AMEDEUS' NFL AFC EAST TOTAL OF THE MONTH!
(NFL) Bills (BUF) vs. Dolphins (MIA),
Total: 49.00 | -110.00 Under
Result: Win
The Bills are coming into this game off of a 34-28 win against the Cardinals in their 1st game of the season. The Cardinals came out and punched the Bills in the mouth early, but the Bills settled into the game in the 2nd half and came out of half allowing no points in the 3rd quarter. Now they are going on the road in a short week and their offense was not as good on the road last season. Their offense only averaged 26.5 PPG last season, and they scored 24 points or less in 6 of their 8 road games. Their defense was one of the better ones in the league last season, averaging 18.3 PPG against, and their defense allowed 24 points or less in 6 of their 8 road games as well. They have also had a much stronger run game over the last year. They were very good on the ground against the Cardinals and establishing the run game here on the road will definitely be a big part of their game plan. They are going up against a Dolphins team that won their 1st game of the season at home against the Jaguars 20-17. The Dolphins had a very slow start with their offense, scoring just 7 points in the 1st half, but their defense kept them in the game so they were able to come back and win in the 2nd half. The Dolphins were not able to run the ball effectively in that game, but that will definitely be a focus here in this divisional game on a short week with less time to prepare a complex game plan. Both teams will be committed to running the ball in this game and that is going to shorten this game with the clock running. These two have also played in lower scoring games recently when playing in Miami, the last 3 straight meetings in Miami as well as 5 of the last 7 seeing 40 points total or less. The Bills also saw 4 of their 6 divisional games last season stay under 49 points, including 2 of their 3 road games, while the Dolphins saw 5 of their 6 divisional games stay under 49 points, including all 3 at home. This is going to be a lower scoring and more defensive game between two divisional rivals on a short week, this game will stay under the total.
