Can Bills Make a Statement?
This is one of the biggest regular-season games for the Bills this season and maybe the last couple of years. The Bills sit with an 8-2 record overall but they do know to make the Super Bowl they are probably going to need to have to get through the Kansas City Chiefs. The Bills in the last game faced off against the Indianapolis Colts and they were able to secure a 30-20 victory. Josh Allen completed 22 of his 37 passes for 280 yards, zero touchdowns, and two interceptions. He did have one rushing touchdown though. James Cook had a huge game finishing with 19 carries for 80 yards and a touchdown.
The Bills are averaging 29 points while their defense is giving up 19.3 points per game. The offense is ranked 3rd in the league while the defense is ranked 9th. Keon Coleman is dealing with a wrist injury and he’s already been ruled out for this game. Amari Cooper is dealing with a wrist injury and is questionable for this game.
Why the Bills Will Beat the Chiefs
- The Bills have won each of their last 13 games at Highmark Stadium following a road win.
- The Bills have covered the spread in five of their last six games as favorites.
- The Chiefs have failed to cover the spread in four of their last five road games following a Division game.
- The Bills have won the first half in 10 of their last 11 home games against teams that held a winning record.
- The Chiefs have lost the first quarter in each of their last three Week 11 games against AFC opponents.
Chiefs Continue to Pull Out Wins
The Chiefs haven’t looked dominant at times this season but they continue to win and they come into this game with a 9-0 record. On Sunday it took a block field goal as time expired to beat the Denver Broncos 16-14. Patrick Mahomes completed 28 of his 42 passes for 266 yards, one touchdown, and zero interceptions. Kareem Hunt was the top wide receiver finishing with seven catches for 65 yards.
The Chiefs are averaging 24.3 points while their defense is giving up 17.9 points per game. The offense is ranked 11th in the league while the defense is ranked 5th. In this game, the defense is going to need to step up here. If the defense struggles here, the Chiefs could be in trouble.
Kansas City Chiefs vs Buffalo Bills Prediction
The Bills are going to find success here. I would argue the Chiefs have played better this season, even though they have two losses and they have the quarterback who has played better this season. Patrick Mahomes isn’t going to have a good game against the Bills' defense, and he’s going to have a turnover or two. The Bills are going to have a big game from Josh Allen and it’s going to be Buffalo that is going to end up cruising here. Back the Bills against the spread here.
