Predicting the Bills vs. Dolphins matchup: Will Miami secure an upset win or will Buffalo maintain their undefeated streak?
The NFL season continues with a thrilling matchup as the Buffalo Bills host the Miami Dolphins in Week 3 of 'Thursday Night Football.' The game, which took place on the night of September 18th into the early hours of September 19th, 2025, starting at 2:15 AM German time, is set to be streamed on Amazon Prime.
The Bills, currently 2-0, will be aiming to secure the top spot in the AFC. They've had a strong start to the season, with a comeback win over the Ravens and a victory against the Jets. The Dolphins, on the other hand, are struggling, sitting at 0-2 following a loss to the Colts and a defeat at the hands of the Patriots.
In their last game, the Dolphins put up a stronger offensive performance, totalling 358 yards and scoring 27 points. However, they were inefficient, going 4 of 10 on third down and 0 of 2 on fourth down. Quarterback Tua Tagovailoa was 47 of 71 for 542 yards and two scores through the air, and also rushed for 89 yards and two touchdowns.
The Bills, meanwhile, held the Jets to 154 total yards and 11 points in their last game, not allowing a single third-down conversion. Their offensive powerhouse, led by quarterback Josh Allen, is expected to have space to operate all night long, as the Dolphins' secondary is in dire straits.
The Bills' running back James Cook is off to a great start, with 176 yards on 34 carries and a league-high three rushing touchdowns. If Dolphins' star wide receiver Jaylen Waddle misses the game, Christian Benford may travel with Tyreek Hill and try to force Miami's passing game to the short areas of the field.
The Dolphins' defense has struggled to get their pass rush all the way home, and Allen is adept at avoiding sacks. The Bills are also dealing with injuries, with Ed Oliver, Matt Milano, and possibly Taron Johnson, Shaq Thompson, and Cam Lewis likely to miss the game.
The game will take place at Highmark Stadium in Orchard Park, NY. The Bills are favourites to win, with odds of -12.5, and the over/under is set at 49.5. Predictions suggest a close game, with a score of 33-16 in favour of the Bills, and the Bills favoured by -11.5 points.
Miami's offensive line is still a major question mark for the game. The Dolphins have given up at least 122 rushing yards in each of their two games this season. If they can't stop the Bills' rushing attack, it could be a long night for the Dolphins.
This promises to be an exciting matchup, with both teams looking to make a statement. Tune in to Amazon Prime to catch all the action.
