The Week 18 game between the Miami Dolphins and the Buffalo Bills will be the biggest match of the weekend.
The winner will take the AFC East crown and the No. 2 seed in the playoffs, while the Bills could miss the postseason entirely with a loss.
The last time these two teams faced off, the Bills decimated the Dolphins in a 48-20 beatdown in Buffalo.
This time around, Fox Sports analyst Skip Bayless thinks the result will be the same but that the score will be closer between the two sides.
“I respect Miami at Miami so I’m going to go higher score but I’m going to keep it close. I’m going to go 35-32 [in favor of Buffalo],” Bayless said. ” … But the point is: Buffalo has found itself.”

The Bills’ previous win over the Dolphins coupled with Buffalo’s recent success is the main catalyst for this prediction by Bayless.
They’re playing their best football at the right time of the season and are effectively playing their own playoff game here anyway.
Miami has a lot of incentive to win, as the No. 2 seed plays at home against a theoretically inferior opponent, but a loss wouldn’t end the Dolphins’ season, either.
Either way, this game will feature two high-powered offenses led by two great quarterbacks with a division title on the line.
No one could write a 2023 NFL regular season finale better than that.
