The Arizona Republic: Patriots 30, Dolphins 20
Jeremy Cluff writes: "The Dolphins got their first win of the season in NFL Week 7. Can they turn it into a win streak in NFL Week 8? Don't count on it. Drake Maye and Patriots are coming off a mini-bye and will be ready for this game."
Bookies.com: Bet the over in Dolphins vs Patriots game
Bill Speros writes: "The Patriots come off the mini-bye and a Thursday night loss at Chicago. Hard Rock Stadium often serves as a house of horrors for the Patriots, even more fitting this Halloween weekend. The Dolphins nabbed their first victory of the season Sunday, over the Jets (of course). Drake Maye (his end zone pick notwithstanding) played well at Chicago, but the Patriots defense couldn't stop a nosebleed. It should fare better and get some bodies back given the 10-day lay off. Expect the Patriots to win here, but this number is a stretch given their history in Miami. The over is the play here given the weaknesses of both teams."

Tyler Sullivan writes: "New England is coming off its mini-bye after playing last Thursday, so it'll have a rest advantage over the Dolphins. That, in part, is why they are a 7.5-point road favorite for this game, despite Miami coming off of its first win of the season. The Patriots are 3-3-1 ATS this season, which includes a 1-2-1 record on the road. This will be the first time this season that they are a road favorite. As for the Dolphins, they are 1-1 ATS as a home underdog. The total sits at 44.5 and the Over is 7-6 combined between these two teams."
