Each week the Phinphanatic staff will bring you their prediction for the upcoming game. This week the Miami Dolphins face off with the Los Angeles Rams.

Sean Denison

With rookie quarterback Jared Goff making his NFL start against the Dolphins ferocious pass rush, look for the California kid to struggle. On offense, look for the Dolphins to implement a balanced game plan of Jay Ajayi and Ryan Tannehill against one of the top defenses in the NFL. Prediction: Dolphins 26 Rams 13

Eric Frosbutter

The Dolphins one game at a time approach is working out so far as they have now won four in a row going into Sunday. The Rams, on the other hand, had been losers of four straight before taking down the Jets last week in an unimpressive 9-6 final. Los Angeles has announced that #1 overall pick Jared Goff will get his first career start this week. While the rookie could be viewed as a Wild Card play, this is a game that the Dolphins should win. The Dolphins understand that they can ill afford to overlook the struggling Rams, and Adam Gase will do whatever it takes to keep the team in focus. Prediction: Dolphins 30 Rams 13

Scott Lascari

While the offensive line will try to adjust to another injury, this time with Branden Albert missing, the Dolphins should continue to show balance on offense. The defense should be successful in stopping Todd Gurley and placing the offense squarely in Jared Goff’s hands. Let’s hope the Dolphins play they way they have recently and not let this game be a trap. Prediction: Dolphins 20 Rams 10

Brian Miller

The Dolphins have 4 game winning streak and are facing a rookie quarterback making his first NFL start. The odds are in Miami’s favor but could this be a trap game? It’s a game Miami should win. Prediction: Dolphins 21 Rams 10
