The Dolphins travel to Allegiant Stadium on Sunday, September 13 for the late window. FOX has the 4:25 PM ET kickoff, one of four games in that slot. Both sides begin the <a href=\"\/us\/nfl\/\">2026 NFL season<\/a> here. Squawka Signal&#8217;s current read, and where the value sits, appears in the block directly below. Similarly, Signal rates <a href=\"\/us\/nfl\/picks\/\">every Week 1 fixture<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Las Vegas scored 241 points in 2025, fewer than any other team in the league. Miami managed 347, which was hardly prolific either.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Raiders also allowed 64 sacks, the most of any side playing this weekend. Consequently their line is the first thing to look at.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!-- SQ_NFL_SIG_START -->\n\n<style>\n.sq-nsig{position:relative;overflow:hidden;border-radius:18px;margin:28px

De&#8217;Von Achane ran for 1,350 of those yards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Las Vegas managed 3.57 a carry, the weakest figure here, and allowed 64 sacks. Consequently their offense rarely sustained anything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Raiders do have Maxx Crosby, though. Indeed, his 10 sacks against a Miami line that conceded 38 is the one matchup that favors the home side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Players to watch<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>De&#8217;Von Achane (MIA, RB):<\/strong> 1,350 rushing yards in 2025, notably at the slate&#8217;s best team average.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Bradley Chubb (MIA, OLB):<\/strong> Eight sacks last season, notably against a line that allowed 64.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Maxx Crosby (LV, DE):<\/strong> 10 sacks in 2025; indeed, he is the Raiders&#8217; most disruptive player.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Brock Bowers (LV, TE):<\/strong> 680 receiving yards in just 12 games; indeed, he is Las Vegas&#8217;s primary target.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Ashton Jeanty (LV, RB):<\/strong> 975 rushing yards, notably behind the weaker run-blocking in this fixture.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to watch Dolphins vs Raiders<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The game kicks off at 4:25 PM ET on Sunday, September 13 at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas. FOX has the broadcast, meanwhile, with NFL+ carrying it on mobile. Because this is the late Sunday window, coverage is regional, so check your local listings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\">\n<thead>\n<tr><th>Detail<\/th><th>Dolphins vs Raiders<\/th><\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr><td><strong>Date<\/strong><\/td><td>Sunday, September 13, 2026<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td><strong>Kickoff<\/strong><\/td><td>4:25 PM ET \/ 3:25 PM CT \/ 2:25 PM MT \/ 1:25 PM PT<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td><strong>Venue<\/strong><\/td><td>Allegiant Stadium, Las Vegas, NV<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td><strong>TV<\/strong><\/td><td>FOX<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td><strong>Live stream<\/strong><\/td><td>FOX \/ NFL+<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td><strong>Week<\/strong><\/td><td>Week 1, 2026 NFL season<\/td><\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Dolphins vs Raiders prediction and score projection<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our <strong>Dolphins vs Raiders prediction<\/strong> is a Miami win, though neither team was good last season. A 7-10 record against 3-14 is most of the argument.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Las Vegas scored 241 points across seventeen games. Moreover, they allowed 64 sacks and averaged 3.57 yards a carry, so the offense had no reliable route to points.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So we will take the Dolphins to win, 23-17. Which side carries the value, though, is a separate question from who wins, and the live read on that sits in the Signal block.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Signal rates every game on our <a href=\"\/us\/nfl\/picks\/\">NFL picks page<\/a>.
