Who is announcing the Dolphins-Bills Wild Card playoff game?
By Asher Fair
The Miami Dolphins are set to take on the Buffalo Bills for a third time this NFL season and second at Highmark Stadium in Orchard Park.
After clinching the AFC’s No. 7 seed in an 11-6 victory over the New York Jets last Saturday afternoon, the Miami Dolphins are set to make their first playoff appearance since 2016 on Sunday afternoon against the No. 2 seed Buffalo Bills.
The Dolphins faced off against their AFC East rivals twice in the regular season, with the two teams each securing a victory at home. The Dolphins won at Hard Rock Stadium by a score of 21-19 back in Week 3, and the Bills won at Highmark Stadium by a score of 32-29 back in Week 15.
Seeking their first playoff victory since 2000 to end what is currently the second longest drought in the NFL and the longest drought on the AFC, the Dolphins will be without quarterback Tua Tagovailoa, as he has yet to clear concussion protocol.
Dolphins vs. Bills is the third of six games on the schedule for Super Wild Card Weekend, and it is set to be the first of three played on Sunday.
Because this AFC East showdown is the only Wild Card game set to be broadcast live on CBS, CBS’s “Lead Team” is set to be on hand in the booth. Jim Nantz is set to be the lead play-by-play announcer, with Tony Romo joining him as an analyst.
The game is scheduled to take place on Sunday at 1:00 p.m. ET. Of the other five Wild Card games, two are set to be shown on Fox (Saturday, 4:30 p.m. ET, and Sunday, 4:30 p.m. ET), two are set to be shown on NBC (Saturday, 8:15 p.m. ET, and Sunday, 8:15 p.m. ET), and one is set to be shown on ESPN/ABC (Monday, 8:15 p.m. ET).
The other two AFC games are the two set to be shown on NBC.
