Today at 1:00 p.m. ET the Miami Dolphins (1-0), riding high after beating the New England Patriots in Week 1, will try to take their winning ways on the road to Buffalo against the Bills (1-0), who wrecked many suicide pools by upsetting the Bears.

The Dolphins earned their victory largely thanks to the work of a running back tandem consisting of Lamar Miller and Knowshon Moreno. The latter shocked the NFL with a brilliant season as the lead back for the Denver Broncos, but he was expected to tail off once leaving the comforts of a Peyton Manning offense.
Moreno was dogged by reports of being out of shape in training camp as well, but he proved to be in fine condition in Week 1. Moreno torched the Patriots defense with a 24-carry, 134-yard performance that included a rushing touchdown.
"Did you see that man out there?" center Samson Satele said. "He's a crazy dude. You give him a little crease and away he goes."
The Bills team they'll be up against features a potent rushing attack also, led by a healthy and revitalized C.J. Spiller who is complemented by Fred Jackson. In addition, quarterback EJ Manuel is a threat to run at any time-he hit paydirt for his first rushing touchdown of 2014 last week.
The Bills have had their off-field distractions this offseason-owner Ralph Wilson passed away in March and rumors of relocation were the dominant storyline throughout their training camp. Buffalo Sabres owner Terry Pegula has purchased the team though, and the franchise is remaining in Buffalo.
"It was a great statement win for us to put all that stuff behind and focus on the season," Jackson said.
