MIAMI GARDENS — It’s Year 2 for South Florida Sun Sentinel Dolphins columnist Chris Perkins and Dolphins writer David Furones picking prop bets, which they’ll do for all 17 regular-season games.
Before each game, Furones and Perkins will select a “Best Bet” and a “Longshot.” The “Best Bet” selection is a near 50-50 proposition while the “Longshot” is at least +300 or a 3-to-1 probability.

They don’t place dollar amounts on their bets, but you’re welcome to wager as much as you can afford.
Furones is 9-7 on his “Best Bets” while Perk is 3-13. On the “Longshot,” Furones is 5-11 and Perk has slumped to 3-13.
Perkins and Furones use the Hard Rock Bet app for odds. Be sure to check the Sun Sentinel predictions for Sunday’s overall outlook.
Perk’s Best Bet: Rhamondre Stevenson anytime TD (-110)
The Miami Dolphins‘ run defense remains feast or famine. And while TreVeyon Henderson is the Patriots’ leader in yards and touchdowns, I could see Stevenson crossing the goal line once on Sunday. Besides, I could use some good fortune here.

Furones’ Best Bet: TreVeyon Henderson over 57.5 rushing yards (-115)
The rookie has been excellent from a yards-per-carry standpoint. It’s not a big number because he splits the workload with Stevenson. I wonder about Dolphins tackling as they get deeper in a cold-weather game after having to bring down the two all evening.
Furones lost his Best Bet last week of running back De’Von Achane rushing for 74.5 yards or fewer while Perk lost his Best Bet of tight end Darren Waller achieving 24.5 or more yards receiving.
Perk’s Longshot: Rasul Douglas over 0.5 INT (+800)
Douglas, Miami’s top cornerback, is the team leader in interceptions (two) so it makes sense that he could get one on Patriots quarterback Drake Maye. The Dolphins have been more adept at forcing turnovers in the second half of the season and Douglas has had a good year, so he gets the nod here. By the way, a good pass rush would likely help him get an interception.

Furones’ Longshot: Julian Hill anytime TD (+700)
Hey, what better time than now for Hill to score his first career touchdown? Darren Waller is out, De’Von Achane is doubtful, Jaylen Waddle questionable, and after Greg Dulcich just caught one from Quinn Ewers last game. Maybe this is Hill’s chance slipping away off play action near the goal line.
Perk lost his Longshot last week of a Waller anytime TD while Furones lost his Longshot of tight end Cade Otton having an anytime TD.
