Buffalo Bills NFL Betting Online

Since the end of the New England Patriots' nearly two-decade-long dynasty, the Buffalo Bills have emerged as the team to beat in the AFC East. Under Sean McDermott’s leadership, the franchise has made the playoffs in all but one of his seven years in Orchard Park. However, their playoff runs have ended in six early exits, with their deepest run being a 38-24 loss to Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs in the 2021 AFC Championship Game.

As the 2024-25 NFL betting season approaches, the Bills' upper management has been active in the offseason, making strategic moves through trades, free agency, and the NFL Draft. These efforts aim to enhance the team’s performance when it matters most, after failing to advance past the divisional round in the last three seasons. Notable additions have primarily strengthened the offense, with GM Brandon Beane hopeful that the defense will remain healthy after struggling with injuries in recent years. Nevertheless, the Bills enter the new season with high expectations, poised to claim the division title and achieve double-digit wins for the fourth consecutive year.

The Bills have done an excellent job of maintaining team continuity over the years, with the sole goal of making incremental progress each season to bring a championship to title-starved Buffalo. While their regular-season strategy has been successful, it has failed to meet expectations in the playoffs, as evidenced by their early exits in the division round over the last three seasons. Consequently, offseason changes were made to reshape the team’s identity, with upper management and the coaching staff hopeful that these moves will be enough to secure a Super Bowl title for the BillsMafia.

The 2024-25 Buffalo Bills will feature several new faces on offense following significant offseason changes. Stefon Diggs was traded to the Houston Texans, and Gabriel Davis signed with Jacksonville in free agency. These moves were necessary after Josh Allen’s passing stats took a noticeable dip last year. To bolster the offense, the front office signed Washington Commanders standout Curtis Samuel to a three-year deal and selected Keon Coleman with the first pick of the second round after trading out of the first round. Both are expected to integrate well with Khalil Shakir and Dalton Kincaid, who are projected to be Allen’s primary targets. Futures bettors are taking notice of Coleman (+2200) as a strong contender for the Offensive Rookie of the Year Award.

In a division that includes the Miami Dolphins and New York Jets, the AFC East is considered one of the toughest in the NFL. Consequently, it's no surprise that the Bills' schedule is ranked among the most challenging of all 32 teams. According to Sharp Football Analysis, it is the tenth toughest in the league, with nine road games scheduled and only eight set to go in front of the Highmark Stadium faithful. Although no overseas games are scheduled this time around, the Bills will face five teams on the road that punched a ticket to the second season and will host both of last year's Super Bowl teams, the Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers. Fortunately, their bye week falls between those significant matchups. Of the Bills' 14 opponents, half qualified for the playoffs last year with a bulk of them coming up at the tail end of the schedule.

Having taken home AFC East bragging rights each of the last four seasons, oddsmakers installed the Bills slight +152 favorites to do so again, ahead of the Dolphins (+176) and Jets (+227), with the Patriots lagging far behind (+2750). For the AFC title, only the Chiefs (+286) and Baltimore Ravens (+522) offer up shorter rates of return on the NFL futures odds at the online sportsbook. Buffalo’s odds of winning Super Bowl LIX hit the board at +1400 before being bought down to +1062. Of note however is a noticeably decreased season win total. Even after exceeding their lofty 12-game win total odds a season ago, the Bills enter the 2024-25 NFL betting season owners of a 10.5-game win total with heavier juice supplanted on the under. Still, Buffalo is one of 10 teams that own a double-digit win total entering the regular season, and it’s managed to go over the closing number in all but one season under McDermott’s watch.
