Patriots vs Bills Week 7 Opening Odds Predict Another Beatdown in Foxborough
By Tyler Maher
Just when you think the New England Patriots have hit rock bottom, they keep finding new ways to lose.
The Patriots suffered their third straight defeat in Week 6, falling to 1-5 on the season with a 21-17 loss to the Las Vegas Raiders. This time it was a dropped pass by DeVante Parker and a crushing safety on their final drive that did the Patriots in, resulting in their third one-possession loss of the season.
The other two defeats have been blowouts, however, and that is exactly what Wynn Sportsbook is predicting when New England hosts the Buffalo Bills in Week 7.
Patriots vs Bills Week 7 Odds
As of Monday morning, WynnBET has the Bills as 8.5-point road favorites against the Patriots. It wouldn't be surprising to see that spread approach double digits as the week progresses and money starts pouring in on Buffalo, however.
Put simply, New England has one of the worst rosters in the NFL right now. Its offense has been especially putrid, ranking 31st in points per game and 27th in yards per game. Mac Jones looks utterly broken right now and there's a chance that Bill Belichick will finally make a quarterback change in Week 7.
It doesn't help that the Patriots' defense and offensive line have both been decimated by injuries. New England's defense was supposed to be elite but instead ranks 23rd in points per game allowed, while the running game ranks 29th in yards per attempt.
The Patriots are 0-3 at home and lost their most recent game in Foxborough 34-0, so you can't even say they have home-field advantage in this division rivalry matchup.
The 4-2 Bills, on the other hand, are one of the most talented and balanced teams in the league. They rank third in scoring on both offense and defense, which means they should have no trouble putting up points on Sunday while keeping New England's anemic offense in check.
Buffalo has beaten the Patriots in their last four matchups, winning each game by at least 12 points. Expect another dominant Bills performance (and New England loss) on Sunday.
The Patriots may be struggling, but there's no better place to bet on this matchup than at your hometown sportsbook, so make sure to sign up for WynnBET before kickoff!
