BETWEEN THE LINES
THREE REASONS TO LIKE THE DOLPHINS (+61/2) OVER THE CHARGERS
The Dolphins’ offense found rhythm two weeks ago with Ronnie Brown against the Patriots and posted a 38-13 win.
The Chargers’ defense has allowed an average of 28 points per game.
Both teams should try to run the ball, which will shorten the game and lessen the chances of a blowout.
THREE REASONS TO LIKE THE JAGUARS (-4) OVER THE STEELERS
The Steelers are missing their starting and backup running backs and an offensive lineman to injury. Also, quarterback Ben Roethlisberger is not 100 percent healthy.
The Jaguars have won their last two games, and the running game has shown life. They gained nearly 400 yards combined on the ground in those games.
Jacksonville beat Pittsburgh twice last season.
LAST WEEK: 2-0
SEASON: 5-3
