The Miami Dolphins (5-7) host the New York Giants (5-7) in a very unappealing Monday Night Football game. Both teams are going to look to get something positive going as they try to crawl toward .500 on the season. Here are five bold predictions for what you could expect come Monday night.

Running production has been one of the biggest issues for the Giants this season. They have stuck with a committee without truly giving someone a chance to take the job. Darkwa has averaged over four yards a carry in his limited work and seems to be the best pure runner of the group. They will finally realize this and give him a run this week against the Dolphins.

The Giants have had some trouble with running backs of late, especially in the pass game. All you have to do is look back at what Bilal Powell did for the Jets last week. Miller has emerged as a true dual threat running back this season when he is given the proper amount of touches he deserves. If Miami gives him the ball this week, he will run wild for at least 150 yards of total offense and probably a score or two.

Calling the offensive line of the Giants banged up would be an understatement. Ereck Flowers joins the fray of injured lineman this week as the patchwork continues to be put in place. It's to the point where any defensive line can exploit the Giants. Look for Manning to be running for his life again.

2. Jarvis Landry and Odell Beckham Will Score Touchdowns

The two best buds from LSU are very open about just how great of friends they are. I'm sure this matchup is going to be very fun for both of them as they try to outdo the other. It should bring out the best of both of them. In fact, they will both score at least one touchdown each in this one. Those two will be one of the few bright spots to watch in this one.

Most people will turn away from this game unless they are fans of the two teams. It should be an ugly and sloppy contest. It's hard to pick a winner, but right now the Giants still have more to play for and will somehow find a way to not blow this one. They will win 23-20 and somehow stay alive for the division crown.
