US EditionMike McDaniel Just Gave the Most Painfully Obvious Explanation for Why the Dolphins Keep Losing to the Bills
The Dolphins face a seven-game losing streak against the Bills and must improve focus and discipline to challenge Buffalo’s strong offense led by Josh Allen.
- On Sunday at Hard Rock Stadium, the Miami Dolphins host the Buffalo Bills, who are 6-2 and have won two straight, while Miami is on a seven-game losing streak after close losses of 31-21 and 30-27.
- Amid noisy roster and front-office developments, Miami needs focused practices as the Dolphins face internal noise from the general manager's departure, trade rumors and boos from the dwindling home crowd.
- De'Von Achane and Jaylen Waddle lead Miami's offense; Miami's run defense ranks 29th, allowing over 145 yards per game and eight of nine opponents to rush for more than 100 yards.
- Small execution details and discipline will shape the final result, as penalty control and edge pressure without Jaelan Phillips, former Dolphins edge rusher, traded to Philadelphia, challenge Miami under Mike McDaniel.
- Josh Allen and James Cook are the focal points Miami must limit to change season momentum; Allen has a 7-1 record with 22 touchdowns since 2022, while Cook rushed for 108 yards earlier this year.
