Dolphins vs. Packers Predictions for Thanksgiving Triple-Header, NFL Week 13

Of the entire Week 12 slate, two of the most convincing victories were in Miami with the Dolphins hosting the New England Patriots and in Green Bay with the Packers hosting the San Francisco 49ers.

With these two teams coming into this Thanksgiving matchup on cloud nine, we expect plenty of fireworks. That’s a bit of foreshadowing in terms of the top pick from our Dolphins vs. Packers predictions, but as for a winner, this game truly feels like it could go either way.

For Miami to head up north and steal a victory, they’re going to need to capitalize on Green Bay QB Jordan Love’s mistakes, as he tends to have three or four of them per game that can cost the team. As for Green Bay, they need to play bend-don’t-break defense with how explosive and dynamic the Dolphins can be, leading to quick scores.

 

 

 

Miami Dolphins: Finding A Groove

When Tua went down with his concussion, it was no shock that Miami went into a bit of a tailspin. However, when he returned and they fell to 2-6, the season felt all but over for some fans. Well, it’s safe to say that is no longer the case.

After reeling off three straight wins, a 5-6 record may not be one to write home about, but with how the AFC Wild Card picture looks, the Dolphins are not out of it by any means. Getting to .500 won’t be easy given this matchup that they have on Thanksgiving, but a win in the far different weather would be a massive boost for them.

 

 

 

Green Bay Packers: Building Momentum

The 49ers may not have been at full strength and not as feared as expected heading into the season, but at the end of the day, a 38-10 victory over any NFL team is one that should be built upon. That’s especially true given that Green Bay needed a last-second blocked field goal the week prior against a struggling Chicago Bears squad.

Not only that, but the NFC North is an absolute juggernaut. With the Detroit Lions and Minnesota Vikings also winning on Sunday, the Packers’ 8-3 record is good for just third place in the division. That would easily be winning three other divisions, including two in the NFC, so winning on Thanksgiving is a must to keep pace.

Dolphins vs. Packers Best Bet: Over 47 Points (-110 at BetMGM Sportsbook)

With what we saw from these teams just a few days ago, we expected the total to be higher for this AFC vs. NFC clash. Of course, that’s why the over is the focus of our Dolphins vs. Packers predictions.

If you want to make multiple Dolphins vs. Packers picks, we’d also suggest the same market, but for the first half of the game. Their strong starts are what we expect to lead to a high-scoring game overall, as both teams SHOULD have entered the halftime locker room with 24 points already on the board.

The Dolphins did just that, and ended up scoring the first 31 points of their dominant win over the Patriots. The Pack still scored 17 first half points, but WR Christian Watson dropped a sure touchdown that was an absolute dime thrown by QB Jordan Love. Regardless, Love has looked back to full health since their bye week and has their offense firing on all cylinders.

While they were clear favorites at home given the 49ers issues, that was almost entirely due to QB Brock Purdy being ruled out. Their defense is still considered a strong unit, and Green Bay forced 15 missed tackles - in the first half alone!

It’s also worth noting that Miami’s overall offensive numbers need to be taken with a grain of salt given the Tua injury. They’ve now scored 27+ in three of their last four games, so we’re rolling with over 47 points (-110 at BetMGM Sportsbook) as the best bet from our Dolphins vs. Packers predictions.
