These are the three key matchups for the Buffalo Bills in Week 2 against the Miami Dolphins.

The Buffalo Bills will look to keep their winning ways going into Week 2 when they face the Miami Dolphins. This is a rivalry that the Buffalo Bills have dominated recently winning the last three matchups and have also won five of the last six.

One of the big reasons for the Bills’ recent success has been that Josh Allen has played very well against the Dolphins. In four career games, Allen has averaged 228 passing yards, 79.5 rushing yards to go along with 10 passing touchdowns, three rushing touchdowns, and only three interceptions.

This is good news for Josh Allen as he is coming off a career game against the New York Jets as he threw for over 300 yards for the first time and finished with three total touchdowns.

However, this Dolphins defense is vastly different than what Josh Allen has faced even from last year. The team went out and added Byron Jones, Kyle Van Noy, and former Buffalo Bills first round pick, Shaq Lawson.

While Josh Allen will be a key part of the Buffalo Bills’ success on Sunday these are three key matchups that fans should pay extra close attention to.
