Miami Dolphins vs. Buffalo Bills Best Bet

To open the week three slate, we have two teams heading in opposite directions.

The 2-0 Buffalo Bills will host the lifeless 0-2 Dolphins. Miami head coach Mike McDaniel seems to be sitting firmly on the hot seat as another lackluster performance may push owner Stephen Ross to fire him going into the mini-bye.

The Bills will look to replicate their week two performance with another convincing win over a division opponent on the short week.

For this matchup, I'm keying in on Bills' running back James Cook who is coming off a strong 132-yard performance on 21 carries.

This is still a committee where Cook will receive less than 50% of the snap share. On a short week, look for the Bills to attack through the air early against a putrid Miami secondary and lean on the run late in a positive game script.

Off a 21-carry performance, the Bills should look to limit Cook's workload on TNF with more Ray Davis in the mix.

Can the Dolphins beat the Bills?

To date, the 12.5-point spread is tied for the largest of the 2025 regular season. In the NFL, anything is possible, but it'll take a miraculous effort for Miami to beat the Buffalo Bills this Thursday night.
