Why can the Miami Dolphins win?
The Miami Dolphins were put to the test by the improving Jacksonville Jaguars in their first game of the season. The win showed that they have the resilience to take on any team that comes their way. That and the fact that the Bills’ defense has yet to generate game-clinching pressure, gives the elite receiving core led by Tyreek Hill the chance to dominate.
Their defense will go up against a young receiver core. That should give them the motivation to dominate the Bills on every possession. If both aspects of their game work well, the Dolphins can come away with a sweet victory and focus on the next three slightly easier games.
Why can the Buffalo Bills win?
Josh Allen played excellent football in their opening-day win over the Arizona Cardinals. His young receivers headed by rookie Keon Coleman were all feasting Allen spread the ball around. That confidence can go up a notch if Allen continues on a similar pattern to lead them to victory. With the way the offensive line has been playing, Allen can take his time to dissect the Dolphins defense.
The Dolphins won’t have the luxury of their two, star running backs. That suggests that the Bills’ defense can breathe easy and shift their focus on the wide receivers. That extra bit of focus will be necessary as they go up against some of the best in the league. But hold up their part and the Bills can snatch away a crucial victory.
