Miami Dolphins vs. Buffalo Bills DFS Start ‘Em Sit ‘Em | Week 3
The lights are on at Highmark Stadium in Orchard Park, NY, as the Buffalo Bills (2–0) host the Miami Dolphins (0–2) in a high-stakes AFC East showdown. This Week 3 clash kicks off Thursday, September 18, at 8:15 p.m. ET, streaming exclusively on Prime Video. The Bills enter the game riding high, with quarterback Josh Allen leading a potent offense that ranks among the league’s best. Buffalo’s defense has also been dominant, allowing just 154 total yards in Week 2. Meanwhile, Miami is searching for answers after a rocky start to the season. Quarterback Tua Tagovailoa and star wideouts Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle will need to ignite the offense to avoid a dreaded 0–3 start: a mark that historically spells playoff doom. With Buffalo favored by 11.5 points, the Dolphins face an uphill battle, but divisional games often defy expectations. Can Miami pull off a primetime upset, or will the Bills continue their march toward AFC supremacy? Lock of the Game James Cook Buffalo Bills VS. Miami Dolphins (0-2) James Cook against the Miami Dolphins is in a smash spot, at $6.6K on DraftKings and $17.4K on FanDuel. The last few matchups, he’s been dominant against their AFC East rival, either through the ground with multiple touchdowns or as a receiver with at least five catches. Allen is coming off a dud of a game fantasy-wise (with a broken nose) and could rely on the run game to close this one out. Start ‘Em De’Von Achane Miami Dolphins AT Buffalo Bills (2-0) With injuries to the Bills’ defense, De’Von Achane is also a smash start as well at $6.8K on DraftKings and $18.3K on FanDuel. Achane has had success against Buffalo, and despite the Fins’ rough start, he’s been the shining light in their first two games as a receiver and on the ground. Either he or Cook is a must-start in this game, or put both in the same lineup. Tyreek Hill Miami Dolphins AT Buffalo Bills (2-0) This could apply to Jaylen Waddle, who is active coming off a shoulder injury, but based on past matchups, Miami and Buffalo games are normally high scoring. With both defenses not being 100% due to injuries, expect points, whether that is the Bills dominating or the Dolphins having garbage time. The Bills’ secondary could have trouble with Hill, so his $16.5K on FanDuel and $6.7K on DraftKings as a slate breaker over Waddle despite the discount. Sit ‘Em Dalton Kincaid Buffalo Bills VS. Miami Dolphins (0-2) The Bills rotate Dawson Knox in way too much for Dalton Kincaid to be a safe start at $4K on DraftKings and $9.9K FanDuel. Although he can catch a touchdown and make his fantasy day off of that, I would target someone like Khalil Shakir to have a higher floor for a bit more cost. Keon Coleman Buffalo Bills VS. Miami Dolphins (0-2) Keon Coleman is in a similar boat with Kincaid as a volatile boom-bust pass-catcher in Buffalo, priced at $12K on FanDuel and $5.3K on DraftKings. While he boomed in Week 1, the young receiver underdelivered massively in Week 2 due to the game script. With Josh Palmer and Elijah Moore also involved, I am not sure if Coleman will be the top target even if this game becomes a shootout. Fade of the Game Julian Hill/ Tanner Connor Miami Dolphins AT Buffalo Bills (2-0) Even at just $2.5K on DraftKings and Fanduel ($1.8K- Julian Hill, $2.4K- Tanner Connor), don’t start any of the Miami Dolphins tight ends. Julian Hill has no receptions or targets this season, and Tanner Connor just had his first four-target game in Week 2, catching just two, but had none in Week 1.
