Buffalo Bills

FanDuel Price: $4,200
numberFire Projection: 9.3 FanDuel points

The Buffalo Bills, with the second-worst offense in the NFL, according to our schedule adjusted ranks, have four wins this season. If not for their ferocious defense, they could still be searching for their first W.

Sitting sixth in our power ranks, the defense suffocates opposing offenses, allowing the second-fewest yards per game (294.2). Over their last three games, they have stepped up their game, forcing an average of 1.7 turnovers, collecting 3.0 sacks, and giving up just 18.0 points per game. One of those games came against this week’s opponent, the New York Jets.

Back in Week 10, the Bills shut down Gang Green, giving up 10 points while picking off Josh McCown twice. This week, Sam Darnold is expected to be under center, but that is not much of an improvement. The rookie “leads” the NFL with 14 interceptions in just 9 games played. His 4.8% interception percentage ranks him 33rd out of the 34 quarterbacks with at least 150 pass attempts.

Overall, the Jets' offense is one to target as they rank 30th, per our metrics, and are carrying an implied point total of 17.25 into a tough environment in Buffalo.
