At the onset of 2024, there is no sense of despair at One Bills Drive after back-to-back home postseason flameouts. Still, that doesn’t mean there isn’t a recognition that after four straight AFC East division titles. But the Buffalo Bills don’t have much else to show for all that success. 2023 ended with yet another NFL odds playoff loss to their arch-nemesis, the Chiefs. Of course, the Chiefs have served as the chief impediment in the Bills’ pursuit of an elusive Super Bowl title. Kansas City has been to the postseason in more consecutive seasons (nine) than Buffalo’s five.

Last season, the Bills looked like the best team in the NFL before their London game. However, they suffered massive injuries and then lost to some poor opponents. They managed to rebound and reach the second round of the playoffs. But more injuries derailed their chances.
2024 Buffalo Bills Preview
The Bills were beaten by Kansas City in the AFC Championship Game three times in the last four years. Following the 2020 season and the 2021 and ’23 divisional rounds.
While the Chiefs show no online wagering signs of slowing down, the Bills are entering a bit of a transitional season. Correlate that Buffalo has a new offensive coordinator (Joe Brady), a new defensive coordinator (Bobby Babich), and an offense that, for the first time since 2020, will not have superstar wide receiver Stefon Diggs (traded to Houston).
The Bills were supposed to possess one of the top NFL betting odds offenses in 2023. So, it was a huge surprise that the team was limited to 25 or fewer points in seven of their first ten games. Buffalo was held to fewer than 20 points on three occasions. Cause by the scoring unit being loaded with great talents like Josh Allen and Stefon Diggs, something had to change.
Last year, the Bills looked to have a terrific defense. They limited their first four opponents to 22 points or fewer. Additionally, two of those teams scored a combined 13 points. However, disaster struck after Week 4, as numerous defenders went down with injuries.
In sum, as long as Josh Allen is healthy, the Bills will be in the mix for a playoff spot and a potential championship. It’ll help if they don’t suffer the same injury misfortune that transpired last year. If they have better luck remaining healthy, they’ll have a great chance of finally reaching the Super Bowl.
