Feel free to swipe left on Brock Osweiler at Lambeau. I mean, when you’re staring at Aaron Rodgers’ profile, it’s hard to linger too long on Osweiler’s bio. Sorry, dating apps are seeping into your friendly writer’s musings. The Dolphins own a winning record at 5-4, yet have been outscored by 38 points. They have really struggled on the road the last three times out. Granted, the competition has been pretty stout: Texans (currently 6-3), Bengals (5-3) and Patriots (7-2). But the Fins lost those three games by a combined score of 107-47 -- a robust average deficit of 20 points per game. Miami’s defense could allow the team to hang around, given the Packers’ poor play calling as of late. Key will be how Osweiler performs on third downs, with the Dolphins converting just 39.4 percent to first downs this season. Field goals won’t win the day in Green Bay, where the Packers have yet to lose this season.

This is a tough spot for the Dolphins. They face a good team coming home after two road losses. Oh, that team also has Aaron Rodgers. But I think the Dolphins will hang around here, even with Brock Osweiler at quarterback. The Packers win, but it’s close.
