AI RECAPIn a commanding performance, the Buffalo Bills topped the Miami Dolphins 42-14 in Week 11 of the 2026 season, solidifying their playoff positioning. The win not only boosts the Bills' confidence but also serves as a pivotal moment in their quest for a strong postseason run.
Josh Allen was the star of the evening, throwing for an impressive 397 yards and four touchdowns, showcasing his ability to slice through the Dolphins' defense. Khalil Shakir emerged as his favorite target, racking up 168 receiving yards and consistently finding himself open downfield. On the ground, De'Von Achane put up a respectable 78 rushing yards for Miami, but it wasn't enough to keep pace with the Bills' offensive onslaught.
Buffalo's defense played a crucial role in the victory, highlighted by Jordan Hancock's team-leading seven tackles and Landon Jackson's sack, which helped disrupt Miami's rhythm. The turning point came in the second quarter when the Bills scored back-to-back touchdowns, effectively putting the game out of reach. With this dominant display, the Bills sent a strong message to the rest of the league.
