Miami Dolphins vs. New England Patriots Week 9 NFL Picks: In a statement game out of the AFC East the New England Patriots will host the Miami Dolphins today at 1 PM ET. The last time Miami was in New England they unveiled the Wildcat formation in a 38-13 drumming of New England that shook up the NFL. Miami (3-4) is coming off a lucky upset win over the Jets 30-25 as +3.5 away underdogs. New England (5-2) beat up another hapless team for the 2nd week in a row when they trounced Tampa Bay 35-7 in Europe as -15.5 favorites.

Analysis: Don’t expect Bill Bellichick to be caught off-guard again by the Wildcat in this game. The NFL has shown that there are ways to beat Miami vaunted Wildcat by blitzing CB’s so expect the Patriots to exploit that. New England has the edge on offense (#5-#11) with Tom Brady (2032 yds, 15-4 ratio, 99.9) and their spread attack against Miami’s power-running based Wildcat led by QB Chad Henne (771 yds, 4-3 ratio, 78.4). Miami’s running game led by Ronnie Brown (584 yds, 4.3, 7 td) and Ricky Williams (608 yds, 5.4, 6 td) should have some success against New England’ run defense allowing 4.5 yards per carry and is missing DT Ty Warren. Miami’s defense is tough against the run but is banged up and overall they are at a major disadvantage against New England (#3-#26). New England's explosive WR's Randy Moss and Wes Welker should have a big game against Miami inexperienced DB's. Miami has the much better special teams (#2-#25). The Miami Dolphins vs. New England Patriots Week 9 NFL Picks NFL Odds Total is at 46.5 points.
