NFL Week 11 Predictions: Why Dolphins Will Ruin the Bills' Playoff Hopes

The Miami Dolphins will destroy the Buffalo Bills' playoff hopes on Sunday with a convincing win at home and continue the struggles of overrated Bills quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick.

Since signing a new six-year, $59 million contract this season, Fitzpatrick has thrown just two touchdowns with five interceptions. He's also completing just 56.5 percent of his passes during that span.

Fitzpatrick has really struggled since a massive Week 3 win against the New England Patriots. In his last six games, Fitzpatrick has thrown for 200 yards or more just twice.

That's terrible for a quarterback making big money on a team that had a real shot at making the playoffs.

The Bills have crumbled under the pressure of playoff hopes in Buffalo; the team has not made the postseason since 1999.

Miami, on the other hand, is trying to give the Bills their third straight loss while at the same time win their third consecutive game.

Dolphins running back Reggie Bush has been on fire lately, and the Bills will not stop him on Sunday. Buffalo allows 125.4 rushing yards per game, and Bush has the speed and athleticism to dominate the Buffalo linebackers.

"The first seven games we were kind of in disarray," said Reggie Bush [via CBS Sports], who rushed for two TDs on Sunday and is in the midst of the best three-game rushing stretch of his career with 242 yards. "We were trying to find our identity. The difference now is we're playing 60 minutes and finishing at the end of games."

The Dolphins have outscored their opponents 27-3 in the second half the last two weeks, while the Bills have been outscored 40-11 in the second half the past few weeks.

The difference in being able to close out games and execute well in the fourth quarter will be the difference for the Dolphins on Sunday.

Their effective running game will allow them to control the clock and being able to make the plays needed to win at the end will give Miami its third straight win and end the Bills' playoff dreams.

Miami has played well in a lot of games this season and are better than their record indicates, and Buffalo is facing them at the wrong place and wrong time in Week 11.
