What to watch for: Bills-Dolphins

‘Simply put, the Bills offense just hasn’t scored enough points, and last week against the Cleveland Browns it finally came back to bite them.’

WKBW sports staff gives their Week 11 Bills vs. Dolphins predictions

‘It’s time for the Bills to make a statement. So many times this year they’ve squeaked out wins or fallen just short. Sunday needs to be different. When they step onto the field against the Miami Dolphins the Bills need to dominate from start to finish, proving they truly are a playoff team.’

Forcing turnovers critical for Bills in Miami

‘“If you keep playing aggressive and try and go hit somebody and blow things up every play, eventually good things will happen,” added defensive end Trent Murphy. “So, it’s just trying to be aggressive within the scheme of our defense is where the balance is so, I think that’s kind of what our focus is.”’

BKL – Week 11 Predictions: Bills at Dolphins

‘Had it not been for an interception and forced fumble by Tre’Davious White when the Bills and Dolphins met a month ago, there’s a good chance it would be Miami going for the season sweep over their AFC East foes in Week 11.’

‘The 6-3 Bills are heading south to Miami this weekend for another rendezvous with the ‘Fins. An important matchup for the Bills, who are looking to continue stacking conference wins, the game is extra meaningful for a handful of players with connections to South Florida, including running backs Frank Gore and Devin Singletary. For Gore, the trip marks his first time playing on Miami’s turf since he was wearing a Dolphins uniform. It’s also a homecoming.’

Bills should treat Dolphins as inferior as they are

‘The Bills hardly look as impressive as their 6-3 record might indicate. And even though it didn’t happen during the earlier meeting at New Era Field, they still should be expected to take command from the start and show, once and for all, they’re capable of dominating an inferior opponent.

Fitz’s energy rejuvenated the Dolphins

‘“(I’m) giving guys plenty of chances in the passing game getting us into the right play and doing all of those things that a quarterback needs to do; but first and foremost, the energy and the confidence that these guys need to play with, I’m trying to do as best I can in that regard. We’ve really done a nice job the last few weeks in playing off each other and playing with confidence.”’

If Buffalo Bills DE Jerry Hughes can’t play Sunday vs. Miami Dolphins, here is the plan

‘Hughes suffered a groin injury during Thursday’s practice ahead of the Bills’ (6-3) 10th game of the season. He was held out of practice on Friday and is listed as questionable heading into the weekend. Bills coach Sean McDermott said he’s had a little bit of a groin issue before Thursday’s practice that he’s been dealing with but it “flared up” yesterday.’

McDermott: I want our team playing fast

‘”All of us together, coaches and players, let’s do what we’ve got to do, do it how we normally do it and be decisive. It’s not getting to playing hesitant. When you play this game, because it is an aggressive game, it’s a contact sport – if you hesitate, you lose in most situations. So, I want our team playing fast, playing physical and playing aggressive with great decisiveness and clarity around what’s expected on each play in their roles, in particular.”‘
