Two longtime divisional rivals will clash on Thursday Night Football, when the defending AFC-champion Bills host the Dolphins to kick off Week 3 of the 2025 NFL season.
Reigning MVP Josh Allen and the Bills have picked up where they left off in 2024. They won an epic 41-40 opening-season battle with Lamar Jackson and the Ravens, then stomped the AFC East-rival Jets 30-10. This team means business.
The Dolphins, meanwhile, need to get going after starting the campaign 0-2. They looked miserable in Week 1 against the Colts but looked a lot better in a 33-27 loss to the Patriots in New England last weekend.
We've seen a lot of fun battles between these franchises, and this one might be no different. It's only on Prime, so keep reading to see how you can stream Bills vs. Dolphins for free without cable or an existing Amazon Prime subscription.
