2. Bills at Dolphins

It’s hard to find a team that’s been more impressive than the Buffalo Bills have been through the first two weeks. They opened the season on the road against the defending champion Los Angeles Rams and won convincingly, 31-10. They then played the Tennessee Titans — the No. 1 seed from 2021 — and ended up with a 41-7 victory.

That means in two weeks, they’ve put up 72 points while giving up just 17. What makes that even more impressive is the fact they had several turnovers in Week 1 and took their starters for part of the second half of their win over Tennessee.

With all this being said, they now have a tough task ahead of them with a trip to South Beach to face the Miami Dolphins. Also sitting at 2-0, Miami won easily against the New England Patriots 20-7. They then took everything the Baltimore Ravens could throw at them but still won 42-38 in comeback fashion. A 28-point fourth quarter improved their record to 2-0 and they now look to take control of the AFC East.

Buffalo is favored by 5.5 points entering the contest but they can’t take the Dolphins lightly. Josh Allen, Stefon Diggs, and Gabriel Davis are all tough to stop but Tua Tagovailoa is playing excellent right now and has Jaylon Waddle, Tyreek Hill, and Mike Gesicki at his disposal. This one could be another exciting game that could come down to the final seconds.
