Finals Dolphins vs Bills Injury Reports
The Dolphins will be without starting cornerback Storm Duck and starting strong safety Ifeatu Melifonwu. Two of the starters on their D-line are also questionable – Chop Robinson and Benito Jones – which could be a huge problem against a Buffalo team that sits third in the NFL in run blocking at PFF.
The Bills will be without both Matt Milano and Ed Oliver. Milano is second on the team in tackles with nine through two games. Oliver racked up six tackles and a sack in Week 1 against the Ravens before missing Week 2 with the same ankle injury that continues to plague him.
Taron Johnson is the biggest concern in the Buffalo secondary. The 2023 second-team All-Pro is officially questionable with a quad injury. Like Oliver, Johnson played in Buffalo’s epic Week 1 comeback against Baltimore (41-40) and sat out the Week 2 rout of the Jets (30-10). He currently sits 17th among cornerbacks in PFF’s coverage rankings.

The Bills were 12.5-point favorites in the opening NFL Week 3 odds and the spread has remained fairly constant at most sportsbooks over the course of the week.
MIA Dolphins vs BUF Bills Public-Betting Splits for TNF
The Bills are getting a massive 97% of moneyline handle and moneyline wagers, with much of that likely coming from parlays. The Bills are no longer than -840 as of Thursday afternoon, which is basically unbettable as a single wager.
The ATS splits are narrower but still favor the Bills. Buffalo has attracted 63% of ATS handle and 72% of ATS bets so far.
The over/under splits are perhaps the most interesting: 82% of the game-total wager are on the under, yet 56% of the game-total handle is on the over. Often, that’s a sign that sharps are backing the over with larger wagers, though that’s far from a guarantee.
