Process Posted May 17, 2021 Share Posted May 17, 2021 (edited) Interesting. They've posted lines for every game of the season and Bills vs Texans is the largest spread. Obviously things will change but it's mid may, there's nothing else to talk about football wise. Bills -1.5 at NO is also interesting. Thought that one would be close and could go either way. **The betting line, not the game to be clear. Bills win big. If Bills are favorites in that game then they are almost certainly betting favorites in 15/17 games, as of right now. Would love to see the full list.

MJS Posted May 17, 2021 Share Posted May 17, 2021 The Bills should be favored against the Saints. They don't have Drew Brees anymore. They had to gut a lot of their team to get under the cap. Their defense is not going to be as good as it was. And the Bills should probably be favored, as of now, in all of their games except KC and TB. Now, obviously things can change... 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Favorites going into every game except the Chiefs and Bucs. Will likely be a heavy favorite in a lot of these games too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick Duffy Posted May 17, 2021 Share Posted May 17, 2021 Thought for sure spread against Saints would be bigger than that. Guess they figure Winston can put up some points. Still would have guessed at least 5 instead of 1.5 against Saints. Will likely change quite a few times anyways.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think the actual game will be close. I think the Bills blow them out. I was referring strictly to the betting line. And I was correct on that. Remember, the Bills were underdogs vs the 49ers and Nick Mullens last year. As far as the betting line there is no way bills were going to be a big favorite in NO on Thanksgiving, as of right now. Thought the Bills would be favored but wouldn't have been shocked to see a PK or Saints -1. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m over that one because our team wasn’t that great overall. Good defense but that offense was bad, no WR, and shady was playing on a bum ankle. I’m not over the Houston playoff game. That one I feel like got stolen and we should have won. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If TT wins that game, whose to say we don’t stick with him for another year? Also, like other games, we took certain losses to push us in different directions. Our offense was abysmal. That game led to the drafting of Allen and bringing in our receivers. The ending of the drought was a beautiful thing. Sending Kyle off like we did was special. Look at the successes from that season, be happy, and then look at where it led us to. I wouldn’t change anything about the past 4 seasons because it brought us here. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg S Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 If its still a 14 point spread at game time I would probably take the Texans. The Bills should win comfortably but you always have to worry about those garbage time TD's that lead to a back door cover. This isn't CFB where blowout wins are the norm. In the NFL I hate giving that many points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Another Fan Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 One of the more infamous memories I have of the board was the time the Bills were 17 point underdogs against Minnesota and wound up winning.

Winston or Hill behind center? 🤮🤮🤮 The Bills are going to win handily by double digits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think anyone had any expectations of a playoff run that year. The 2021 season is a different story as their is a lot of pressure on the Bills now with expectations thru the roof in WNY. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
