Monday Night Football Week 4 Best Bets
Titans vs. Dolphins Betting Preview
Both 0-3 Tennessee and 1-2 Miami are off to rough starts to the year.
The Dolphins will start their third quarterback in the last three weeks on Monday night, with Tyler Huntley stepping in after injuries to Tua Tagovailoa and Skylar Thompson.
Miami has been unable to move the ball since Tagovailoa went down in a Week 2 loss to Buffalo. The Dolphins lost that game 31-10, and they followed that up with a 24-3 loss to Seattle last Sunday. In the loss to the Seahawks, Miami gained just 205 yards of total offense, as neither the passing game or the running game could get going.
The Dolphins’ starter on Monday, Huntley, spent the past four seasons as Lamar Jackson’s backup in Baltimore. Over nine starts in four seasons, Huntley has posted a completion percentage of 64.6 (221-of-342 passing), with eight touchdowns and seven interceptions, but just 5.7 yards per attempt.
The Titans are winless despite playing solid defense in both Weeks 1 and 2.
Tennessee lost its season opener to the Bears after jumping out to a 17-3 lead at halftime because of brutal turnovers and special teams mistakes, and it lost the turnover battle 2-0 in the loss to the Jets as well.
Turovers were also an issue in Week 3. QB Will Levis threw two more interceptions, and the Titans gave up 188 yards rushing and 30 points to the Malik Willis-led Packers.
For the season, Levis has thrown five picks in just 94 passing attempts. Only one player in the NFL, Colts QB Anthony Richardson, has thrown more picks this year, and only two QBs have posted a higher interception percentage than Levis (5.3 percent).
Tennessee should be able to make this a close, low-scoring game, but I like the Mike McDaniel-led Miami offense to get a spark from Huntley and make just enough happen for the Fins to win a close one.
Titans vs. Dolphins Best Bets:
- Dolphins -2.5 (-115 at DK, FD and bet365)
- First half under 17.5 (-110 at DK)
Seahawks vs. Lions Betting Preview
Two of the best teams in the NFC so far this season — 3-0 Seattle and 2-1 Detroit — meet in in the late game on Monday night.
Seattle is off to a 3-0 start, with close wins over the Broncos and Patriots in Weeks 1 and 2, followed by a 24-3 blowout win over the Dolphins last Sunday.
Can the Seahawks keep it rolling against a tougher opponent after facing Bo Nix in his NFL debut, New England’s Jacoby Brissett and Miami backup Skylar Thompson to start the season?
Seattle will need to slow down Detroit’s running game to to pull the upset. The Seahawks defended the run well against the Broncos and Dolphins. They struggled against the Pats, though, and that game went to overtime in large part because New England was able to run the ball 36 times for 185 yards.
This week will be a massive challenge because of not only how well David Montgomery and Jahmyr Gibbs run the ball behind the Lions’ outstanding O-line, but all the injuries in the Seahawks’ front seven.
Seattle will be without four starting DL/LBs: D-linemen Leonard Williams and Byron Murphy II, plus OLBs Uchenna Nwosu and Boye Mafe.
The good news for Seattle is that on the other side of the ball, its passing game looks tough to stop. Geno Smith is completing nearly 75 percent of his passes, and he’s top-10 in the NFL in yards per attempt — No. 9, to be exact — at 7.6 ypa.
The balance of this passing game has also been impressive: receivers D.K. Metcalf, Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Tyler Lockett, as well as RB Zach Charbonnet and TE Noah Fant, are all averaging at least four targets and three receptions per game.
Smith’s accuracy, along with the balance he’s found distributing the ball to five different targets, has given opposing defenses fits.
The matchup between Smith and the Detroit passing defense will likely decide this game. The Lions addressed DB aggressively this offseason. So far, Detroit’s offseason acquisitions in the secondary have paid off. This team held Bucs QB Baker Mayfield under 200 yards passing in Week 2. It also played well against Kyler Murray last Sunday, limiting him to 207 yards passing on 34 attempts while holding Arizona to just 13 points.
With the ‘Hawks at full strength on D — and/or if this game were in Seattle — we might like Smith to outduel Goff and the Lions offense.
In these circumstances, however, it’s difficult to envision the banged up Seahawks front seven stopping the Lions’ run game well enough to win at Ford Field.
Seahawks vs. Lions Best Bets
- Lions -4 (-110 at ESPN BET, bet365)
