What the model sees in Dolphins at Broncos

The Dolphins travel to face the Broncos in Week 13. Our power ratings put the Broncos 12th of 32 at +1.2 (Playoff tier) and the Dolphins 28th at -3.3 (Below Avg tier) — a 4.5-point gap that home field widens to a 7-point line on the Broncos, 69% to win. It rates as the 14th-widest of the 14 games in Week 13.

The sharpest unit gap in the game runs one way: the Broncos offense grades +0.6 (16th of 32) against a Dolphins defense at -2.7 (28th) — 3.3 points of separation on our scale, and the single biggest reason the line sits where it does. Going the other direction, the Dolphins offense (-1.4, 26th) meets the Broncos defense (+0.4, 8th), a 1.8-point gap. Special teams adds to it: the Dolphins grade +0.8, 6th in the league, against +0.2 (25th) on the other side — close to a point of hidden margin.

Zoom out to the full season and the model projects the Broncos at 9.1 wins (favored in 9 of 17) and the Dolphins at 6.7 (favored in 2) — 2.4 wins apart across the year. By win probability this is the 16th-hardest game on the Broncos' schedule and the 4th-hardest on the Dolphins'.

Recent history, for context only: 9 regular-season meetings since 2002, 5-4 in the Dolphins' favour, plus 1 playoff game. They last met in 2023: Dolphins won 70-20 in September. Over their last 4 meetings the Broncos are 2-2. It is not an input to the line — rosters turn over faster than series records do.

On conditions: Denver home games in December have run a median 48°F and 3 mph of wind across 11 games since 2015, with 36% at or below 40°F and a low of 16°F. Our model has no weather term, so treat that as an input it has not priced.

Does the model earn this number? In 448 of the 3266 walk-forward games it has been graded on (2013-2024, no market line used), it landed in the 65-70% range. Those favourites went 68%. The 69% on the Broncos here sits in that same band, and the history backs it.

Kalshi has not listed KXNFLGAME-26DEC06MIADEN, so there is no price on the board and no edge to quote. The model's number to hold it to: Broncos 69%, Dolphins 31%. Applying our five-point threshold, that makes Broncos contracts a buy at 64c or below and Dolphins contracts a buy at 26c or below — anything between is inside the noise, and we pass. Week 1's KXNFLGAME contracts opened in May 2026 and the rest of the slate lists as the season gets closer; this page picks up the price automatically when it does.

Prediction markets are not sportsbooks — you trade a contract that settles at $1 or $0, not a wager against a house line. Informational only; trade responsibly.
