[1:00 PM] Dolphins @ Ravens

Who will WIN this matchup?

Miami Dolphins (7-4)

@ Baltimore Ravens (6-5)

 

• The line for this game is Baltimore by 3.5 points.

• The Miami Dolphins’ six-game winning streak has been built on a threat of a potent ground attack, but Jay Ajayi could find yards hard to come by against the host Baltimore Ravens on Sunday. Ajayi has rushed for 730 yards and five touchdowns during the win streak heading into his tilt with the AFC North co-leading Ravens, who boast the league’s top-ranked rush defense (74.9 yards per game).

• Tannehill likely will be without one of his weapons on Sunday in Parker, who missed practice on Wednesday and Thursday with a back injury. Parker has 16 catches for 2456 yards over his last 3 games. Jarvis Landry leads Miami in receptions (64) and receiving yards (733) while fellow wideout Kenny Stills has three of his team-best five touchdowns in his last five games.

• Baltimore’s second-ranked defense (297.8 yards per game) is led by linebacker Terrell Suggs, who recorded two sacks and two forced fumbles last week and three of each in the last three contests. Suggs hasn’t been shy against the Dolphins, collecting at least one sack in each of his seven career encounters. Top cornerback Jimmy Smith is in line to return after a two-game absence due to a back injury and will likely shadow Landry

• Rookie G Laremy Tunsil (shoulder) expects to play after missing last week’s game for Miami, which is 4-0 this season when all five starting offensive linemen are healthy

• Baltimore K Justin Tucker earned AFC Special Teams Player of the Week honors after booting three field goals from beyond 50 yards in a 19-14 triumph over Cincinnati.

• Dolphins DE Cameron Wake has 7.5 sacks and two forced fumbles in his last six games.
