Things have gone south for the Miami Dolphins, and after a 3-0 start, Miami is 3-3 and looking for answers on both sides of the ball. The Dolphins have a potential Sunday Night Football home game against the Pittsburgh Steelers, who won last week against Tampa Bay but are just 2-4 down to start the year. Both teams need a win as they attempt to return to success this season, but which players on each side have the best chance of producing for your NFL DFS rosters?
The position in the NFL DFS player pool for Sunday night that will make or break tournaments on sites like DraftKings and FanDuel is quarterback. Tua Tagovailoa’s return from a concussion will be one of the biggest storylines in the game, but should it be included in your NFL DFS strategy? Before you make your NFL DFS picks for Steelers vs Dolphins on Sunday Night Football, be sure to check out SportsLine Fantasy Daily Expert Mike McClure’s NFL DFS tips and strategy.

Top NFL DFS picks for Dolphins vs. Steelers
One of McClure’s top NFL DFS picks for Sunday Night Football is Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill. Last week against the Vikings, Hill finished with the seventh-highest single-game yardage of his career, recording 12 catches for 177 yards. In six games, he already has 50 receptions for 177 yards and two touchdowns.
Hill’s lack of end zone calls is a bit of a concern, especially since both of his scores came in one game. However, Pittsburgh has allowed the second-most touchdown passes in the NFL this season with 12, and the most receiving yards to opposing wide receivers (1,263). The Steelers have traditionally done well bottling Hill, who has 167 receiving yards in four career games against Pittsburgh, but Chris Godwin torched the Steelers last week for 95 yards, and Hill is a significantly more explosive receiving threat.
Part of McClure’s optimal NFL DFS strategy also includes training Steelers running back Najee Harris. It’s been a tough season for Harris as the Steelers offensive line has struggled to get a consistent push up front. Last week, Harris rushed for 42 yards on 14 carries, but scored a touchdown on one of his two receptions against the Buccaneers.
The Dolphins’ early success masked the fact that they actually have a pretty ordinary defense. Miami has allowed the fourth fastest touchdown this season with eight. Although running backs only rushed for 3.77 yards per carry against the Dolphins, Miami was vulnerable defending the position in the passing game. Harris is a fanatic wide receiver, and the Dolphins have allowed the sixth-most receiving yards to running backs this season (286). You can see the rest of McClure’s NFL DFS tips here.
