The Dolphins are looking to keep their winning record and are coming off of a BYE week. They should be well rested and be prepared for the Bills. The Bills came close to stealing the game against the Bengals last weekend, but lost it late. The Bills should have Thad Lewis lining up under center on Sunday. He did well for the Bills last weekend, but he has been nursing an injury this week.

Bills Player to Watch: Thad Lewis

Thad Lewis will be looking to make his second straight start for the Bills. Starting quarterback E.J. Manuel expects to be out a few more weeks with a sprained knee. Lewis was solid in his first start, completing 19 of 32 passes for 216 yards and a couple of touchdowns in the game.
Dolphins Player to Watch: Ryan Tannehill

Ryan Tannehill is getting sacked over and over and over again. His offensive line cannot protect him. Sooner or later this will start to affect him. This season, he has completed 62 percent of his passes for 1383 yards and 6 touchdowns. He also has 5 interceptions this season.

With the Dolphins at home and coming off of a BYE week, they have all the advantage going into the game. The Bills are starting their backup quarterback, but the Bills are able to compete with him running the show. The defense will be able to hit Tannehill a few times, but that still wont’t stop the Dolphins from putting up enough points to win the game.
Dolphins 19, Bills 14
