The Miami Dolphins stayed out west this week, choosing to remain in California between their Week 13 game at the San Francisco 49ers and their Week 14 Sunday Night Football appearance against the Los Angeles Chargers. The game could have major implications on the AFC playoff picture, where the Dolphins are currently the sixth seed while the Chargers are ninth in the conference standings, two spots outside the playoffs. A win almost assures Miami a playoff berth this season while a win for the Chargers would move them above .500 on the season and makes them more likely than not to make it to the postseason.
This game will feature the 2020 fifth-overall pick, the Dolphins’ Tua Tagovailoa, and the sixth-pick that year, Los Angeles’ Justin Herbert. The two quarterbacks will be forever linked by that draft, and now they face off for the second time in their careers. As rookies in 2020, the Dolphins beat the Chargers in Miami 29-21, with Tagovailoa throwing for 169 yards and two touchdowns on 15-for-25 passing and Herbert threw for 187 yards, two touchdowns, and an interception on 20-for-32 passing; Herbert also ran for a score.
According to DraftKings Sportsbook, this game is expected to be fairly close. The Dolphins are favored by 3.5 points as of Wednesday. The point total is set at 51.5 points. On the moneyline, the Dolphins are -180 to win, while the Chargers are +155.
