## Overview

The Miami Dolphins (0-5) travel to MetLife Stadium on Sunday, October 25, 2026, for a one o'clock kickoff on CBS against the [New York Jets](https://profootballnewshub.com/nfl/teams/new-york-jets) (2-4). New York is favored by four and a half points with the total set at 39.0, a number that fits two offenses that have had trouble finding the end zone with any consistency.

Miami's skid has been brutal: a 24-31 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 5, a 10-15 defeat to the Minnesota Vikings in Week 4, a 10-24 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 3, a 13-35 blowout loss to the San Francisco 49ers in Week 2, and a 13-27 opening loss to the Las Vegas Raiders. That's five straight losses with just 70 points scored against 132 allowed. New York has stumbled too, losing 19-26 at the New England Patriots last week after beating the Cleveland Browns 17-12 in Week 5, with losses to the Chicago Bears, Detroit Lions and Green Bay Packers mixed in before that.

New York holds the edge here as the home favorite with a better record and a quarterback in [Geno Smith](https://profootballnewshub.com/nfl/players/geno-smith) who's been slinging it efficiently, but Miami's ground game with Ollie Gordon II gives this one a pulse. The Jets' [Breece Hall](https://profootballnewshub.com/nfl/players/breece-hall) carries a questionable tag into Sunday, which only raises the stakes for [Braelon Allen](https://profootballnewshub.com/nfl/players/braelon-allen)'s workload on the other side of the ball.

## Key players

[Malik Willis](https://profootballnewshub.com/nfl/players/malik-willis) passed for 137 yards and a touchdown and ran for 74 yards and a score in Week 5, and he's topped 190 passing yards in three of his past four starts on the road.

Ollie Gordon II led Miami with 88 rush yards and a touchdown in Week 5 and is chasing his fourth straight game with a rushing touchdown after scoring on the ground in last season's meeting with the Jets.

[Malik Washington](https://profootballnewshub.com/nfl/players/malik-washington) posted 61 scrimmage yards in Week 5 and is going for his fourth straight game with 60-plus scrimmage yards.

Geno Smith completed 20 of 30 passes for 252 yards and a touchdown in Week 6 and is chasing his sixth straight game with a touchdown pass.

[Garrett Wilson](https://profootballnewshub.com/nfl/players/garrett-wilson) is chasing his third straight home game with five-plus catches and a receiving touchdown.

## Keys to the game

Keep feeding Ollie Gordon II near the goal line, since he's riding a streak of rushing touchdowns and scored on the ground the last time these two teams met.

Let Malik Willis use his legs the way he did in Week 5, when 74 rushing yards and a score kept Miami's offense moving.

Miami's defense needs more takeaways like the ones it got in Week 5, when Chop Robinson and Josh Uche each came up with fumble recoveries, to slow down Geno Smith's touchdown-pass streak.

## Fantasy angles

Malik Willis is a start for anyone who can stomach his volatility, projected for 12.5 DraftKings points with his legs as the floor-raiser.

Ollie Gordon II is a clear start at 10.5 projected points as Miami's goal-line back chasing another rushing score.

Malik Washington is a fine flex look at 8.5 projected points given his streak of four straight games with 60-plus scrimmage yards.

[Caleb Douglas](https://profootballnewshub.com/nfl/players/caleb-douglas), projected for 6.5 points, belongs on benches outside the deepest formats this week.

[De'Von Achane](https://profootballnewshub.com/nfl/players/de-von-achane), also projected at 6.5 points, is a situational piece at best behind Gordon's workload.

## Prediction

The market lists this one at New York Jets 22, Miami Dolphins 17. That number reflects a Jets offense getting hot throws from Geno Smith against a Dolphins team still hunting its first win, with Miami's ground game behind Ollie Gordon II keeping it from turning into a blowout.
