It feels just like yesterday we watched the Buffalo Bills and Miami Dolphins square off in Week 3 in Orchard Park. Now, the Bills and Dolphins will be facing each other again but this time in Miami. Buffalo will be looking to improve to 7-2 while the Dolphins will just be looking to stay somewhat relevant.
The Dolphins seem to always struggle against the Bills, especially given the fact that Josh Allen seems to always be playing at his best against Miami, which I’m sure Dolphins fans are not fans of.
While the Dolphins have been weak against Allen, this could be one of those games where everyone else except for Allen shines.
Bold predictions for Bills vs. Dolphins in Week 10
Dalton Kincaid has his best game as a Bill
Dalton Kincaid has been having a solid year this season for the Bills, and he will look to continue that against Miami. He is on pace to surpass his season high in receiving yards (currently has 411 yards) and he’s already doubled his touchdowns from the previous two seasons.
He’s gone for over 100 yards in two of his last three games and he started the momentum last week for the Bills in their victory over the Chiefs. Buffalo’s passing game has taken some heat this season but Kincaid has been a bright spot for them. This week against Miami, he could easily have himself another great game and potentially his best game as a pro.
James Cook averages over 7 yards per carry
While James Cook has popped up on the injury list with an ankle injury, he has a chance at playing and if he does, it could be very possible to see him run wild all over Miami. Cook is averaging just under six yards per carry this season and has rushed for 330 yards over the past two games.
If he is good to go on Sunday, the Bills might find themselves ahead of Miami and rather than throwing it, that’s where the rushing attack can take the lead. Last year in Miami, Cook ran for 78 yards and had three total touchdowns. Let’s hope he can be just as productive if not more if he’s good to go.
Maxwell Hairston gets his second consecutive interception
The first-round rookie has been very impressive the last two games which included his first career interception on Patrick Mahomes that helped seal the deal against the Chiefs last Sunday. Hairston, who started out the season on IR due to a knee injury before the preseason, has been phenomenal so far. Can he keep it up against Tua Tagovailoa. I’m predicting he picks off Tua to get his second consecutive interception in three games.
Mitch Trubisky and the backups play in the 4th quarter
There have been plenty of times where the Bills have been so dominant against an opponent and then the backups come in to finish out the game. At one point, Mitch Trubisky was a busy backup quarterback because of how dominant Allen and the starters have been.
If the Bills handle Miami early on and don’t allow them to get any momentum, it’s highly likely that Trubisky and co. will be finishing out the game for the Bills.
