NFL Best Bets & Odds: Week 5 Sunday Night Football
Buffalo Bills vs. Kansas City Chiefs
Date: Sunday, October 10, 2021
Time: 8:20 p.m. EST
Venue: GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium — Kansas City, Mo.
Coverage: NBC
After losing to the Steelers in Week 1, the Bills have been the most dominant team in the NFL, outscoring their opponents 118-21 over the past three weeks. The competition has not been great, but their level of focus proves how good they are. Offensively they are more of a balanced attack, running the football and targeting more receiving options. Defensively they have had two shutouts over the past three weeks.
The Chiefs are coming off a dominant win, but it came against the Eagles, and they have not shown title-contending play thus far. However, the offense has not been the problem, and their pass-catching group will get better this week, with the debut of Josh Gordon. The defense is the massive issue in Kansas City. They have surrendered a league-worst 6.9 yards per play and must find a way to get off the field so Patrick Mahomes can get on it.
