Denver Broncos vs. Miami Dolphins 9/24/23 Betting Picks
Given both teams’ current forms and recent trends, Miami appears to be the safer bet, particularly at home where they’ve been nearly unstoppable against Denver. A spread of -6.5 seems reasonable given that Miami has been performing so well on both sides of the ball.
For those considering over/under bets, the total of 48 appears to be a coinflip. While Denver games tend to go over, Miami home games have trended toward going under this year – so an approach might be to stay away from this bet altogether this time around.
