NFL Best Bets & Odds: Week 16 Monday Night Football
Miami Dolphins vs. New Orleans Saints
Date: Monday, Dec. 27, 2021
Time: 8:15 p.m. EST
Venue: Caesars Superdome — New Orleans, La.
Coverage: ABC/ESPN
The Dolphins have turned their season around by winning six games in a row. However, they have not faced anyone good, with their wins coming against the Jets twice, Giants, Texans, Panthers and Ravens. This is a prove-it game for the Dolphins, especially Tua Tagovailoa.
The Saints have done well to keep their heads above water this season and put themselves in a position to make the playoffs. They are coming off one of the most impressive defensive performances of the season, as they shut out the Buccaneers. Their defense is not the worry tonight. Rather, the fact that they will be giving Ian Book his first NFL start is of some concern. Reportedly the Saints have reached out to Philip Rivers and Drew Brees in the last few weeks, and they may raise their offer depending on what happens tonight.
