Broncos vs. Bills, Week 10: Pick against the spread
At 5-4, the Bills are still a game behind the Dolphins in the AFC East. What’s been most mysterious about the Bills is their offensive output lately. Through the first four games of the season, they scored nearly 35 points per game on average; over their last five, they’re averaging just 20.2 points per game. They’re 2-3 over that last stretch too.
These two teams are meeting at an interesting time. While the Bills have been struggling lately to score points, the Broncos’ defense is playing like an entirely different unit than the one that let the Dolphins hang 70 points on them back in Week 3. The Broncos have now won two in a row, including a 24-9 upset win over the Chiefs in Week 8, their last game before a bye in Week 9. Over their last three contests, the Broncos’ defense hasn’t allowed an opponent to score more than 19 points, and that includes two games against the Chiefs.
The Bills are just 3-6 against the spread this season, having failed to cover in their last five outings.
