A pair of AFC East rivals will go head-to-head on Sunday as the Miami Dolphins (5-2) host the New England Patriots (2-5) on CBS and Paramount+.

Meanwhile, the Patriots scored a 29-25 win over the Bills last week as 7.5-point underdogs to end a three-game losing streak in which they were outscored by 73 points.

Week 8 NFL picks for Patriots vs. Dolphins

Before tuning into Sunday's Dolphins vs. Patriots game, you need to see the NFL picks from SportsLine's advanced computer model. The model, which simulates every NFL game 10,000 times, is up well over $7,000 for $100 players on top-rated NFL picks since its inception. The model enters Week 8 of the 2023 NFL season on an incredible 173-122 run on top-rated NFL picks that dates back to the 2017 season. It is also on a 27-14 roll on top-rated NFL picks since Week 7 of last season.

The model also ranked in the top 10 on NFLPickWatch four of the past six years on straight-up NFL picks and beat more than 94% of CBS Sports Football Pick'em players four times during that span. Anyone who has followed it is way up.

For Patriots vs. Dolphins, the model is backing Miami to cover the spread. The Dolphins won 24-17 when these two franchises met in Week 2 and controlled the game throughout, outgaining the Patriots by more than 100 yards.

Now the rivalry shifts to Miami, where the Dolphins have been a different level of dominant. Miami hammered Denver 70-20 as six-point favorites in Week 3, beat the Giants 31-16 as 12.5-point favorites in Week 4 and overcame an early 14-0 deficit to beat the Panthers 42-21 as 14-point favorites in Week 5.

The Dolphins have averaged 47.7 points and 558 yards of offense in their three home games. Meanwhile, the Patriots have only averaged 10.0 points and 290 yards of total offense on the road this season, a big reason why the model has Miami covering in over 50% of simulations. You may be able to stream the game here.
