Ex-Fins punter Thomas Morestead is averaging a solid 49.2 gross yards per punt and 42.2 net yards, good for 8th and 13th in the league. Fins punter Jake Bailey is 27th and 17th at 45.5 and 41.8. Big Advantage Jets. Intangibles. The Jets play the spoiler role. They’d love nothing better than to knock off their twice-a-year rivals, who are fighting for playoff supremacy. For the Fins, they’re at a bit of a crossroads. They’ve lost their invincibility at home. They’re banged up. Sure, they’re more than likely playoff-bound and have something to play for, but they could be mentally down without their on-the-field leader in Tyreek Hill. Advantage Even. The Fins had been cruising along at 9-3 dominating weaker opponents one by one, especially at home. That invincibility is gone now, and what’s left is a lot of unknowns. I tell ya, what worries me most are the injuries at key positions. At the time of this writing, it is unclear whether Tyreek Hill will play. Ankle injuries are tricky. Rest is one of the best antidotes. If I were Miami, I would sit Hill and get him as healthy as possible for the brutal Cowboys, Ravens, and Bills finish. I think they can scrape by this week, but it won’t be easy. The oddsmakers know something as well. Before that Monday night loss, the Fins were favored by 13.5 points. That line is now down to 8.5. I’m assuming Hill does not play or is not as effective as he would be at 100%. I think the Fins win but will not cover. Fins win 21-14.
