A favourite among Canadian NFL fans, particularly in Ontario, the Buffalo Bills are one of the Nation Football League’s powerhouse teams. The Bills hope to put it all together in 2023 and see their Championship drought finally come to an end. Buffalo hasn’t seen a Championship since before the AFL-NFL merger in 1970, when they won the AFL crown back to back in 1964 and 1965. The Bills famously lost in the Super Bowl game a record four times in a row between 1990-1993, a record that still pains Bills fans the world over. The 2023 Buffalo Bills seem primed to give fans their best shot at seeing an NFL title, and win or lose, it’s going to be a mighty exciting season!

Bet On Buffalo Bills’ Games
In the past, the Bills won 2 AFL Championships in 1964 and 1965. They’ve won four AFC Conference Championships, in 1990, 1991, 1992, and 1993. In total, they’ve won 10 Division Championships 4 in the AFC and 6 in the AFC. Their most recent AFC title was in 1995.
The last time the Buffalo Bills were in the super bowl was in 1992, where they lost to the Dallas Cowboys.
Over the past four seasons, the Buffalo Bills have consistently been strong contenders in the AFC, securing 47 victories during that period. Despite their success, they have been unable to overcome the formidable challenge posed by the Kansas City Chiefs in the playoffs. Nonetheless, as the 2023 season approaches, the Bills aim to address this obstacle by implementing slight alterations in their offensive and defensive strategies and making personnel changes.
Given the team’s already promising position to contend for championships, the Buffalo Bills did not feel the need to make significant alterations to their roster or coaching staff. Consequently, few wholesale changes were made, as they were deemed unnecessary.
In the latest NFL Power Rankings, the Buffalo Bills hold the fourth position, maintaining their lead in the AFC East by a single spot. Both the Jets and Dolphins possess skilled rosters, with one team significantly improving their offense and the other making notable strides on the defensive front.
Looking ahead, the Bills face a challenging schedule, including matchups against the competitive NFC East teams. Additionally, they will have to contend with their divisional rivals six times in the 2023 season. On top of that, challenging away games against the Bengals, Chiefs, and Chargers await them.
Nonetheless, the Bills are expected to remain a formidable contender in the tough AFC. Their success will largely depend on avoiding major injuries throughout the year, as they have the potential to pose a genuine threat to the top of the conference.

Betting on the Buffalo Bills
The Buffalo Bills likely stand to be favorites in most of their 2023-24 matchups. Will they live up to the hype in the coming season? Here are the most popular ways to bet on the Bills in 2023-24:
- Point Spread
- Moneyline
- Over/Unders
- Props
- Future Odds
Bills Spread
Betting point spreads are wagers based on the expectation that a team will win or lose by a certain number of points. The Bills were 9-6-2 overall against the spread throughout the regular season, so they were a fairly reliable bet to cover over the course of the year. Here’s an example of how the spread works using a Bills game against the New England Patriots as an example.
- Bills -3.5 (-110)
- Patriots +3.5 (-110)
In this situation, the Patriots are 3.5 point underdogs against the Bills. If Buffalo wins the game by four or more points, a $110 wager on the Bills would come with a payout of $100. If New England won the game outright or lost by three points or less, a $110 wager would net $100.
Bills Moneyline
Buffalo Bills – Over 10.5 Wins – (REG. SEASON)
Buffalo was a solid moneyline pick throughout the season with an 11-6 record. While they were more likely than not to win a moneyline bet, bettors did not stand to gain much from the Bills in this regard as they were favorites in 14 of their 17 games. This means the odds would not necessarily be favorable to winning big money when betting on the Bills in a straightup moneyline wager. Here’s an example of a Bills moneyline bet.
- Bills -147
- Patriots +124
The minus (-) and plus (+) signs distinguish the favorite from the underdog, making Bills the favorite in this scenario. Odds can be understood more clearly if you think in terms of $100 increments. A wager on the Bills odds would mean every $147 bet nets $100. And it’s the opposite for underdogs: Here the Patriots moneyline was set at +124, meaning a $100 wager would profit $124.
Moneylines are also commonly used when making parlays, which are multiple bets tied into one. Let’s say you bet the Bills moneyline and a -2.5 point spread. Buffalo would need to win by three points or more for that bet to be successful. The risk is greater, but so is the reward with increased odds. Use our Odds Calculator to calculate any bet amount or conversion.
Bills Over/Under
Over/under, also called point total, is a wager placed on the combined scoring of a single game. Bookmakers come up with a number and you can either bet the over or — you guessed it — the under. Here’s how it works:
Let’s say the Bills play the Patriots and the over/under is set at 44 points. A wager on the over would require Buffalo and New England to score 45 total points or more to win. Betting the under is an expectation that the two teams would score 43 points or fewer. It’s also possible for the bet to push, which would happen if the game finished with exactly 44 points scored.
Bills Prop Bets
Player props are wagers on a single player, and they’re tied to a single stat found in the box score for a game or even the whole season. These are among the most fun to bet on, especially if you’re already playing fantasy football and like the player-specific focus it offers. Check out a hypothetical example below:
- Over/Under: Josh Allen 2022 passing yards: 3,550.5
In this example, a bettor will wager on whether or not Allen will throw for more or less than 3,550.5 yards over the course of the season.

Bills Future Odds
A futures bet is a wager that will decided based on a result that takes place later in the season. Future bets can be made on both team and individual player outcomes. Some examples of popular futures bets include:
- Buffalo Bills odds to win the AFC East
- Buffalo Bill odds to win the AFC
- Buffalo Bill odds to win the Super Bowl
Because NFL futures are so hard to predict, bettors can expect highly favorable odds with sizeable payouts should they win.
