Nathan Who? Ask Fans Who Bet on NFL: Bills vs. Chiefs

Buffalo Bills vs. Kansas City Chiefs NFL Week 12 Betting Odds and Preview
November 24th, 2017 NFL Football Betting Online Odds

Buffalo Bills fans who like to bet on NFL can breathe a collective sigh of relief; quarterback Tyrod Taylor will start versus the Kansas City Chiefs. “A week ago, I felt like the right thing for the team was to start Nate [Peterman]. I feel like the right thing [now] for this team is to start Tyrod,” head coach Sean McDermott said. Bills, you’re better than the Browns. You don’t need another Hue Jackson. Heck, even Dylan McDermott would probably do a better job.

Sean and Repeat went fishing. Sean fell of the boat. Who was left?

Peterman’s dismal, five-pick performance in the first half of the game against the Chargers on Sunday was the catalyst to a 24-54 loss, the Bills’ third straight SU and ATS loss. Buffalo is currently 5-5 and out of position for a wild-card spot in the AFC, but according to McDermott, “You look around the league and there’s [sic] a lot of teams in the hunt. We’re in the hunt. You sit here and say, ‘Hey, Thanksgiving, close to the end of November and we’re in the hunt.’ You sit around the table tomorrow and say, ‘We’re in the hunt.’ There’s [sic] a lot of teams that wish they were in the hunt. Well, we’re in the hunt.” Okay, first of all, saying it over and over again won’t make it so. And second, with the Patriots looking in the horizon, every other win is a must-win, starting with the Chiefs, against whom the Bills have lost the last three meetings straight, as fans who bet on NFL must know. Moreover, Buffalo is 2-13 SU in their last 15 road games in November.

Chiefs are the new Vikings

So the Chiefs are not just a ‘must-win’ for the Bills, but actually a ‘could-win.’ KC is following in the footsteps of the 2016 Vikings by getting fans’ hopes up with a 5-0 SU and ATS start only to follow that up with a 4-1 SU and ATS stretch in the last five (the latter of which is the Chiefs home record against the Bills in Buffalo’s last five visits), including a 9-12 upset to the Giants, of all teams, as 10-point road faves. QB Alex Smith, nonetheless, believes the Chiefs can snap out of their funk. “Absolutely, without a doubt,” he said. “The margins are so small. Going through this tape everybody is going to kick themselves. If this guy had just done this, if I had just done that. [The plays] are there. It’s a matter of doing those little things. I think we have the personnel, the plan, the coaches.” Kansas is 2-4 SU in their last 16 games in the early afternoon, 6-2 ATS in their last eight after a loss, and 1-4 ATS in their last five games overall, which is food for thought for fans who bet on NFL.
