Bills vs. Saints Expert Betting Predictions

Both teams are struggling, which is why it will be difficult to find the winner straight up, much less against the spread. Based on the stats, the Bills should roll. But Buffalo has lost 2 of their last 3 road games straight up. One of the losses was downright pathetic, 6-9 against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Pressure appears to have gotten to Buffalo, who played about as bad as they have the past couple of seasons in the loss to the Colts.

For New Orleans, the issue appears to be more of making mistakes. The Saints are banged up big time, but they might be healthier in Week 12 than they have been in a long time. LT Terron Armstead and RT Ryan Ramczyk are listed as questionable. If they play, the Saints will have most of their starting offensive line intact. Mark Ingram and Alvin Kamara are also listed as questionable. If one or the other plays, the Saints could be in line for the upset victory.

One other thing to note is that New Orleans handed Taysom Hill a huge contract that could be worth up to $95 million should Hill start at quarterback. Don’t be surprised if Sean Payton starts Hill at QB on Thursday night. Starting Hill means Payton can call more plays than he could with Trevor Simian. If that happens, Buffalo may not adjust.

All told, the line gives too much credit to the Bills. Buffalo is a much different team than the one that beat the Chiefs 38-20 in Week 5. Taking a shot on the Saints’ moneyline makes sense.
