The Bills walk away from this game 7-2 in exciting fashion. On a game-winning drive, Tyler Bass capped it off with a 61-yard field goal to go up by three points and seal the win. The Bills have consistently found ways to win close games and power through adversity.
Josh Allen finished the game throwing 25/39 for 235 yards in the air. Ray Davis‘s 63-yard catch-and-run was the longest play of the day and one of Allen’s three throwing touchdowns. Khalil Shakir also had multiple strong plays that put the Bills in a winning position.
While the Bills defense struggled at times to keep up with the speed of Miami, the Buffalo offense fought back even stronger to come away with the big win. Even without Amari Cooper, the Bills were able to move the ball with semi-consistency on offense and locked up the Dolphins on defense when it mattered most.
Unfortunately, Keon Coleman did take a hit to the head by Jordan Poyer towards the end of the game. While the play did set up the Bills game-winning possession, Coleman’s injury should be concerning for this Bills team.

Hello everyone! Evan here, and I’ll be taking you through another Bills game day coverage.
Today, we see the season rematch between the Buffalo Bills and the Miami Dolphins. These teams last faced in Week 2, where the Bills dominated in a 31-10 win in Miami.
In their last meeting, the Bills defense forced three interceptions on Miami quarterback Tua Tagovailoa. This matchup also saw Tagovailoa leave the game with a concussion after a collision with Bills safety Damar Hamlin. Since then, the Dolphins have been on a downward spiral, currently at a 2-5 record. While the Miami quarterback has returned from concussion protocol, the Dolphins have seen plenty of struggles.
Another notable for today’s game is the return of Von Miller who received a 4-game suspension earlier in the season. Miller had three sacks in three games to start the season.
The Bills will be without the newly acquired wide receiver Amari Cooper, who has a wrist injury. Corner Christian Benford is also out, meaning Kaiir Elam will get the start at cornerback. Dolphins safety Jevon Holland is also out for today’s game.
