In Miami’s second, and final, primetime matchup of the season, the Dolphins are traveling to New Orleans to take on the Saints who have a few questions to answer about their future at the quarterback position.

The Saints are in line for a bumpy transition from the Drew Brees era and that may play in Miami’s favor. There is still a lot of conversation as to who will take over from Brees this season. Will it be Jameis Winston or Taysom Hill?

Miami’s hopes for victory, at this point in the game, depending on which quarterback they see in New Orleans. Jameis Winston has a pretty public history of throwing interceptions. If Miami’s ball-hawking secondary can produce a few turnovers and keep Alvin Kamara under control, they can win this game without much of an issue.

If they are playing against Taysom Hill, they will have a tougher time getting the win since they have generally struggled against mobile quarterbacks, something I talked about a bit earlier in relation to the Buffalo and Baltimore matchups.

I honestly think this game is a bit of a toss-up. Because I gave the Dolphins a loss against the Giants, let’s give this one to Miami.

Dolphins record: 10-5
