It’s a quarterback heavyweight Sunday afternoon in western New York when Joe Burrow and the Bengals take on reigning NFL MVP Josh Allen and the Bills.
On FanDuel, the Bills are -5.5 point favorites. The over/under is set at 52.5. The line was initially 6.5, so it’s dropped a point, potentially based on the news that Tee Higgins is practicing and could return this week after suffering a scary concussion in Week 12.
The Bengals’ money line is +235, while the Bills’ money line is -290.
When the Bengals and Bills met in the NFL Playoffs in 2022, the Bills were -5.5 point favorites. Burrow famously said, leading into that game, that he “never feels like an underdog.” It showed in the Bengals’ 27-10 win.
Burrow thrives in an underdog role. He’s had to overcome a ton of adversity already in his career, and Sunday will be no different.
The weather could be a major factor on Sunday in Buffalo. It’s going to be cold, and there could be snow. But remember the last time Burrow and the Bengals played in Buffalo? They won 27-10 in a snow globe.
Sunday’s game is, essentially, another must-win game for the Bengals. But with Joe Burrow and his December record, anything is possible, even as an underdog.
Joe Burrow is 2-0 against Josh Allen and the Bills in his career.
