2017 NFL Picks, score predictions for Week 17

Buffalo Bills (8-7) at Miami Dolphins (6-9)

All season long, the Bills have failed to win when it matters most. Well, as it so happens, the Bills need a win in the biggest of ways in Week 17. While it’s no guarantee a victory gets them into the postseason, it’ll certainly help their cause.

Unfortunately for them, I have a feeling the Miami Dolphins are going to play spoiler in what will turn out to be the last game of the season for both of these teams. The Dolphins have been the polar opposite of Buffalo in 2017, winning the ones they shouldn’t and losing the ones they shouldn’t.

Jay Cutler will come out looking for revenge on the team that beat him only two weeks ago. The defense will also enter Week 17 with something to prove, making life difficult on Tyrod Taylor and the rest of the Buffalo offense. The Bills sport one of the league’s worst offenses, which should continue to ring true on Sunday.

Either way, this will be a boring matchup between two teams that have been extremely inconsistent all season long. While it’ll be close for most of the game, the Dolphins will pull away in the final quarter to solidify their spoiler role.

Prediction: Dolphins win 23-17
