Miami Dolphins at Los Angeles Rams: Predictions, picks and odds for NFL Week 10 game

November 6, 2024

The Los Angeles Rams will get a visit from their old pal Jalen Ramsey this weekend as the Miami Dolphins travel to SoFi Stadium for Monday Night Football.

After a slow start to the season, the Rams have put together a solid streak of victories to push themselves to .500. The returns of star receivers Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua could not have come at a better time too. With contenders like the Eagles, Bills, and 49ers all coming up within their next six games.

Although quarterback Tua Tagovailoa has returned for the Miami Dolphins, the team’s offense has not recaptured that explosiveness that made them so dangerous in 2023. Tyreek Hill has not looked like the elite receiver that put the NFL at bay the last decade. The only player who has been performing has been running back De’Von Achane, and clearly that hasn’t been enough. The Dolphins sit at 2-6, only a half-game ahead of last-place New England in the AFC East. If they want to make a late-season playoff push, the Dolphins need to start winning immediately.

Here are our experts’ predictions for this Week 10 showdown.

Lorenzo Reyes: Rams 24, Dolphins 20

Miami played probably its most complete game last week, as its season is in danger of slipping away. Still, turnovers, senseless penalties and lack of focus — problems that have plagued the team all year long — hindered their shot at a victory against the Bills. The Rams, meanwhile, are seemingly improving with each week.

Tyler Dragon: Rams 24, Dolphins 22

Tua Tagovailoa’s return hasn’t resulted in wins as Miami’s lost three straight games. The Rams are getting healthy at the right time. Los Angeles is an entirely different team when Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua are both active.

Richard Morin: Dolphins 30, Rams 20

Miami very quietly took the Bills, one of the best teams in the league, down to the wire in Tua Tagovailoa’s return. The Dolphins are much better than their 2-6 record suggests, and I think their offense lights it up Monday night.

Jordan Mendoza: Rams 25, Dolphins 21

The Rams are suddenly alive. The weapons around Matthew Stafford have stepped up big and get past a Miami team that still can’t figure out a rhythm.
