‘Defensive back Cam Lewis stepped in last week to replace the injured Johnson and fared well, finishing with 9 total and 7 solo tackles. He will be asked again to defend a vaunted Dolphins passing and rushing attack.’

Encouraged/worried: Bills offensive/defensive adjustments impress, concerns on STs
‘The Dolphins love to attack over the middle of the field with wide receivers Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle. It will be tough for Buffalo’s defense to come away with stops as long as Johnson remains on the sidelines.’
Bills, Dolphins set to renew a rivalry built on quest for AFC East supremacy
‘The Bills are four-time reigning AFC East champions, with a 11-2 record against the Dolphins since Josh Allen entered the NFL in 2018 and a 13-2 mark since Sean McDermott became coach in 2017. Eight of those games have been decided by one score, while the Bills knocked Miami out of playoff contention with a 56-26 win in the 2020 regular-season finale, won in the playoffs in 2022 and captured the AFC East in the final regular season game last year.’
Four Downs: Bills-Dolphins comes down to the more explosive offense
‘Allen only threw 23 passes against the Cardinals as the Bills relied heavily upon its ground game. The Bills didn’t need to throw often, though, as they racked up 352 yards of total offense on 6.1 yards per play. But against a Dolphins team that can put points on the scoreboard in a hurry, the Bills will likely to need to utilize Allen’s arm a little more often. Arizona bracketed tight end Dalton Kincaid, limiting him to one catch for 11 yards on two targets.’

‘The Bills struggled in the intermediate portion of the field against the Cardinals. The Cardinals had seven rushing first downs and were 7-of-13 on third down, but Buffalo’s cornerback tandem of Rasul Douglas and Christian Benford only allowed a combined two catches. What does that tell you? Arizona was eating underneath. The Dolphins led the NFL in yards after the catch in Week 1 with 236 – the Chiefs were second with 190. Buffalo has to clamp down underneath to prevent short receptions from becoming big gains.’
