Historically, Miami has found it tough to secure a win in Orchard Park, even during the eras of legends like Dan Marino, Mark Duper, Keith Byars, Keith Jackson, and Bernie Parmalee. Despite a close 32-29 game last year, many still believe in Buffalo’s prowess at their home ground.
The key to Buffalo’s success this Sunday could very well be James Cook. Additionally, with the Dolphins potentially double-teaming stars like Stefon Diggs and Gabe Davis, this might set the stage for secondary receivers. It’s worth keeping an eye on Dawson Knox, who might just steal the show.
While the lean is toward the Bills, historical data reveals a trend of close games between these two sides. Remember the thrilling snow game in Buffalo last year? Close scores and high tensions are undoubtedly on tap, and Sunday’s matchup promises nothing less. Gear up, NFL fans; this is one you won’t want to miss!
