Buffalo Bills @ Cincinnati Bengals
Fresh off their bye week, the Buffalo Bills head to the state of Ohio to face off against the Cincinnati Bengals.
Although the Bengals have been disappointing this year, the team is still dangerous with AJ Green on the outside coupled with a strong running game.
"We aren't taking any team lightly," Luke Kuechly said. "We are one of the hunted teams now so we always need to be ready for a fight."
With seven regular season games remaining for the Bills, the team knows they are potentially set for a historic run for their franchise.
The team has been somewhat irrelevant since the 4-straight Super Bowl run in the '90's.
"I watch this team, and I see a lot of good in them," Hall of Famer Andre Reed said. "I just really hope they can close the deal and bring our fans a much-deserved ring."
WHAT TO WATCH FOR: Although there may be a loss or two still out there for this steady Bills team, we don't see this week as one of them. Look for Geno Atkins to be on a mission against his former team.
PREDICTION: Bills win 45-31
Miami Dolphins @ Los Angeles Rams
Quarterback Jared Goff has made plenty of headlines this week as the rookie signal-caller has pointed to this game, against the defending Super Bowl champions, as his chance to break out and show he deserved to be taken with the #1 pick in last year's draft.
"Home game, great crowd," Goff said. "And I expect to come out of this one with a W (win)."
Miami's top ranked rushing defense will certainly dare the Cal product to try to beat them through the air.
Although unlikely, it is not impossible that Goff and his receivers could have success against the Dolphins. Just two weeks ago, quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo neared the 500-yard passing mark as the 'Fins refused to alter their run-prevention strategy despite being torched through the skies.
WHAT TO WATCH FOR: Special Teams and defensive scores. The Dolphins have not scored on the defensive side of the football since week six. Previously, the team had scored on D in each previous game. For the Rams, the team typically has some sort of trick play up their sleeve and we expect the team to do the same Sunday.
PREDICTION: Dolphins win 33-13
