The Dolphins have taken four of the last five in this series, including a 20-12 win in Week 2. Miami has won the last two contests but has not beaten New York three times in a row since 2008-09. The Dolphins have won the last two at home and would have their first three-game home win streak over the Jets since winning four a row from 1994-97 when Dan Marino quarterbacked all four victories.

The Jets lost their second game in a row and fell to 3-5 on the year with a 24-10 loss in Chicago last week. This year, New York is averaging 41.3 points per game in its three wins compared to 13.6 in its five losses.

The Dolphins began the season by winning each of their first three games but have dropped four of their last five with all four losses coming by double digits, including a 42-23 loss in Houston last Thursday. Miami gave up 28 points in the second-half in that loss, and has allowed a league-high 151 second-half points in 2018.

Miami held New York to just 42 rushing yards on 19 attempts in Week 2 but has allowed 100+ in every other game. The Dolphins have allowed 600 yards on the ground in its last three games, yielding 5.9 yards per carry. The Jets are averaging a league-low 2.8 yards per carry in the same span (since Week 6).

Sam Darnold went 14-for-29 and threw for 153 yards last week, his third game with fewer than 200 passing yards and a completion percentage under 50.0 percent on at least 20 attempts. The rest of the NFL combined has three such games (Josh Allen, Josh Rosen, Tyrod Taylor -- one game each).

Last week, Brock Osweiler failed to throw a touchdown pass for the first time this year and completed a season-low 56.8 percent of his passes. He now has a 77.1 passer rating on the road with one TD pass and one interception, but has a 103.1 rating at home with five touchdowns and two interceptions.
