Our Miami Dolphins travel to New York State this weekend to take on the Buffalo Bills. Earlier this week, I asked-
A) What will be the final score in this week’s Miami Dolphins game against the Buffalo Bills?
62Lou foresees a Tua implosion, leading to a loss.
Bills 37 Miami 20… sadly Tua is simply NOT GOOD ENOUGH to beat the Bills. He will make mistakes, and choke under the pressure that McNerd boy, AKA the Capri Kid puts him in – by throwing so many (blown up) backwards passes and second down (predictable runs) telegraphing the fins play sequence, again and again to the hungry bills. In the end Tua will throw up some passes and probably fumble in the pocket AGAIN.
Louie the lobster thinks it might be close… maybe…
24-34 Jill’s
If the Phins 3rd down % is 50% +, it might be a close game.
glen55 rolled with sarcasm I assume, despite the lack of the proper font.
I would be very surprised if the Dolphins win by more than 50.
Alpha6 is highly, and I fear, very much overly optimistic.
Dolphins 24, Billies 3.
Dolphins D, one sack, one fumble recovery, one pick-six interception off Joshy.
Wildfin22 believes that the Phin’s lack of running plays dooms them in the end.
Miami 42 passes and 21 Runs Leading to a final score Bills 35 Miami 24!! I pray I’m wrong on both counts Please win FINSDAFUP
SuperG! is just hoping for a major scandal to hit the Bills.
If someone has tapes of Josh at a Diddy party, please release them! Or better yet, don’t even bother. Wait until the playoffs and let them get knocked out in the WC round. The Dolphins would still lose, even to Mitch Trubisky.
Bills 52-28
Alley Gator sees another blowout loss at the hands of the Bills.
Jason Sanders goes 1 for 3, with one wide right and one blocked. Tua doesn’t finish the game. Tyler Bass kicks 4 field goals and 2 extra points, Josh runs one in and throws one to Khalil Shakir. Bills win 26 to 3.
NCSurferMike has a sad prediction.
Fins go up early 7-0. By the end of the 4th quarter, the score is Buffalo 45-7 Fins.
DolphinsKings1 at least has his Dodgers! (Imagine how I felt when my Rangers finally got one last year!)
Miami Dolphins 28 Barfalo JiLLLLs 35. Unfortunately. I see the Dolphins getting butt romped without lube and no pleasure all pain. It will be 28-14 at halftime. The Billygoats will score 1 more and we score two more but can’t complete the tie in the 4th. Barfalo moves to 7-2. The Dolphins fall to 2-6. Sad season boys and girls. OUCH! At least I got my Dodgers and another World Series Championship! 8 time Champions!
daytonadolfan says a team of girls is going to take us down.
21-34 Jills , Fins make a valiant effort but they are not quite there yet !
Tannenbum sees the Bills continuation at the top of the AFC East.
Having already amassed 6 wins, the bills have basically won the AFC east. Starting this game, they rest their starters for the remaining 10 weeks of the regular season and eek out a 31-10 nailbiter of a win.
Bill Moody sees more ugly.
I predict a Loss and at least 4 new injuries.
ChumpPunk see the Dolphins only managing two field goals in a loss.
Bills 38 – Fish 6. By the end of the 3rd qt. the Bills have their wives playing … the Dolphins still can’t score a TD!
DolfanPhil predicts a loss and a rough day for Sanders.
Sanders finishes 2/4 with a miss from 50+ and a miss from under 35yds. Miami give up a over 70yds and a rushing TD to Allen.
D.A says that Miami is going to get destroyed.
I’m dreading this game. My Entire family are Bills fans. Twice a year I have to listen to them. Last game I shut TV off well before Tua got hurt. Unfortunately, it’s going to be the same this week. Buffalo Gonna destroy Miami. They will have their one great drive early in the game like they always do. But not much after that. I’ve been following The Dolphins since they were born, so I’m old. I remember when Miami owned the bills for years, as a matter of fact, pretty much owned most of the NFL. It’s been a long 20 years now and there’s no end in site. Thank god for the block option on the cell phones.
SlayerNation1 has things going totally wrong, and the team turning on McDaniel.
BUF 41 – MIA 17
McDaniel unprepared, outcoached, outclasses. The locker room slowly turns on McD after another beat down. This drumbeat will become steadier and louder after the following week primetime embarrassment @LAR followed by a 5 hour red eye.
Kevin Harlan/Trent Green are being punished for some reason. “He’s Underthrown Hill” “He’s Underthrown Hill” “WOW look at Hill put no effort in making a play on that ball!! WOW!!!”
Going back to Week 1 2023, MIA is 9-0 when Hill has 100 yards. And then you get granular, and see all 9 are against bottom feeders, of course.
Two or three safety shell, jam 10/17 at the line. Good teams been doing it since @SF in 2022 and McD hasn’t adjusted since.
surfla8 is much more confident than most.
Sunday: Dolphins win, 13-9.
What? How? No way that’s gonna happen in Higmark Stadium, right?
1) Bills might come in overconfident and underprepared.
2) Not very many Josh doing Josh things this season, maybe we get lucky and get a pick six or fumble recovery for TD.
3) Maybe Mike has a come to Jesus epiphany: In a loud stadium you need less motions and more balls thrown north instead of southeast or southwest.
4) Some black swan event happens: Aliens attack, Josh is ejected for unsportsmanlike conduct or divine intervention.
Look, I’ve been a Dolphins fan going on 40 years and I’m going to be positive.
I’m well aware of where this season is headed, but each game is an individual event and I have no money on this “prediction”, so why not watch the game with a tiny bit of hope? (Never bet on your team: betting for can lead to double disappointment, betting against is just a Rick move.)
Stranger things have happened, right?
EJPLAYA sees this game as our last shot. Fact!
Not going to happen, but our last shot at somehow making the playoffs is to beat the bills and close the afc east race a bit. They’d still need to drop a few here and there the rest of the year
and we almost run the tables, but that’s the last glimmer of hope. Let’s go beat them and see what happens.
MiMiami likes recycling!
I got some backlash for my prediction against Buffalo earlier this year. And considering how (relatively close) I was, I’m going to recycle it.
Who is going to win straight up? Buffalo
What is your final score prediction win or lose? 37 – 20
Who do you think will be the star(s) of the game on offense? Jaylen Waddle has a solid game, but Josh Allen dominates.
Who do you think will be the star(s) of the game on defense? Espenesa a
nd Philips have multiple sacks, each.has multiple sacksWhat other bold prediction do you have for this week’s game? The Bills easily clear the 2.5 over TDs (special game bet on Hard Rock Bet).
What will you be watching for that no one else seems to be discussing? Will anyone from the TE group show up? The offensive unit has been incredibly disappointing. In 6 seasons and 8 games Durham Smythe has three touchdowns in his career. Julian Hill is a preseason body and Jonnu Smith (I’ll say it again) is a J.A.G. that someway-somehow generated buzz on this SB Nation page.
herbert pollack predicts the Dolphins being in it but still losing by a TD margin.
31-24
USMCFinzFreak is a realist!
42-17 Jills
I’m just trying to be a realist. Until this team can prove it can consistently beat quality teams, I will stick with them losing. Josh is playing at home and lives for sinking any hope we have.
There is little confidence in the Dolphins pulling out a win this week, but I don’t think we are surprised. The Bills are an arduous task at home when things are going right. Thank you to each of you who took the time to read our question of the day and add your answer. Please join us tomorrow at 1 PM EST for our game live thread.
