Why Buffalo Bills are a good bet at +7.5?
Buffalo’s only 2-2 straight up in their last 4. They’re 3-1 against the spread in their last 4, though. Buffalo’s been underappreciated this entire year. They pulled off the amazing moneyline win over Minnesota as a huge +17 dog. They covered in Week 6 in a loss to Houston and they covered when losing by a single point to Tennessee in Week 5.Bills play good enough defense to keep the Colts within a TD and extra point. Leaning on their defense, Buffalo might not win the game, but they can cover the spread.Team Statistics
