Bills, Dolphins agree: Their recent history doesn’t matter

MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. — Dan Marino was 28 when the Buffalo Bills last were in the throes of enjoying such a one-sided series against the Miami Dolphins. The Bills beat the Dolphins six straight times during that run from 1987 through 1989, a streak they’ll try to match on Sunday when the AFC East rivals face off. “Nah.” There was a consistency in the themes coming from the respective team camps this week when players and coaches were asked about the Bills’ 56-26 win back in January, the second-biggest margin of victory Buffalo has ever enjoyed against the Dolphins. “It didn’t go so well,” Dolphins coach Brian Flores said, offering an early front-runner in the race for understatement of the year. “Very frustrating, but we also know this is a great opportunity to learn quite a bit.” RESPECT Dolphins CB Xavien Howard, who had the forced fumble and recovery that sealed Miami’s Week 1 win over New England, had high praise this week for Bills CB Tre’Davious White.
