The Bills are on a roll this season, and the oddsmakers in Vegas are expecting them to continue with it this week against the New Orleans Saints.
When the Bills took the field on week one at home, they were underdogs to the Baltimore Ravens. It’s pretty uncommon for a home team to be listed as an underdog, much less the Bills at Highmark Stadium.
That’s the last time that’s happened so far this season, and this week they’re being favored by a huge number again.
The Bills are massive favorites to win against the Saints
The Bills will be at home again this week as they take on the New Orleans Saints at Highmark Stadium on Sunday. It’s still early, and it can change before kickoff, but right now, they’re favored by 16.5 points. It’s a massive spread, but when you look at why, it makes sense. The Bills are 3-0 so far this season. The Saints still haven’t won yet. They’re 0-3 so far and are staring down the Bills.
The 16.5-point spread is the biggest spread the Bills have seen since taking on the Houston Texans in 2021, when they had a 17.5-point spread in the Bills’ favor.
Don’t underestimate a winless team
There’s a reason why they use the phrase “Any given Sunday” in the NFL. You just never know who is going to have a big week and surprise someone. The Dolphins were winless as they took on the Bills for Thursday night football, too. Everyone counted them out, and they gave the Bills headaches all night.
There’s something to be said for pride in sports. The Bills should be able to coast through this one, but it will be up to them to take care of their business.
