Bill Speros writes: "The Bills clinched their playoff berth by beating the Dolphins and Tua 32-29 in the snow of Western New York on December 18. The Bills turned Damar Hamlin’s injury and recovery into a Disney movie against New England in Week 18. The Bills scored on the opening kickoff and would never trail. It’s unlikely Tagovailoa will be cleared to play this week given his status in concussion protocol. Teddy Bridgewater is questionable with an injured finger. The Bills have won eight of nine against Miami. The Bills could well pitch a shutout given Miami’s QB situation."

Vinnie Iyer writes: "The Dolphins could be starting any one of their three quarterbacks. There's no commitment to Tua Tagovailoa returning from a concussion. Teddy Bridgewater has a finger injury. Rookie Skylar Thompson compresses the entire passing game. Here's feeling that Tagovailoa will be cleared to go to make their offense more competitive. The problem, however, will be the defense containing Josh Allen's passing, along with the Bills' overall rushing attack."

It writes: "The Bills come into this one as 10 point favorites. If Tua can’t go, they probably clear that mark. The Dolphins just have no offense without him. If Tua can go then this is going to be one of the most competitive games of the week. With Tua not a guarantee to go though, have to take the Bills here."

CBS Sports: Bills 30, Dolphins 23

John Breech writes: "The crazy thing is that I think the Dolphins are actually going to be able to run the ball, but that being said, I only have one rule when it comes to picking playoff games and that rule is that if I don't know who your starting quarterback is going to be, then I can't pick your team to win. No matter who the Dolphins throw out there on Sunday, that QB won't be better than Josh Allen."

Sporting News: Bills 34, Dolphins 20

Bill Bender writes: "The Bills are heavy favorites, and that is due in large because of Miami's quarterback situation. Will it be Tua Tagovailoa – who has missed the last two games because of a second concussion? Teddy Bridgewater also was injured, and it could be Skylar Thompson – who has a 57.1% completion percentage in limited action. That is asking a lot on the road against Buffalo, which was 7-1 at home in the regular season. Josh Allen averaged 352 passing yards with seven TDs and no interceptions against the Dolphins in two regular-season meetings."
