Week 3 of the 2022 NFL season is here, and it is time for the Miami Dolphins to host the Buffalo Bills. Both teams have started the year 2-0 and now look to remain undefeated with an AFC East showdown. Buffalo has beaten the Dolphins seven straight times ahead of today’s game, including last year’s 35-0 win in Miami during Week 2. The Dolphins are looking to pull off the upset and come away with the streak-snapping win.

Last week, the Bills demolished the Tennessee Titans 41-7 and, cliche as it is, it was not even that close. Buffalo pulled their starters late in the third quarter, playing backups for the entire final period as they cruised to the victory. The win backed up a 31-10 victory in Week 1 over the Los Angeles Rams. In two weeks, the Bills beat the defending Super Bowl champion Rams and crushed the 2021 top seed in the AFC playoffs Titans. They come into Week 3 with the team in full stride.

They are, however, going to be playing with a banged-up defense. The team placed safety Micah Hyde on injured reserve on Saturday, ending his season. They also are not expected to have four other defensive starters available for the game.

Miami beat the New England Patriots in Week 1, then came back from a 21-point deficit in the fourth quarter last week to beat the Baltimore Ravens 42-38. Suddenly, the Dolphins have been thrust into the national conversation for the week, but now they have to back it up with a strong performance against a buzzsaw.

The Bills are listed as 4.5-point favorites as of Sunday morning, according to DraftKings Sportsbook. The total score is set at 53.5 points.
