- The Dolphins are two games behind the Bills for the AFC East and have +700 odds entering week 15 to claim the division.
- The Dolphins are visiting the Bills on Saturday and are currently seven point underdogs for the matchup in Buffalo.
- A win for the Dolphins in Buffalo could give Miami momentum, which gives their +700 divisional odds more value than the +265 moneyline.
MIAMI – While they controlled the division earlier in the season, Miami has lost two straight games and currently trail the Buffalo Bills by two games for the AFC East. The Bills are looking to grab their third straight AFC East title, with the Dolphins not having won the division since the 2008 season.
Odds and Standings for AFC East Entering Week 15
Team | Divisional Odds | Record | Div. Record |
---|---|---|---|
Bills | -1200 | 10-3 | 2-2 |
Dolphins | +700 | 8-5 | 2-1 |
Jets | +10000 | 7-6 | 2-3 |
Patriots | +10000 | 6-6 | 2-2 |
With only four total games left for Buffalo and Miami during the regular season, the Dolphins are going to have to play their best football to reclaim the East against the Bills who have been the Super Bowl betting favorite for the majority of the 2022 season.
Dolphins Remaining Schedule
- Week 15 – Buffalo
- Week 16 – Green Bay
- Week 17 – New England
- Week 18 – New York (Jets)
If the Dolphins can pull off the upset in Buffalo, they will have to win one more game than the Bills afterward. The Dolphins already hold the tiebreaker against Buffalo and would hold onto it by sweeping their divisional rival.
Bills Remaining Schedule
- Week 15 – Miami
- Week 16 – Chicago
- Week 17 – Cincinnati
- Week 18 – New England
The Bills should not struggle against the Chicago Bears and have already handled the Patriots in New England this season. In order for Buffalo to give away the East, they would most likely have to lose week 15 against Miami and then again in week 17 to the Bengals.
Betting on Miami to Upset Buffalo for the Second Time
During the third week of the regular season, Miami defeated Buffalo by two points at home. The Bills were favored for that game by 5.5 points.
For their second matchup of the season, the Bills are seven point favorites and will be hosting the Dolphins this time. Out of their three losses on the season, the Bills have only lost one game when playing at home in 2022.
The Dolphins currently have +265 odds to win the matchup in Buffalo but winning the game could give them the momentum to steal the East with the tiebreaker. Miami’s +700 odds could be more valuable to win the East, rather than betting on the single moneyline in Buffalo this week.
