Key Factors

Favors Over

The Miami Dolphins will be forced to use backup quarterback Skylar Thompson in this contest, which usually means fewer pass attempts and more rush attempts.
The Dolphins are a giant 13.5-point underdog in this week's contest, which points towards an extreme passing game script.
THE BLITZ projects the Miami Dolphins to be the 3rd-most pass-centric offense among all teams this week with a 64.3% pass rate, given their underlying tendencies and matchup dynamics.
THE BLITZ projects this game to have the 2nd-least plays run out of all the games this week at 128.4 plays, accounting for the tendencies of each team and game dynamics.
The weather report calls for 3-mph wind in this game. Low wind typically means increased pass volume, increased TD potential, and increased passing efficiency.

Favors Under

The Miami Dolphins will have a new play-caller this season in head coach Mike McDaniel, and THE BLITZ projects their pass/run mix to tilt 1.7% more towards rushing than it did last season (context-neutralized).
The Miami Dolphins have run the least plays in football this year, averaging a measly 54.1 plays per game.
The Miami Dolphins offensive line grades out as the 5th-worst in the league this year in protecting the QB, which has a negative effect on all pass game metrics across the board.
The Buffalo Bills pass defense has displayed good efficiency this year, giving up 7.31 yards-per-target: the 7th-least in the NFL.
The Buffalo Bills defense has performed very well when opposing pass-catchers have gotten into space, allowing an average of 4.23 yards-after-the-catch this year: the 4th-least in the NFL.
