Fantasy Football: Josh Allen’s Week 8 Outlook against the Dolphins
Josh Allen has an opportunity for another big week in fantasy football against the Miami Dolphins.
The Buffalo Bills were on bye this past week and Josh Allen returns in a plus matchup this week against the Miami Dolphins. This is a team that Allen has had a great deal of success against in his career and has averaged 247.3 passing yards and three total touchdowns in seven games.
Earlier this season against the Dolphins, Josh Allen had a quiet game with 179 passing yards and two touchdowns but wasn’t asked to do much in a game the Bills dominated and won 35-0.
Meanwhile, the Dolphins defense has struggled to slow down opposing quarterbacks as they have allowed on average 346.25 passing yards per game over the past four weeks. They have given up 10 passing touchdowns and only one interception.
According to NFL.com, they are allowing the third-most fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks and when considering those quarterbacks have included Indianapolis Colts’ Carson Wentz, Jacksonville Jaguars’ Trevor Lawrence, and Atlanta Falcons’ Matt Ryan, this feels like a great chance for a big game from Josh Allen.
Josh Allen is a must-start in Week 8 against the Miami Dolphins
On paper, this looks like a great matchup for Josh Allen against a very beatable defense. The biggest concern is whether or not the Dolphins can score enough to keep this game close.
If the game goes the way it did back in Week 2, it could end up being a disappointing game for the Buffalo Bills quarterback. The Bills may not need much from Allen and this can limit his fantasy output this week.
