This Sunday, the Miami Dolphins and the Buffalo Bills are set to clash in a highly anticipated National Football League matchup. The Miami Dolphins have taken the league by storm, securing three consecutive victories to kick off the 2023 season.
Their impressive run began with two away wins, and they followed it up with a remarkable 70-point performance in their home opener against the Denver Broncos.
Meanwhile, the Buffalo Bills find themselves in pursuit of the Dolphins, aiming to become the sole AFC East team capable of keeping up with Miami’s blistering start.
The Bills hold a 2-1 record, having stumbled in their season opener against the Jets but rebounded with a convincing victory over Washington in Week 3. The Buffalo Bills come into this game listed at -2.5. The total for this game is set at 53.5 points.
Red Hot Miami Dolphins
As the Miami Dolphins kick off their game today, they proudly hold the title of the highest-scoring team in the National Football League, averaging a remarkable 43.3 points per game. While this torrid pace may not be sustainable over the long run, it underscores the offensive firepower possessed by this team.
In their recent victory, both Raheem Mostert and Devon Achane showcased their prowess by collectively tallying four rushing touchdowns, solidifying the Dolphins’ status as the league’s premier rushing team with an impressive 188.3 yards per game. Mostert spearheads this ground assault, averaging 13.6 rushing attempts, 80 yards, and two touchdowns per game.
Miami’s aerial attack is equally formidable, ranking atop the league with 362 passing yards per game. Quarterback Tua Tagovailoa has amassed an impressive 1,024 yards and eight touchdowns in just three games. Tyreek Hill stands as the league’s premier receiver, having hauled in 412 yards and four touchdowns.
Following this matchup, the Dolphins are set to enjoy a pair of consecutive home games, hosting the New York Giants and the Carolina Panthers before embarking on a Sunday Night Football clash with the Philadelphia Eagles on October 22nd.
Buffalo Bills Still AFC East Champs
On the other side, the Buffalo Bills embrace their underdog status despite being favored in this game. The Bills tend to perform exceptionally well on their home turf, and this game carries significant importance for both the team and its passionate fan base, the Bills Mafia.
Despite Josh Allen’s four interceptions to start the season, he has managed to amass five touchdowns. Stefon Diggs leads the receiving corps with an impressive 25 receptions for 279 yards and a touchdown.
Buffalo’s ground game relies on James Cook, who carries the ball approximately 15 times per game, accumulating 267 rushing yards thus far in 2023. The Bills enter the game as the league’s second-highest-scoring team, averaging 30.3 points per game, and they boast the second-ranked defense, allowing a mere 11.7 points per game.
In the upcoming weeks, the Buffalo Bills are set to take on the Jacksonville Jaguars in London before returning home to face the New York Giants on Sunday Night Football.
Home Team Wins
Sure, the Miami Dolphins are red hot, but they have not seen a defense yet this season like Buffalo. The Dolphins and Bills are familiar with each other, and that’s going to work to the defense advantage. Points will still be scored, but the Bills are going to turn the Dolphins over a couple of times and come away with the win in this game.
The final bet for the big game on Sunday is the Buffalo Bills -2.5 over the Miami Dolphins.
