The NFL's first regular-season week is here and guess who the biggest underdog in the league is this week?

Yeah, you guessed it: The Miami Dolphins.
The folks in Las Vegas, and the islands that serve as hubs for online gambling websites, have decided your Dolphins have the smallest chance of any NFL team to win this weekend when they travel to Seattle to play the Seahawks.
Miami opened as a 10 1/2-point underdog on most books. They are down to 7 1/2-point underdogs on most of them now -- tied for the biggest point spread in the league.

No shock. East coast to west coast in a stadium that might be the worst to play in as an opposing team. Oh and also because Miami isn't that good.

It's going to be a bloodbath.
 
Until they learn how to tackle, cover receivers and run the ball, I'd take the over at 7.5.
 
I'm surprised the line dropped from 10.5 to 7.5 actually... Seattle will easily cover 10.5.

7.5 is a pretty good bet for Seattle - with the caveat that opening weeks are very hard to predict (as far as I can tell - Awsi?).
 
Our team hasn't proven anything, let's go out and fight.

I have faith. Shock the world with our new super fast no huddle "O". Up and down the field we go.

Bingo. Someone's living in a fantasy land to think the Fins are going to put up 40+ pts in Seattle. They haven't allowed 40+, home or away, since Carroll's first year in 2010.

I have a lot of faith but I don't even think we'll score 21 to be honest. With no running game their pass rush will be coming hard all day. You might be right about one thing though. Our defense is very capable of allowing 38 points up there.

Ozzy rules!!
