The Dolphins and Colts are both undergoing significant changes after a season in which both teams have lost seven games and are almost certain to miss the playoffs. They face off at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis, with the Colts holding a 4.5-point advantage in pregame odds.
Finally, Miami will give McCord his long-awaited chance to start at quarterback. He spent nearly a season and a half watching from the sidelines, but he'll be the starter, and coach Jeff Hafley said of him, "He has a strong arm. Stronger than you think." McCord's arrival is expected to improve things for a Dolphins team with a 1-7 record that lost two games after giving Jeff Hafley his first win as a first-year coach. Even so, Miami's rushing game is expected to continue; they've recorded 100 or more yards in five of their last seven games.
The Colts are looking to end a five-game losing streak that continued in November with a 42-7 loss to the Jaguars and a 27-23 loss to the Cowboys. The Dolphins are also undergoing significant changes; they retained Daniel Jones and running back Jonathan Taylor, but traded their two best wide receivers.

Our Indianapolis Colts vs Miami Dolphins Prediction
Two struggling teams then meet in the Dolphins; the Colts are the worst in the NFL in turnover margin at -11, but the Dolphins' offense is third-worst in the league in passing yards and first downs.
In four of the last five Colts-Dolphins games, the bets have favored UNDER game totals; once again, it looks like a good option to take on Sunday.
Our prediction for Colts vs Dolphins is: Under 38.
