By Rhett Zone ยท Published 2026-11-14 19:46 UTC _Drafted with AI from our own data and checked by an editor._ The [Miami Dolphins](https://profootballnewshub.com/nfl/teams/miami-dolphins) try to snap a two-game slide against an [Indianapolis Colts](https://profootballnewshub.com/nfl/teams/indianapolis-colts) team buried in a five-game skid of its own. ## Game details - When | Sunday, November 15, 2026 at 1:00 PM ET - Where | Lucas Oil Stadium - TV | CBS - Line | Indianapolis Colts -4 | O/U 37.5 (market view) - Miami Dolphins record | 1-7 - Indianapolis Colts record | 2-7 ## Overview Miami Dolphins sit at 1-7 and have dropped two straight, falling 9-19 to the Detroit Lions in Week 9 and 19-24 to the New England Patriots in Week 8, with their lone recent win a 28-25 decision over the New York Jets in Week 7. Before that stretch they lost 24-31 to the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 5. Miami has been outscored 200-126 on the season, and the offense has had trouble finding consistency week to week. Indianapolis Colts come in at 2-7 on a five-game losing streak, falling 23-27 to the Dallas Cowboys in Week 9, 7-42 to the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 8, 10-16 to the Minnesota Vikings in Week 7, 20-26 to the Tennessee Titans in Week 6 and 22-34 to the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 5. The Colts have been outscored 249-184 this season. The betting market has Indianapolis favored by 4.0 points with a total of 37.5, which lines up with two struggling offenses and suggests oddsmakers see this as close to a coin flip despite the Colts' longer losing streak. Miami's defense has produced some recent playmaking, and if that unit travels well, this is a game Miami can hang in. ## Key players [Kyle McCord](https://profootballnewshub.com/nfl/players/kyle-mccord) is set to make his first career start at quarterback, a significant test for a Miami offense that needs stability behind center. [Ollie Gordon II](https://profootballnewshub.com/nfl/players/ollie-gordon-ii) had 64 scrimmage yards last week and is chasing his seventh straight game with 55-plus scrimmage yards, plus his third in a row on the road with 100-plus scrimmage yards and a rushing touchdown. [Caleb Douglas](https://profootballnewshub.com/nfl/players/caleb-douglas), a rookie, led the team with a career-high six catches for 70 yards in Week 9 and has topped 70 receiving yards in two of his last three games, posting 15.6 yards per reception on the season. [Malik Washington](https://profootballnewshub.com/nfl/players/malik-washington) has posted 45-plus scrimmage yards in three of his last four road games and needs 40 scrimmage yards to set a new career high of 427 for 2025. [Jordyn Brooks](https://profootballnewshub.com/nfl/players/jordyn-brooks) led Miami with 12 tackles and a tackle for loss in Week 9 and is going for his seventh straight game with eight or more tackles. ## Keys to the game Miami has to protect Kyle McCord in his first career start, especially with center [Aaron Brewer](https://profootballnewshub.com/nfl/players/aaron-brewer) out with a concussion. The passing attack needs Caleb Douglas and Malik Washington to carry the load with [Chris Bell](https://profootballnewshub.com/nfl/players/chris-bell) doubtful and [Jared Wayne](https://profootballnewshub.com/nfl/players/jared-wayne) out at receiver. The defense has to keep generating the kind of disruption it flashed last week, with [Josh Uche](https://profootballnewshub.com/nfl/players/josh-uche) chasing a third straight game with a sack and [Chris Johnson](https://profootballnewshub.com/nfl/players/chris-johnson) coming off his first career interception. ## Fantasy angles Ollie Gordon II projects for 10.5 DraftKings points and is the clear lean for Miami's backfield given his recent scrimmage-yard streak. Caleb Douglas projects for 8.5 points and is in the starting mix after back-to-back strong outings, including his career-high six-catch, 70-yard game. Malik Washington checks in at 7.0 projected points and is a solid complementary option as he closes in on a new career high for scrimmage yards. [Malik Willis](https://profootballnewshub.com/nfl/players/malik-willis) carries a 12.5-point projection, the highest of any Miami player listed, making him worth a speculative look in deeper fantasy formats. [Zane Gonzalez](https://profootballnewshub.com/nfl/players/zane-gonzalez) projects for 7.0 points and is a streaming option in a game with a 37.5 total. ## Prediction The market lists this one at Indianapolis Colts 21, Miami Dolphins 17, with Indianapolis favored by 4.0 on home turf. That lines up with a game between two losing teams where the Colts' better scoring differential and a struggling-but-not-broken offense gives them a slight edge, while Miami's playmakers on both sides of the ball keep it inside a touchdown. ## Injury report - Player | Pos | Status - Aaron Brewer | C | Out - Chris Bell | WR | Doubtful - Darrell Baker Jr. | CB | Questionable - Jared Wayne | WR | Out - Tucker Addington | LS | Limited in practice (no game status yet) ## Depth chart ### Offense - Pos | Miami Dolphins - QB | Kyle McCord - RB | Ollie Gordon II - FB | DJ Herman - WR | Malik Washington, Caleb Douglas, Chris Bell - TE | Greg Dulcich - LT | Patrick Paul - LG | Kadyn Proctor - C | Aaron Brewer - RG | Jonah Savaiinaea - RT | Austin Jackson ### Defense - Pos | Miami Dolphins - LDE | Chop Robinson - LDT | Keith Cooper Jr. - RDT | Zeek Biggers - RDE | Josh Uche - WLB | Jordyn Brooks - MLB | Jacob Rodriguez - SLB | Willie Gay Jr. - LCB | Jason Marshall Jr. - RCB | JuJu Brents - NB | Chris Johnson - SS | Dante Trader Jr. - FS | Michael Taaffe ## Recent results - Team | Last games - Miami Dolphins | Wk9 L 9-19 vs Detroit Lions, Wk8 L 19-24 vs New England Patriots, Wk7 W 28-25 vs New York Jets [**Game page**](https://profootballnewshub.com/nfl/game/143) *Written by Rhett Zone, an AI analyst, from News Hub Fantasy data (schedule, scores, box scores, injuries and depth charts).