Cleveland Browns may be without a Pro Bowler against the Packers, and Green Bay suffers legit scare on Thursday
The Cleveland Browns have their attention on the Green Bay Packers with their first NFC opponent coming to town in Week 3. Cleveland opened the season with two AFC North losses against the Cincinnati Bengals and Baltimore Ravens and will now look to get right against perhaps the league’s best team. Green Bay has had the best defense this season through two games the league has and they bring a good quarterback with Jordan Love. Cleveland looks like they’ll get RT Jack Conklin back this week against the Packers, while DT Mike Hall did not participate on Thursday as part of his plan returning from the knee injury. It could be another week before the former second-round pick is out there. Joel Bitonio has not practiced yet this week with a back injury and tomorrow will tell whether or not he will be able to play against the Packers. Returner DeAndre Carter returned to practice for the Browns on Thursday from concussion protocol. The Packers suffer scare with one of their offensive stars Tucker Kraft is one of the league's more underrated tight ends and he suffered a knee tweak at practice on Thursday that was a scare, but he is expected to be fine. The star tight end had 124 yards and a touchdown against the Washington Commanders last week and will be a major weapon that the Packers and Love will look to target. Cleveland’s defense is allowing 146 passing yards per game through two games, which is third in the NFL. The Browns' offense will have to give the defense a chance to stay in this one at home. If Cleveland doesn’t have Bitonio against the Packers, they’ll be turning to backup offensive lineman Tevin Jenkins. Cleveland’s defensive front has been maybe the best in the NFL through the first two games, so they’ll only benefit when they put Hall’s interior rushing ability into the mix. It just may be too early for that to happen in Week 3 against Green Bay. window.addEventListener('message', function (event) {if (event.data.totalpoll event.data.totalpoll.action === 'resizeHeight') {document.querySelector('#totalpoll-iframe-424').height = event.data.totalpoll.value;}}, false);document.querySelector('#totalpoll-iframe-424').contentWindow.postMessage({totalpoll: {action: 'requestHeight'}}, '*');
Concerning report emerges about Capitals star Alexander Ovechkin's health
The Washington Capitals began their first day of training camp with an injury scare, as star left winger Alexander Ovechkin left practice early with a lower-body injury. Alexander Ovechkin addresses the media It wasn't immediately clear if the injury affected the same leg that Ovechkin broke last year, when a fractured fibula cost the Capitals captain 16 games. The injury was not severe enough to restrict Ovechkin from speaking to reporters following Thursday's practice. Per NHL.com's Tom Gulitti, Ovechkin sounded "unconcerned" about his lower-body injury, but he added that the Capitals captain might not skate on Friday when training camp resumes. Gulitti added that Washington head coach Spencer Carbery called the decision "precautionary" to take Ovechkin off the ice. Ovechkin, who turned 40 on Wednesday, enters the 2025 season as the NHL's all-time leading goal-scorer with 897 tallies. When asked if he is approaching this season as if it would be his last, Ovechkin said he didn't know. Ovechkin is also the NHL's all-time leader in regular-season power-play goals (326), game-winning goals (136) and shots on net (6,864). Depending on the severity of this injury, Capitals fans may have to wait to watch Ovechkin continue padding those totals and try to lead the Caps to their second Stanley Cup.
Packers TE Tucker Kraft (knee) uncertain for Week 3
Green Bay tight end Tucker Kraft has not missed a game since the Packers drafted him in the third round in 2023, but a knee injury may sideline the team's leading receiver on Sunday against the host Cleveland Browns. Kraft, 24, was added to the injury report after Thursday's practice and was getting looked at to determine the extent of the injury, according to multiple media reports. Per the reports, the Packers believe that he will not miss significant time. Green Bay (2-0) already is without a pair of wide receivers, leaving quarterback Jordan Love without key pieces of the passing game. Jayden Reed could return this season after breaking his collarbone last week against Washington and also undergoing foot surgery for a preseason injury. Christian Watson remains out after ACL surgery in January and is on the physically unable to perform list. Kraft, who posted 50 receptions for 707 yards and seven touchdowns while playing all 17 regular-season games in 2024, leads Green Bay this season with eight grabs for 140 yards and a pair of scores. Last Thursday, he notched his first 100-yard game with six catches for 124 yards and a score in a 27-18 home win over the Commanders. In his third NFL season, the native of Timber Lake, S.D., has compiled 89 receptions for 1,202 yards and 11 touchdowns in 36 regular-season games. Kraft also has 10 catches for 50 yards and one TD in three playoff games (all starts).
