💰 Dolphins vs. Steelers weather: Betting impact for MNF
The biggest narrative heading into Monday Night Football tonight isn't the Dolphins' four-game win streak or the Steelers' late-season playoff push - it's all about the weather.
As our NFL expert Sean Tomlinson explained ahead of kickoff tonight, Miami has lost five straight cold-weather games with Tua Tagovailoa at quarterback, posting a 1-4 record against the spread when the temperature is below 40 degrees. He'll have to face his fears tonight with a forecast of 16 degrees at kickoff and a low of 12 degrees by the fourth quarter.
Here's how I'd consider the weather when betting on Dolphins vs. Steelers:
- Fade these passing attacks. Much has been made of Tagovailoa's struggles in cold weather, but they're pretty hard to ignore - he's never won when the temperature is as low as it'll be tonight, and this entire offense has struggled in such conditions. Similarly, Aaron Rodgers has clearly lost a step at age 42 and could be thrown off his rhythm if he hits the rock-hard turf too many times tonight. I'd be looking to bet Under for both QBs.
- Can De'Von Achane stay hot in the cold? The Dolphins' star running back has been on a tear during Miami's four-game win streak, averaging 157.3 total yards with four touchdowns despite missing two-thirds of last week with an injury. He should be good to go tonight and see a heavy workload in frigid conditions, which is why he's featured prominently in our Dolphins vs. Steelers prediction for Monday Night Football.
- Bank on RBs, TEs to shine tonight. When the weather outside is frightful, coaches take delight in funneling the rock to their most reliable weapons. Both of these teams rely heavily on their running backs and/or tight ends to move the ball down the field, which is one reason why we're targeting those positions with our anytime touchdown scorer predictions tonight for this MNF clash.
