    The Dolphins' Week 15 game against the Buffalo Bills at Highmark Stadium is among five designated before the season at TBD for either Saturday, Dec. 17 or Sunday, Dec. 18, and at this point it's easily the most attractive of the matchups. The NFL will take three of the five matchups and put them in three Saturday slots — 1 p.m., 4:15 and 8:30 p.m.

    The NFL will announce the Week 15 schedule at the conclusion of Week 13 — the Dolphins play at San Francisco on Dec. 4.

    Along with Miami at Buffalo, the other games not yet scheduled in Week 15 are Baltimore and Cleveland, Indianapolis at Minnesota, Atlanta at New Orleans, and the New York Giants at Washington.

    At this time, by record alone, the Dolphins-Bills matchup sure looks like the best one, considering it's the only one that features two teams currently with a winning record. And then if you factor in the national appeal of Josh Allen and the emerging national appeal of the Dolphins' high-flying passing game with Tua Tagovailoa, Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle, and you have a very strong leading candidate for that game.

    Playing at Buffalo on Saturday night, Dec. 17, would be quite the challenge for the Dolphins, not only because of the potential weather conditions but also because that game wraps up a three-game road trip and comes on a short week after the game at San Francisco.

    Another possibility is for the Dolphins-Bills game to be flexed out to the Sunday night spot in place of the currently scheduled New England at Las Vegas.

    The Patriots aren't typically a team that gets flexed out, but the Raiders season is going up in flames and the NFL might decide Miami-Buffalo is a much more desirable matchup that will attract more viewers.

    Its 99% likely that the game is on Saturday on national TV. Lets just hope its 1pm and not night time.

    You might have to drag out the VCR.

    If Josh Allen is gone for the season, I might consider going to this game.

    Good for you but not the team. The Sunday before they are in LA so that would be a short week and a cross country trip. I'd definitely prefer the Sunday.
