The second day of football during NFL’s Wild Card Weekend starts with a potential clunker. The Miami Dolphins limped into the playoffs off a less-than-inspiring 11-6 victory over the New York Jets. And now, they get to go against the Buffalo Bills, who seem to have found the offensive firepower they started the season with.
Last weekend, the Bills defeated the New England Patriots in a high-scoring affair to lock up the No. 2 seed. Josh Allen looked like his old, dominant self. But it was the special teams that really stole the show, with Nyheim Hines returning two kickoffs for touchdowns. Now they get to face off against a Dolphins team who could be trotting out their third-string QB in this one.

As expected, the home team is laying a big number in this matchup. The Bills, alongside the Chiefs and Bengals, currently have some of the best odds to win the Super Bowl. Meanwhile, Miami currently has the worst odds of any of the teams that made the playoffs.
It is an unfortunate situation for Miami fans. The year started off incredibly promising, with QB Tua Tagovailoa even putting his name in the MVP conversation for a little bit. Then, the injury bug hit, and it hit hard. Tua hasn’t been able to stay healthy and could possibly miss this game due to his current concussion struggles.

Behind him, Teddy Bridgewater suffered a finger injury and has also missed time. That has led to rookie Skylar Thompson taking way more meaningful snaps than anyone expected at the start of the year.
It is dire for Miami. The Bills are 7-1 when playing at home this year, and Miami is a disappointing 3-6 on the road. These two teams are just in different places right now. Yes, they split their two games during the season, but Miami’s win was all the way back in Week 3.
I like what Miami has done, especially on offense. They have the right pieces in place, and head coach Mike McDaniel seems to be the guy. Unfortunately, this just isn’t their year. Buffalo will cruise to an easy double-digit win.
