The two teams last met in Week 4 when the Bills won 48-20. Miami has already punched its playoff ticket and now is the only thing that stands in the way of a fourth straight AFC East title for Buffalo. A win for Buffalo would not only mean the AFC East crown, but the second seed behind Baltimore in the team's fifth straight playoff appearance.
If the Bills lose in Miami, they can still clinch a playoff spot if either the Jacksonville Jaguars or the Pittsburgh Steelers lose, or the Indianapolis Colts and Houston Texans tie. A Bills-Dolphins tie would also clinch a playoff berth for Buffalo.
