The Buffalo Bills come into Sunday’s match-up with the Philadelphia Eagles as a slight favorite. The odds makers have Buffalo favored to win by 1.5 points, less than the standard three points granted to most home teams in tight contests.
The odds mean little, however, as both teams enter in the midst of different trajectories. The Bills are playing the second of three straight home games, and they are 5-1, with their last victory a closer-than-expected 31-21 win over the Miami Dolphins. Philadelphia, on the other hand, is playing the third of three straight road games.
