Miami Dolphins Vs Buffalo Bills Betting Odds: Opening Odds, Point Spread, Total, Predictions, And Betting Tips For Week 3 Matchup – NFL
This coming weekend, Jake Kumerow expects his team to play a confident foe. In addition, Kumerow is ready for the Bills’ brand of swagger that coincides with being 2-0 following a thrashing in prime time.
The Bills will play their first AFC East opponent on Sunday at 1 p.m. at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens, Fla., after defeating the Tennessee Titans 41-7 on Monday night at Highmark Stadium.
Only two of the NFL’s six unbeaten teams will square off in Week 3 when the Buffalo Bills travel to Miami to play the Dolphins.
The Bills defeated the Tennessee Titans by a score of 41-7 in Week 2 and have won each of their first two games by a margin of at least 21 points. Josh Allen, a quarterback, is the early MVP favorite.
Week 2 saw the Dolphins launch a ferocious recovery against the Baltimore Ravens, winning 42-38. Tua Tagovailoa, the winning quarterback who now leads the NFL with 739 passing yards in 2022, threw six touchdown passes in the victory. But facing the Bills’ defense will be a huge test.
Miami Dolphins Vs Buffalo Bills Betting Tips
The Bills’ first two games have given them a lot of momentum. They have a combined 72-17 advantage over the Tennessee Titans and the Los Angeles Rams. Josh Allen at quarterback and Stefon Diggs as wide receiver led the Bills to a dominant victory over the Titans.
Allen completed 26 of his 38 attempts for 317 yards and four touchdowns, and Diggs hauled 12 passes for 148 yards and three more scores.
The Titans only managed to gain 80 rushing yards, thanks to the defense’s sustained strength. The Bills limited Titans QB Ryan Tannehill to 117 yards on 11-for-20 passing while limiting Titans defensive back Derrick Henry to 25 yards and a score on 13 attempts.
It would be incredible to watch the Dolphins ascend to the top of the AFC East and solidify their status as an AFC contender with a victory. It’s challenging to predict against the Bills in any game, though. That is especially true, given that Buffalo has won seven straight games versus Miami.
The extent to which the Dolphins’ secondary could slow down wide-out Stefon Diggs will determine the outcome of this game. Through two games, the Pro Bowl talent has accumulated 270 yards and four touchdowns on 20 receptions.
The Bills will win thanks to his unwavering enthusiasm, but it won’t be by a wide margin. This game screams shootout from every angle. Through two weeks, the Bills and Dolphins are in the top 5 NFL teams regarding points scored, yards gained, and yards per play.
Two potent passing offenses are led by Tagovailoa, Allen, Tyreek Hill, Jaylen Waddle, Diggs, and Gabriel Davis. It’s important to note that the over has prevailed in 10 of the last 14 meetings between Buffalo and Miami.
Additionally, it has struck in 7 of the Dolphins’ last ten games dating back to Week 3 and in 13 of the Bills’ last 19 road games. Trust the current trends and support them. It’s fun to support more points being scored.
The predictions are made keeping the following facts in mind :
- Buffalo has won all seven of its games versus Miami straight up.
- In thirteen of Buffalo’s last Nineteen away games, the total has gone over.
- In its previous 11 games, Miami is 9-2 against the spread (ATS).
- In Ten of Miami’s last Fourteen games versus Buffalo, the total has gone over.
The 4-0 Dolphins, who came back with a ferocious fourth quarter on Sunday after going cold for 45 minutes, are underdogs to Buffalo by 4.5 points. Their offense is humming well, and Tua Tagovailoa currently leads the NFL in passing.
Recently, the Bills have dominated the Dolphins, defeating Miami seven times in a row and winning each game by an average margin of more than 4.5 points. With 49 seconds left in the 2020 game, Ryan Fitzpatrick threw a touchdown pass to cut the deficit from 11 points to 3, but the onside kick failed.
Final Score Prediction – Bills: 31 and Dolphins: 27

Match Preview
Following their victories over the Patriots and the highly regarded Ravens in back-to-back weeks, the Miami Dolphins have become the Buffalo Bills’ main rival in the AFC East. In Week 3, Josh Allen and the Bills try to defeat their new adversaries.
Buffalo has dominated this rivalry in recent times, defeating the Dolphins in seven straight games. However, Mike McDaniel has awakened an explosive offense with the speed of Jaylen Waddle and Tyreek Hill, thanks to a new Miami team.
To compete with the Bills, who managed to score at least 30 points in six of their seven victories, he’ll need that attack. I believe this is a terrific time to back Buffalo on the road and fade the Dolphins’ strong start.
Yes, Tua Tagolvailoa pulled off an incredible shock in Week 2 by tossing four touchdown passes in the fourth quarter. But the Bills are valuable because Miami got itself into such a jam.
Josh Allen was outstanding against Miami, and Buffalo won’t make the same mistake Baltimore did by falling asleep. Tua won’t be able to relax because of the Bills’ fierce pass pressure, and Allen should analyze the Dolphins’ defense the whole game.
Buffalo has filled the spread in 6 of its last eight games as a favorite on the road entering Week 2. Expecting the Bills to surpass that mark and easily defeat Miami for an eighth straight victory.
The Dolphins overcame a 35-14 deficit against the Ravens on Sunday thanks to quarterback Tua Tagovailoa’s 469 yards and six touchdown passes, becoming the first team since 2010 to rally from 21 points down in the fourth quarter.
With 19 seconds remaining in regulation, Tagovailoa’s 7-yard touchdown catch to Jaylen Waddle sealed the victory.
