The Buffalo Bills were arguably the best team in football last year and if not for some inept coaching strategy late in the game with the Kansas City Chiefs, the Bills would have gone onto the AFC Championship Game with the Cincinnati Bengals and won. Tonight kicks off a new season and Buffalo will be in Inglewood to face the Super Bowl Champion Los Angeles Rams. If you think the Bills were good last year well they got better. Buffalo went out and acquired 8 time Pro Bowl linebacker Von Miller, who will bring leadership to their already stellar defense which was lacking in the past. Josh Allen can hurt you through the air and on the ground. The Bills gunslinger threw for 4,407 yards last year with 36 TD’s but knocking off the Champs will not be easy. Matthew Stafford had 4,886 passing yards last year for the Rams with 41 TD’s and has the best receiver in the game, Cooper Kupp. Kupp won the triple crown a year ago, leading the league in receptions (145), receiving yards (1,947) and receiving touchdowns (16). Simply put, Buffalo needs to contain the dynamic duo, and if they do, they win the game. The Bills are currently laying 2½ with a money line of only -135. Don’t sweat the points and consider the Bills on the money line.
