The New York Jets host the Miami Heat in a Week 12 clash at the MetLife Stadium, although it may be a rude Black Friday for them.

The Jets vs. Dolphins Week 12 matchup features two teams on different trajectories. The Dolphins are rolling with a 7-3 record this NFL season, while the Jets are struggling with a 4-6 card.

Unless Jets coach Robert Saleh has a huge game plan in store when the game kicks off at 3:00 p.m. ET, the Dolphins should snag their 8th win for the 2023-24 NFL season.

Jets vs. Dolphins Week 12 Odds

The Dolphins are 10-point favorites to prevail over the Dolphins on Black Friday. The Moneyline for this matchup is -480 for Miami and +360 for New York per BetMGM via USA Today.

The Jets will have their work cut out for them, especially since Saleh has yet to figure out their quarterbacking needs. Tim Boyle will start in this Week 12 offering with Zach Wilson getting demoted to third-string QB.

Regardless, the Dolphins cannot take the Jets lightly. Miami needs to make sure its offense runs smoothly, especially since the Jets are expected to emphasize to make up for their questionable offensives.

Jets vs. Dolphins Week 12 Preview

It will be a curious game for the Jets, especially with Tim Boyle in focus. The decision to go with the 29-year-old may be surprising, but Jets coach Robert Saleh is left with few options.

With the Zach Wilson experiment not working, Boyle is given a chance. And should he falter, Saleh can always turn to another QB in NFL veteran Trevor Siemian.

The Jets are coming off a devastating loss to the Buffalo Bills, 32-6, on Sunday, November 19, ESPN reported. Unless Saleh and the Jets find a way to get back on the winning track, the NFL playoffs are slowly slipping away from their hands.

For the Dolphins, Miami is coming off a 20-13 win over the Las Vegas Raiders, also on Sunday. Aside from Tagovailoa, WR Tyreek Hill was not listed in the latest injury report, suggesting he is good to go against the Jets, per SI.com.

Further, Miami will have an intact defense against the Jets. This spells more trouble for New York, who is possibly staring at another loss.

Boyle and possibly Siemian will have to find a way to get the Jets on track. Both are also trying to buy Aaron Rodgers some time, with speculations that the four-time NFL MVP may make an improbable return by mid-December.

But should the Jets be eliminated from playoff contention, it makes no sense for Rodgers to rush himself back - a move that could be detrimental to his Achilles injury.

Jets vs. Dolphins Week 12 Pick

With Tagovailoa and Hill in tow, this looms as a sure win for the Dolphins. It will be up to the Jets' defense to foil Miami's offensive plays, particularly checking Tagovailoa.

New York will turn to its defense unless Boyle or Siemian can weave magic. In all, the odds are stacked against the Jets in this one.
