The Miami Dolphins are heavy betting favorites against the Pittsburgh Steelers Sunday night in Week 7. Miami is expected to rebound from a three-game losing streak now that Tua Tagovailoa is on track to return from a concussion.
When Tagovailoa was healthy for the first three games of the season, the Dolphins went undefeated with one of the NFL’s top offenses. The Steelers have had a more difficult time than most teams scoring points, no matter their quarterback. Mitch Trubisky replaced an injured Kenny Pickett in the team’s Week 6 upset over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Trubisky is likely to get his starting job back, for the moment, with the rookie in concussion protocol.
Let’s take a look at some key statistics and information about this matchup.
