They thrashed the Jets 34-10 last week and their defence has been on fire. In this winning streak, they&#8217;ve allowed under 18 pts in all 4 games. The only issue could be a ribs issue for starting RB De&#8217;Von Achane but Jaylen Wright showed last week he can handle the load with 107 yards on 24 carries.<\/p>\n<p>The Steelers picked up a massive win last week, beating the Ravens 27-22. So, they just need to keep winning and they&#8217;ll take out the AFC North division. Aaron Rodgers comes off 284 passing yards and a TD pass. He hooked up with DK Metcalf for 7 catches and 148 yards. But they would like more from the running game as they totalled just 34 yards in 17 carries. They have a great matchup against Miami&#8217;s run D as they allow 125 rush yards per game, so that will be a key matchup.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Leg #1 &#8211; Under 42.5 pts<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Both teams are playing well defensively so it&#8217;s expected to be a low scoring grind on Tuesday morning. The Dolphins haven&#8217;t allowed over 20 pts in a month and the Under has saluted in 5 of their last 6 games. Pittsburgh haven&#8217;t been a huge scoring team this year and the Under shows a positive trend. They&#8217;re 4-1 against the Under at home.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Leg #2 &#8211; Miami Dolphins +7.5<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The Dolphins will likely use their running game to control this matchup and keep the margin close throughout the 4 quarters. Pittsburgh haven&#8217;t been overly great at stopping the run either. Miami also comes into this one having covered the line in 4 of their last 6 games and they&#8217;re 4-2 ATS at this venue too.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Leg #3 &#8211; Tua Tagovailoa Under 199.5 Passing Yards<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Tua has fallen under 200 passing yards in 4 straight games and I don&#8217;t see that changing against the Steelers. They prefer to run the ball at the moment as Tua is only averaging around 20 passes per game.<\/p>\n<h3>Same Game Multi<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.betr.com.au\/sports\/American-Football\/108\/United-States-of-America\/NFL\/Miami-Dolphins-@-Pittsburgh-Steelers\/1817732\/All-Markets\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Under 42.5 pts \/ Miami Dolphins +7.5 \/ Tua Tagovailoa Under 199.5 Passing Yards = $0.00<\/a><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3><strong>Value Leg &#8211; D.K. Metcalf Anytime Touchdown Scorer<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Metcalf comes off a season high in targets last week (12) and that&#8217;s a great sign. He also finished with 148 yards, also a season high. It&#8217;s fair to say he&#8217;s due for a TD catch and the volume is definitely there to get the job done.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.betr.com.au\/sports\/American-Football\/108\/United-States-of-America\/NFL\/Miami-Dolphins-@-Pittsburgh-Steelers\/1817732\/All-Markets\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Under 42.5 pts \/ Miami Dolphins +7.5 \/ Tua Tagovailoa Under 199.5 Passing Yards \/ D.K.
