Analysis: The Dolphins are on a three-game winning streak and are inching closer to getting back to .500. Miami's defense has forced seven turnovers during that win streak, and the Jets have forced just two turnovers this season. Miami can win with that formula with De'Von Achane, who averaged 142.7 rushing yards per game in that streak.

Prediction: Dolphins 24, Jets 17

Analysis: The Dolphins are somehow still alive in the playoff chase, while the Jets have won three of their last five games. The Dolphins haven't played well in the cold and this could be one of those games. The Jets have played better on defense lately and the offense has shown some signs of life. The defense will keep it close as they win it.

Prediction: Jets 24, Dolphins 20

Miami Dolphins On SI

Analysis: Somehow we get the feeling that a lot is going to be made of Tua Tagovailoa's record as a starting quarterback in cold-weather games, which we've discussed before as being just silly because won-loss isn't a stat that's only on the QB, for one, and also because this disregards other factors, such as quality of opponent. The bottom line here is that we have two teams that were 0-3 when they faced off in Week 4 but have improved since then. But, just as was the case back in late September, the Dolphins remain a better team. But it wasn't easy then and it shouldn't be easy this time, either.
