US EditionTurnover-Plagued Tagovailoa and Dolphins Are Looking to End 3-Game Skid in Visit to Falcons
The Dolphins, with the NFL's worst run defense allowing 159.3 yards per game, face a Falcons rushing attack led by Bijan Robinson, who averages 5.4 yards per carry.
- On Oct. 26, the Miami Dolphins visit the Atlanta Falcons at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in a Week 8 preview, kickoff 1 p.m. on CBS.
- Miami's defense has been overwhelmed this year, allowing 159.3 rushing yards per game, the NFL's worst, while Darren Waller was placed on injured reserve and Tua Tagovailoa faces scrutiny after consecutive three-interception games.
- Robinson's 5.4 yards per carry and Atlanta's fourth-ranked rushing offense, featuring Tyler Allgeier, make the Falcons' ground attack a major threat to Miami.
- Bookmakers favor Atlanta by 7 1/2, reflecting expectations for a Falcons win, and a loss would likely leave Miami Dolphins potentially falling to 1-7 with analysts warning it could be Mike McDaniel's last stand.
- The Falcons' upcoming stretch with four of their next five games on the road and 15 sacks through six games, their most since 2012, makes this period pivotal for both teams.
