Current records: Buffalo 5-9; Miami 7-7

What to Know

Buffalo and Miami will round out the year against one another on Sunday at New Era Field at 1:00 p.m. Both teams took a loss in their last game, so they'll have plenty of motivation to get the 'W'.

Buffalo's holiday cheer might be a little lacking this year after getting coal in their stocking last Sunday. They came up short against New England, falling 12-24. If Buffalo were hoping to take revenge for the 6-25 defeat against New England the last time the teams met, then they were left disappointed.

Meanwhile, it looks like Miami must have gotten on Santa's naughty list since the squad didn't end up with the victory they were expected to receive last week. They took a 7-17 hit to the loss column at the hands of Jacksonville. The game was a 7-7 toss-up at halftime, but Miami were outplayed the rest of the way.

Buffalo are the favorite in this one, with an expected 5.5-point margin of victory. They may be expected to win, but bettors beware: they are only 0-2 against the spread when favored.

The last time the two teams met, Buffalo were within striking distance but couldn't close the gap, as they fell 17-21 to Miami. Maybe Buffalo will have more luck at home instead of on the road? Watch the match and check back on CBS Sports for all the details.
