played the Chicago Bears (+8.5) in the regular season, it was Week 9 of 2018. Quarterback Josh Allen was a rookie, and did not suit up for the game, as he was sitting out the third of four contests that he missed that season with a sprained throwing elbow. Nathan Peterman drew the start at quarterback instead, and turned the ball over three times — including throwing a pick-six — as the Bills were crushed at home by a playoff-bound Bears team, 41-9.
Things look a lot different for these teams four years later. Buffalo, helmed by MVP-candidate Allen, have just clinched their fourth straight playoff appearance, and are looking to wrap up their third straight AFC East title by notching their sixth straight win on Saturday in Chicago.
