The Buffalo Bills (4-1) return home to face the Miami Dolphins (0-5) at 1 p.m. Sunday in a Week 7 clash, their first of three straight home games coming out of the bye week.
While the Bills are alone in second place in the AFC, a match-up against the winless Dolphins and former Bills’ quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick isn’t moving the national needle.
The contest will be the featured national game among the early games only for fans living in the Bills’ and Dolphins’ primary markets.
CBS’ No. 5 broadcasting team of Andrew Catalon (play-by-play) and former Bill James Lofton (analyst) will handle the Bills/Dolphins game.
