Bills vs. Dolphins
Not much has gone right of the Buffalo Bills so far this year in football odds. The signing of Terrell Owens in the off season was a major bust. Naming Trent Edwards the starting QB has been a pro football odds failure. And even firing head coach Dick Jauron did little to improve the team’s winning pro football odds percentage. That’s why when the division rival Miami Dolphins travel to the tundra of Buffalo they’ll go back to South Beach with another notch in the win column and the Bills will find themselves 3-8.
Even with the loss of star RB Ronnie Brown the Dolphins found a way to beat a surging Panthers squad at home. The NFL betting reason of course was the team’s other stud RB, Ricky Williams who ran wild over the Carolina in the WildCat offense.
Passing wise the Dolphins have little to fear as they have the worst corps of receiving talent in the football odds. QB Chad Henne is young and given little responsibility in the Dolphins pedestrian passing game. But the Dolphins can and do run the ball and against a very poor defensive squad like the Bills this offense should have a field day.
On defense the Dolphins are also very good and get consistent pressure on the opposing QB, in this case Ryan Fitzpatrick. The pro football odds favor the Dolphins by three and a half points, which is probably a pretty accurate line. However, if you’re feeling gutsy you might want to pick Miami to cover the NFL football odds spread.
