Why the Miami Dolphins are a good bet +5 ½?

The Eagles jumped to a huge lead against the Fins. But, the Dolphins rallied for an impressive 37-31 win. Miami plays with no fear. They know they’re not as good as most of their opponents. So, they play loose. The Dolphins called a punter to field goal kicker TD pass against the Eagles. They won’t have to use trick plays to cover this spread.
