The under is 9-4 in Bills last 13 games in September. The under is 7-3 in Dolphins last 10 vs. AFC. The Bills are 3-1-1 ATS in their last 5 meetings.
The Buffalo Bills were super hyped up this offseason and through 2 games they’ve done nothing to lighten those expectations. Right now, the Bills are the team to beat, and they’ve absolutely dominated the Dolphins in past meetings. You can understand why this line is what it is. With that said, this is a different Dolphins team from the coaching staff to the talent, and they have the pieces mainly on offense to go blow for blow with this Bills club. This is a measuring stick game for both teams that are competing for an AFC East crown. I’m going to fade the public and grab the points with the Dolphins at home. This is the biggest Dolphins home game in recent memory, and that has to count for something.
