NFL Week 6 Early Odds, Picks & Predictions: Vikings vs. Dolphins (2022)

Last week, I suggested picking up the Chargers at -125 for Week 5. They’ve increased their odds to -135 going up against the Cleveland Browns on the road.

There’s also plenty of value a week in advance. If you can do the proper research and break down how each game on Sunday will go, you can find some excellent lines heading into Week 6. Let’s take a look at a game I’m betting early: Vikings vs. Dolphins.

NFL Week 6 Early Odds, Picks & Predictions: Vikings vs. Dolphins

Minnesota Vikings vs. Miami Dolphins

I hate to be that guy. But what if Tua Tagovailoa is back under center for the Dolphins in Week 6? What if Teddy Bridgewater has a ton of success against the Jets in Week 5?

There are multiple ways the Dolphins could start gaining traction against the Minnesota Vikings in Week 6.

Minnesota is hot-and-cold, and they’ll take on the Chicago Bears at home this week. That should be a win. But it’s expected. What won’t be expected is Bridgewater having success or Tagovailoa coming back.

The Dolphins still have Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle and can play with a veteran quarterback with plenty of starts under his belt. Bridgewater still thinks he’s a reliable quarterback, and if we’ve learned anything from Geno Smith, Bridgewater could still have it in him.

If Bridgewater looks good or Tagovailoa is back, the Dolphins will be much heavier favorites than -120 at home.

Bet: Dolphins ML (-120)
