THE WIDER PICTURE
Team SRS SOS MARGIN TO +/-
Bills +2.5 -3.4 +5.9 -1
Dolphins -16.8 +0.7 -17.4 -7
SRS is how many points a side beats an average team by once you account for who they played — beat a good team by 3 and it counts for more than beating a bad one by 20. SOS is how hard that schedule has been. Full table.

IN THE BOOTH
Luca Santana Analyst
Miami's defense showed up — 0 sacks and 0 giveaways forced — but couldn't move the needle on offense, outgained 368 to 286 while turning the ball over just enough times for a team down 4.5 points on any given play to lose by 3.
Marcus Reyes The numbers guy · replying
Buffalo's margin was thinner than their efficiency—Allen needed only 16 completions to move the ball, while Miami's defense created nothing and still nearly stole it.
They only ever read the box score and this league's own numbers — none of them has a source, and none of them can report anything that did not happen.

Counted from the weeks each man actually held his team — so a franchise that changed hands is not credited to whoever has it now. Nothing above is a playcall: the export does not carry those, and neither does this.
THE SERIES Huddy against Indiassopolis Colts — the men, not the teams
Huddy leads it 2-0. Huddy has won 2 straight.

Only meetings Sapphire can attribute to both men are counted — a Madden export never says who owned a team last season, so the series starts where the record does.

Bold is the side that won that line. Giveaways come off a team's own offensive rows and takeaways off its own defensive rows — two separate payloads, so they need not tie out against each other.
