And it concludes with the Cowboys Vs. The Buccaneers game is on Monday, January 16. But many fans are anxious for the first game on Sunday, i.e., the Bills Vs. Dolphins match.

The local AFC East Rivals meet for the third time this season. And this time, a spot for the playoff qualification is at stake. Who do you think will win this game? Let us look closely at the two teams and this upcoming match.

Bills Vs. Dolphins: A Rivalry Revisited

NFL fans are aware of the fierce competition between the two sides. The Dolphins and Bills have been facing each other since 1966. The two have played 114 games so far, with the Dolphins coming out on top 61 times.

On the other hand, the Bills have won 52 games against the Dolphins. The two have drawn only one game out of the 114 regular season matches.

The AFC East Rivals have also squared off four times in the NFL playoffs. However, postseason matches have favored the Bills as they have a 3-1 lead over the Dolphins. Sunday’s game will be their fifth meeting in the NFL playoffs.

The Bills have a winning streak of 7 over the Dolphins, which started from 2018 till 2021. But it is the Dolphins who have a firm grasp as far as streaks are concerned. From 1970 to 1979, the Bills never beat the Dolphins, who held a 20-match win streak.

Latest Meetings Between The Two Teams

The two teams have already played twice in the 2022-23 season. Both have won one game each. The first meeting was on September 23, when the Dolphins grabbed a close 21-19 victory at home.

Dolphins vs Bills

The two faced each other again recently, on December 17. This time, the Bills emerged victorious with a 32-29 victory at the Highmark Stadium in New York.

The Bills have finished the regular season with a strong 13-3 record. They were 7-1 in home games and 6-2 while playing away from home.

It is a depressing end for the Dolphins, with a 9-8 record in the regular season. They finished 6-2 at home and went 3-6 while playing away.

Bills Vs. Dolphins: Playoff Record

This is the first time in six years that the Dolphins are playing in the NFL postseason. Their Week 18 victory over the New York Jets guaranteed their spot in the playoffs. On the other hand, the Bills have enjoyed playoff Chances every year.

The Bills have a playoff record of 17-19. They have played four Super Bowl championships but have yet to win a single one.

Playoff Record

On the other hand, the Dolphins have a 20-21 record. They have played five Super Bowl championships and won twice. Their last win was in 1973 at Super Bowl VIII, where they defeated the Minnesota Vikings 24-7.

The two teams face off for the fifth time in NFL playoff history. The Bills have the firm advantage with three wins in their favor over Miami’s one.

Both teams grabbed their playoff spots on the final day of the regular season. Miami won 11-6 against the Jets, and the Bills beat the Patriots 35-23.

Other teams in the AFC bracket include

  • Los Angeles Chargers
  • Jacksonville Jaguars
  • Baltimore Ravens
  • Kansas City Chiefs
  • Cincinnati Bengals

What Are The Odds For This Game?

The Dolphins are not in their best form at the moment. Their only spark came in last Sunday’s qualification game against the New York Jets. Before that, the previous five outings were disastrous, as all matches ended in losses.

This five-match winless run includes the 32-29 loss against the Bills. Their last victory before the Jets game was against the Texans on November 27, where they won 30-15.

Meanwhile, the Bills are enjoying a 7-match winning run. They secured their spot after beating the New England Patriots 35-23 last Sunday.

Their previous loss was against the Minnesota Vikings on November 13 last year. It ended in a close, 33-30, for Minnesota. The Bills’ January 3 game against the Bengals was canceled because of Damar Hamlin’s cardiac arrest.

However, Hamlin is recovering quickly, which is a positive sign. Thus, the numbers suggest an easy win for the Bills. We have seen them as potential Super Bowl contenders judging by their record. And if postseason jinxes are any consideration, it could end badly for the Dolphins.

The Bills can make it 4-1, or the Dolphins can overcome the odds and make it 3-2. But the Dolphins can try and build momentum from last Sunday’s match. Moreover, they are one of only three teams who have beaten the Bills this season.

Miami has played its last three games with different quarterbacks. And we still need to find out who will start this Sunday. Quarterback TuaTagovailoa is on the sidelines and will not be in the starting lineup.

Here are the odds for this game.

  • Over/under – 43.5 points
  • Moneyline – Bills -800 and Dolphins +550
  • Spread – Bills -11
