The Buffalo Bills re-took control of what still looks certain to be a tight AFC East race with an emphatic 48-20 throttling of the Miami Dolphins at Highmark Stadium in Orchard Park on Sunday. The Bills are now 3-1 on the season and in first place in the division, thanks to their head-to-head tiebreaker over the now 3-1 Dolphins.
Miami came into the game riding the high of a 50-point victory in Week 3, and as the lone remaining unbeaten team in the AFC. They ran into a buzzsaw on Sunday, however, with the Bills going blow-for-blow with the Dolphins’ high-octane offense early, then flipping the game script with key defensive plays in the second quarter to open up a 17-point halftime lead.
