Betting Ravens-Dolphins: Miami won't have answer for Lamar, Henry - ESPN

Week 9 of the NFL season kicks off with the Baltimore Ravens visiting the Miami Dolphins on «Thursday Night Football.»

Lamar Jackson makes his return for the Ravens, who are just 2-5 but are the odds-on favorite to win the AFC North (-110) following last week's victory.

It's a different story for the Dolphins, who are 2-6 but 40-1 to reach the playoffs, even after blowing out the Falcons in Atlanta last week.

The Ravens are right around a touchdown favorite in Miami.

Matt Bowen, Pamela Maldonado and Eric Moody offer their picks, prop plays and analysis to help you bet the game.

Field Yates previews Lamar Jackson's expected return to the field and what it means from a fantasy perspective.

Lamar Jackson to go OVER 36.5 rushing yards (-115)

Bowen: A healthy Jackson will create conflict for the Miami defense on both designed carries and second-reaction scramble attempts.

Derrick Henry to record 90+ rushing yards (-120)

Maldonado: Miami has allowed 120 or more rushing yards in every game at home, with lead backs Rhamondre Stevenson (54 yards on 11 carries; Patriots 122 yards), Breece Hall (81 on 14 carries; Jets 197) and Kimani Vidal (124 on 18 carries; Chargers 140) combining to average 6 yards per carry.
