The Dolphins have been running the ball well of late, but De'Von Achane’s rib injury is concerning and his practice reps are in question. If I’m pivoting on an offense that has scored over 100 points across its last four wins, I’m taking the first read in the passing game at a fair +200. Waddle has six touchdowns this season and has gone more than one game without a score only once. He even saw a 21-yard rushing attempt last week and could take on more ground work if Achane sits, especially in a cold-weather game where moving the ball could be tougher. He’s their second-best weapon and could become the focal point if Achane is out.

Achane has powered this Miami attack during this streak, with the Dolphins handing off at the highest rate in the league the past three games. That’s keep gains short and the clock ticking, translating into a healthy chunk of TOP for the Fins. The Dolphins will go run-heavy again on Monday, especially if conditions stink, as to keep the heat from QB Tua Tagovailoa. Pittsburgh brings blitz at a Top 5 rate and is among the leaders in sacks and QB hits. The Steelers attack has lacked explosive plays with Aaron Rodgers under center. He enters Week 15 with the second lowest intended air yards per attempt among qualified QBs and the offense has the sixth fewest completions of 20 yards or more – just behind the Dolphins.

The predictive model expects the Dolphins to be the 10th-least pass-heavy offense in the NFL (context-neutralized) at the moment with a 58.8% pass rate..

The Dolphins have run the 3rd-fewest plays in the NFL this year, totaling a measly 52.4 plays per game.. As it relates to pass-blocking (and the impact it has on all passing game metrics), the offensive line of the Dolphins grades out as the worst in football this year.. The Pittsburgh Steelers have intercepted 0.83 passes per game this year, ranking as the 10th-best defense in the league by this statistic.
