Bills vs Dolphins Week 9 Preview & Bold Predictions

Bills vs Dolphins Week 9 Preview & Bold Predictions

Author: Blue Wire November 1, 2024 Duration: 50:53

On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by Phinsider (SB Nation) blogger Marek Brave for a full Buffalo Bills vs Miami Dolphins preview, including keys to the game for each team as well as bold predictions and a final score pick that both guys picked exactly the same.

It's no secret that the Bills have completely owned the Dolphins in recent years. Sean McDermott is 14-2 vis Miami since taking over in 2017 and 5-1 specifically vs Mike McDaniel. Meanwhile, Josh Allen's 12-2 vs Miami including the playoffs with 34 touchdowns against just seven interceptions. Marek has plenty to say about Buffalo's domination from the other side of things.

Prior records against each other are based on the past, but the present Miami Dolphins are just 2-5 and in grave danger of being completely run out of the AFC east divisional race if not the playoffs all together by the end of Sunday. Marek talks about what's went wrong with Miami this season, keyed of course by the injury to quarterback Tua Tagovailoa suffered against Buffalo in Week two. There's been other issues and some of them are discussed, including the quirky act of the Dolphins head coach McDaniel wearing thin among some of the fan base and the disappointment that's come with former Bills safety Jordan Poyer joining the Dolphins this offseason.

Both guys offer their keys to the game for the respective teams they cover, with Patrick focused on the most obvious things like not letting the Tyreek Hill/Jaylen Waddle go crazy and the defensive front four making life uncomfortable for Tua. Marek pins Miami's hopes on being able to stop the Bills running game and Allen transforming into the turnover machine he's been at times in previous years.

They also have three bold predictions each and come up with the exact same final score prediction. That plus Marek, who's been in professional wrestling for more than 20 years talks about his career, which includes running a highly touted and well known wrestling academy with his partner, WWE superstar Seth Rollins. That and plenty more.
