Why consider the Bills NFL Week 17 Odds?
Why bet on the Bills in this regular season finale? Well, because they’re completely desperate and really, a better team than the Miami Dolphins. Buffalo (8-6 ATS) needs a win to keep their playoff hopes alive, even if they do also need a loss by the Ravens against the Bengals (not gonna’ happen) or losses by both, the Chargers and Titans. “If we don’t win, it’s not going to matter,” Bills coach Sean McDermott said of his team’s long-shot playoff hopes. “We need to focus on the task at hand.” Buffalo got completely smacked around in their humbling 37-16 road loss against New England last weekend. Still, veteran quarterback Tyrod Taylor has had a solid campaign by completing 62.1 percent of his passes for 2,595 yards with 13 touchdowns and four interceptions despite McDermott’s bone-headed decision to bench him in favor of rookie Nathan Peterman in Week 11. Running back McCoy has had another fantastic season by rushing for 1,128 yards and six touchdowns. The Bills are averaging just 18.7 points per game while allowing 22.9 points per game defensively.Team Statistics

Why consider the Dolphins NFL Week 17 Odds?
Why bet on the Dolphins in their Week 17 matchup against their longtime AFC East division rivals? Well, because they’re so wildly unpredictable that they beat the New England Patriots two weeks ago and could probably beat – or lose – to anyone this season. Miami (5-8 ATS) has lost two straight and seven of their last nine games overall, including their embarrassing 29-13 Week 16 loss to Kansas City in which there were some sideline fireworks between star wide receiver Jarvis Landry and head coach Adam Gase. “I wasn’t yelling at Adam,” Landry told The Miami Herald. “I was talking to Adam.”
For his part, Gase seemed unconcerned.
“It’s part of the game — it just happens,” Gase said. “It’s not the first time.”
Jay Cutler is completing 62.1 percent of his passes for 2,660 yards with 19 touchdown passes, but he’s also tossed a costly 14 interceptions while going an uninspiring 6-7 as Miami’s starter this season. Cutler was signed to a one-year deal to replace starter Ryan Tannehill after he suffered a season-ending injury in the preseason. Miami is averaging just 17.7 points per game while allowing 24.7 points per game defensively.
