2019 NFL picks, score predictions for Week 10
Miami Dolphins (1-7) at Indianapolis Colts (5-3)
Sunday, November 10, 4:05PM ET
Can you believe it? The Miami Dolphins finally won a game, albeit against a hapless New York Jets team. It wasn’t really an impressive effort, but it proves they weren’t entirely intent on going 0-16 this season. Don’t get used to seeing them in the winner’s circle on Sundays, though.
That certainly won’t be the case against the Indianapolis Colts. Despite their Week 9 loss, the Colts have been among the best and most well-rounded teams in the NFL this season. Even without Jacoby Brissett under center, they nearly pulled off the win against the surging Pittsburgh Steelers. Even if Brian Hoyer is forced to start against the Dolphins, he’ll still get the win.
Miami sports one of the NFL’s easiest defenses to run circles around. With a competent quarterback, plenty of playmakers out wide and an excellent running back in Marlon Mack, the Colts should have no trouble moving the ball easily in this one. Combine that with their ideal defensive matchup against Ryan Fitzpatrick, and they seem destined for the W.
The Dolphins avoided a historically pathetic season by putting a notch in the win column. If they think they’ll make it two in a row against Indianapolis, they’re downright wrong. No matter who’s starting for the Colts, they’ll improve to 6-3 in Week 10.
Prediction: Colts win 26-10
