This week's line indicates an extreme rushing game script for the Dolphins, who are a massive favorite by 9.5 points.Given their underlying traits and game dynamics, the Dolphins are expected by the predictive model to run just 64.0 plays on offense in this game: the 10th-lowest number among all teams this week.The Miami Dolphins have run the 5th-fewest plays in the NFL this year, totaling a measly 54.2 plays per game.Opposing quarterbacks teams have been afraid to rely on the passing game too much against the New York Jets, totaling the 5th-fewest attempts in the NFL (just 33.2 per game) this year.This year, the stout Jets defense has surrendered the 2nd-least adjusted yards-per-target in football to opposing offenses: a meager 6.6 yards.
