Ryan Tannehill has been ruled out until the playoffs and the (8-5) Dolphins playoff hopes take a dive with it.  Tannehill was having his best statistical season under new HC Adam Gase.  He was averaging 6.7 NYPP while completing 67% of his passes.   In steps 32-year-old journeyman Matt Moore who has started 25 games in his career as he makes his first start in 5 years.  Moore is a 2.0 – 2.5 point drop off from Tanny, as he is not quite the runner or passer Tannehill has been this season.  The biggest strength of the Dolphins all season has been the rushing attack and that happens to also be the strength of the Jets defensive unit, who rank 2nd in rushing success rate allowed and #1 in run stuffing plays.  While Matt Forte is questionable with a torn meniscus in his knee, backup Bilal Powell has been the more dynamic back all year, averaging 5.8 yards per rush to Forte’s 3.7 YPC.  Look for the Jets to run the ball regardless who is behind young Bryce Petty, as the Dolphins have given up 4.8 yards per rush this season.  The advanced stats model sees value on the home dog for the Saturday game, so Jets (+2.5) is a Strong Opinion.
