What will this matchup look like when the quarterback situations are sorted? The game is scheduled to kick off Sunday at 8:20 p.m. ET from Hard Rock Stadium.

Lorenzo Reyes: Dolphins 29, Steelers 20

While the upset over the Bucs was a much-needed reversal for Pittsburgh, Tampa Bay left a lot of points on the board with its red-zone decision-making. The Dolphins have lost three in a row and will have Tua Tagovailoa back under center. This offense has too much speed and the Steeler offense is still questionable with either Kenny Pickett or Mitchell Trubisky.

Tua Tagovailoa’s return should boost the Dolphins, who have lost three straight since their 3-0 start. Tagovailoa will rely on Tyreek Hill and his defense to outplay Steelers rookie Kenny Pickett and former coach Brian Flores, roaming the Pittsburgh sideline as a defensive assistant.

Lance Pugmire: Dolphins 31, Steelers 13

The expected return of quarterback Tua Tagovailoa from his concussions should reinvigorate Miami at home.
