Bills vs Dolphins Preview
Both of these teams have gotten off to great starts this season. For the Bills, they’ve looked everybody bit like the Super Bowl favorite that many predicted them to be. For the Dolphins Tua is off to a great start in new head coach Mike McDaniels’ offense and they look like a serious playoff contender.
The Bills’ two wins so far have been blowouts as they’ve averaged 36 points and allowed just 8.5 points per game so far. Josh Allen has looked like an MVP candidate so far passing for 614 yards, seven touchdowns, and two interceptions.
Stefon Diggs has looked like the best receiver in the league so far this season with 20 catches for 270 yards and four touchdowns already. The next closest receiver on the team is Gabe Davis with four receptions for 88 yards, but he missed the Titans game.
The one weakness of the Bills offense could be the rushing attack. They’ve run for 222 yards so far this season but haven’t really established a dominant back, Devin Singletary currently leads the team with 67 yards.
Defensively the Bills have just been nasty. They’ve generated nine sacks and seven turnovers in just two games.
For the Dolphins, Tua has looked sharp so far passing for 739 yards with seven touchdowns and two interceptions. Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle have looked like every bit of the duo that Miami hoped they would be.
Hill has caught 19 passes for 284 yards and two touchdowns, while Waddle has 15 receptions for 240 yards and three touchdowns. Like the Bills, the Dolphins run game so far has been their weakness.
Miami has rushed for just 156 yards so far this season and averaged just 3.7 yards per carry. Raheem Mostert is the leading rusher with 67 yards.
The Dolphins’ defense has been a mixed bag so far, they looked good against the Jets but struggled against the Ravens. So far this season they are allowing 22.5 points per game.
The defense has also only recorded two sacks and three takeaways so far. With the way the Bills’ offense and defense have looked so far the Dolphins will have to step up to have a chance.
