Bills @ Dolphins Week 2 Preview

Date: Sunday, September 20, 2020

Time: 1:00 PM EST

Location: Hard Rock Stadium – Miami Gardens, Florida

The Dolphins are playing their second division this season, against Buffalo. In their last two games against the Bills, the Dolphins lost 31 – 21 and 37 – 20. The Dolphins added Byron Jones, while Buffalo added Stefon Diggs to their receiving core. Diggs against Jones will be a major matchup to watch in week two. If the Dolphins want any chance of winning the division, they will have to beat the Bills this week, especially at home. In conclusion, Buffalo is the better team, but with the addition of the heat in Miami, then this game could be interesting this Sunday.

At the moment, the Dolphins are favored to win this game by a point spread of +5.5 points. My prediction is Dolphins 20 – Bills 17. While the Dolphins offense looked awful against the Patriots, they should aim to run the ball more, since the Bills are down two of their starting linebackers. As long as the Dolphins play better on the defensive side of the ball, then they should be able to win this game.
