Just announced: Buffalo Bills will play Miami Dolphins in prime time

According to a report by the typically highly accurate X account @NerdingonNFL, the Buffalo Bills will be hosting the Miami Dolphins at Highmark Stadium on Thursday, Sept. 18 to start Week 3 of the NFL schedule on Amazon Prime’s Thursday Night Football.

The Bills are expected to get a high number of prime time games and they could very well be awarded the maximum six. Playing the AFC East rivals at night makes perfect sense as it has long been one of the NFL’s intriguing rivalries.

Of course, it’s also a rivalry that has been dominated by the Bills since Josh Allen came to the team in 2018. Buffalo has won 13 of the 15 games including a AFC wild-card victory in January 2023, and Allen has played incredibly in almost every matchup.

In the 14 regular-season games, he has completed 316 of 477 passes for 3,737 yards with 37 touchdowns and eight interceptions, and he has added 647 yards rushing and five touchdowns. And in the lone playoff game, he threw for 352 yards and three TDs and rushed for 20 yards in that 34-31 victory.

The full 2025 Buffalo Bills regular season schedule will be unveiled at 8 p.m.

Buffalo Bills 2025 opponents

The Bills will host nine regular season games and one preseason game, with eight road regular season games and two away preseason games.

Home opponents: Miami Dolphins, New England Patriots, New York Jets, Baltimore Ravens, Cincinnati Bengals, New Orleans Saints, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Kansas City Chiefs, Philadelphia Eagles

Away opponents: Miami Dolphins, New England Patriots, New York Jets, Atlanta Falcons, Carolina Panthers, Cleveland Browns, Pittsburgh Steelers, Houston Texans

Will the Bills play an international game?

No. Those games have been released and the Bills are not part of the International Series.

The Bills’ last international game was a 25-20 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars on Oct. 8, 2023 at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London. The international games reveal will be broadcast on the NFL Network and Good Morning Football.

How to watch the Bills schedule release

The NFL schedule release show will air on NFL Network and NFL+ at 8 p.m. on Wednesday, May 14. ESPN2 will carry an NFL schedule special from 8-10 p.m. on Wednesday, May 14.

Fire tears through longtime Miami Gardens home of retired teacher

MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. — A longtime Miami Gardens resident watched a fire tore through his home Friday evening.

Edward Brown Jr., known in the community as “Mr. Brown,” embraced friends and family as he watched the aftermath of the flames that destroyed the house he’s lived in for more than 50 years.

“I don’t have anything right now,” Brown said.

Video from Sky 10 showed heavy smoke pouring out of the home as fire ripped through the property.

Brown, a retired teacher, said the fire started shortly after he had been cooking.

“Well, I thought I had turned the burner off, but when I went to the door, there was too much smoke,” he said.

He explained that he had just finished frying fish and was outside talking with his son when they realized something was wrong.

“I wasn’t really scared. Thank God I wasn’t scared,” he said.

Already outside, Brown and others tried to use a garden hose to control the flames as firefighters rushed into the neighborhood. The chaotic scene temporarily shut down the street.

Neighbors gathered nearby, many concerned as crews worked to put out the fire.

“Everybody was concerned, and I want to apologize to them,” Brown said. “I didn’t mean to disturb the neighborhood like this.”

Mr. Brown will stay with friends and family while he decides to do with his home.

Teenage suspects of 12-year-old girl’s 2025 rape in Miami appear in court again after being charged as adults

Teenage suspects of 12-year-old girl’s 2025 rape in Miami appear in court again after being charged as adults

Grim testimony was presented Thursday in a Miami courtroom during a bond hearing for two teenagers charged as adults in the alleged rape of a 12-year-old girl at an Overtown apartment building last summer.

The testimony happened as attorneys for 13-year-old Nelson Nuñez and 12-year-old Jusiah Jones requested that the youngsters be released on bond. The case is being heard by Miami-Dade Circuit Court Judge Richard Herschel.

Detective Louis Joseph testified that the suspects “held her down” and that the attack “went on for 30 minutes.” He said rocks were placed in her mouth to silence her during the attack and that Jones was accused of doing that.

“The victim had rocks in her mouth and spat out the rocks. The victim did not tell her father because she was afraid she would get into trouble,” Joseph stated.

Jones’s attorney argued that his client was forced by the others involved to place the rocks in the girl’s mouth and claimed Jones never participated in the sexual assault or held the girl down. The attorney said the suspects threatened to punch Jones if he did not participate and that Jones actually tried to stop the attack.

Nelson Nuñez’s brother, father, and mother testified through a translator, saying Nuñez would be well supervised if allowed out on bond, was not a danger to the community, and would not flee. They also said he had no prior criminal history. Nuñez’s soccer coach, a family member, said, “He’s a very good kid. I would say he is a follower. He does not fight or curse.”

Nuñez is being represented by defense attorney Bijan Parwaresch, a former prosecutor.

Judge Herschel said he wanted to hear more testimony before ruling on the bond and scheduled the hearing to continue at 9 a.m. Monday.

Miami Heat coach Erik Spoelstra after their loss to the Charlotte Hornets: “That was disappointing to see. There were parts of the game where it was just highly competitive, both sides. Both teams were going back and forth. It was set up to be a great finish. Once they got it to 10, that’s when it really changed and the floodgates went from there.”

“So, it’s a disappointing end to that game and now we just have to focus on getting ready for Thursday. We’ll learn what we can but we have to move on and get on to the next fight and make sure we’re ready and do what we need to do for Thursday night.”
