The weather will be fine for this Friday matchup. So the total can't be this low on a Dolphins game. Miami is the best offensive team in the NFL being first in points at 30.5 a game and in yards at 434.

The previous lowest total on a Miami game this season was 44. Now look at this total. The reason is Tim Boyle being the Jets' newly named starting quarterback.

Before getting to Boyle, it should be pointed out the Jets' defense is wearing down from overwork. New York is giving up an average of 25 points a game during its past three games. If Miami hits its season average, or even close to it, the Jets don't need to put up many points.

Can they do it with Boyle?

Boyle's numbers are terrible. He has thrown 120 NFL passes resulting in three touchdowns and nine interceptions. But there's a key intangible here. The Jets will have a different frame of mind instead of a defeatist attitude they had with Zach Wilson.

Boyle has more experience than Wilson. He prepares extremely hard. He also is in sync with offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett and Aaron Rodgers from his two years spent with those guys as a backup quarterback for the Packers.

The Dolphins rank 23rd in scoring defense allowing 23.8 points a game. Boyle has two excellent weapons in Breece Hall and Garrett Wilson. This is the Jets' season so they'll be less conservative.
