‘”We went to Miami last year. It was the hottest game ever, like 95 degrees,” Allen recalled. “The whole stadium was packed with Bills fans. All the bars and hotels nearby were also full of fans. Even walking through the streets of downtown Miami and even Walmart there were fans. It was amazing to see how many fans traveled.”‘

Opinion: Capaccio: Bills at Dolphins: Sal’s keys, notes and stats
‘The Dolphins have lost arguably their top two pass rushers to injuries over the last month and a half. Jaelan Phillips and Bradley Chubb had combined for 17.5 sacks on the season. Miami still has Zach Sieler and Christian Wilkins, but they may have to generate more pressure through blitzing, and the Bills can concentrate more on those two players on passing downs. When those times, come up, Buffalo should have a little more breathing room to throw the ball, and needs to take advantage of that.’
