Bills to Win Crucial AFC East Showdown

Best Bet:

3 Pts on Bills -3 Handicap to beat Dolphins Evs (Sky Bet)

Week 8 in the NFL season brought us some great games, with the Bengals rolling out to a 7-0 record and finally we saw a loss for the now 6-1 Packers who fell against the perfect Broncos. The Packers have another tough game this week against a strong Panthers team in what looks to be the marquee matchup. Another game has caught our attention this week however with the Dolphins travelling to the Bills in a crucial AFC East matchup. Both of these sides sit at 3-4 in their division and a loss would arguably all but end their seasons. On the other hand a win keeps the postseason dream alive for either team so the stakes are massive!

Our Tip:

3 Pts on Bills -3 Handicap to beat Dolphins Evs (Sky Bet)

As we said above this game all but eliminates whoever loses from the playoff race. Both of these teams have underachieved this year, and will be looking to get their seasons back on track. We like the Bills to get the job done on the handicap for a number of reasons.

The Bills are undoubtedly in better shape than they were prior to their last game. They are coming off a bye week and it looks like Taylor and Watkins should return for them against the Dolphins. They will be going in to this game confident as the sides have already met once this season and the Bills rolled out to a huge win.

The Dolphins on the other hand are coming off a big loss against the Patriots, in what was the first loss for their new interim coach Dan Campbell. Tannehill had a lot of trouble throwing the ball in this match, and the running game was also poor. The Dolphins also have a number of fresh injury concerns which will impact their starting line-up for this one.

We feel that everything is pointing towards a Bills win. The Bills are the better team and given all the points mentioned above, they should roll out comfortable victors.
