Dolphins vs. Rams Public Betting: Bettors Love L.A. on MNF

Hill’s status up in the air for MNF
NFL Network’s Tyreek Hill (wrist) is “truly up in the air” for Week 10 against the Rams. Hill re-aggravated a training camp wrist injury earlier this week. He was held out of practice on Friday and Saturday before being listed as questionable. Per Pelissero, the Dolphins may not know until warmups if Hill will be able to suit up. Miami plays on Monday, meaning replacement options for Hill will be scarce if he can’t play. Coming off consecutive two-touchdown performances, Demarcus Robinson would be the best bet among Monday Night Football’s participants.
Kupp coming off huge game
Cooper Kupp caught 11-of-14 targets for 104 yards in the Rams’ Week 9 win over the Seahawks. Kupp saved a quiet Week 8 box score with a touchdown. His stat line didn’t need saving this week as he was able to dominate LA’s targets and top 100 yards for the first time since Week 1.
Kupp’s lofty target total could be written off as the product of Puka Nacua getting ejected at the end of the first half, but Kupp had nine targets to Nacua’s four before the second-year wideout was tossed. The more likely explanation is that Nacua is still working through his knee injury and his opportunities were limited. If Nacua isn’t at full strength for LA’s Week 10 matchup with Miami, Kupp will jump him in the fantasy rankings in route to a WR1 projection.

Dolphins vs. Rams Prediction:
Take Los Angeles. The Rams are still to roll. They’ve won three straight games to get to 4-4. Matthew Stafford has his full complement of weapons again, he’s healthy and Kyren Williams is a beast in the run game. Miami’s defense has played well, but Sean McVay has a way of moving the ball against most defenses.
As for the Dolphins, they’ve looked better since Tua came back from his latest concussion. They’ve scored 27 points in back-to-back games and nearly upset the Bills last Sunday in Buffalo. That said, even when Tua has played, the Dolphins still feel as though they’re missing something. They have yet to score 30 points in a game this season, which was a common occurrence a year ago. They’re now 2-8 over their last 10 games dating back to last season, which includes a 2-8 ATS mark as well.
Dolphins vs. Rams NFL Prediction: LOS ANGELES RAMS -2.5
