The Buffalo Bills will be looking to gain more ground on the New England Patriots in the race for first place in the AFC East when they host the conference-leading Baltimore Ravens on Sunday afternoon as 6-point underdogs on the Week 14 NFL odds at sportsbooks monitored by OddsShark.com.
Buffalo is coming off a decisive 26-15 win in Dallas last Thursday, and now takes a three-game SU win streak into Sunday afternoon’s matchup at New Era Field.
With their win over the Cowboys as 6.5-point road chalk and New England’s 28-22 loss in Houston last week, the Bills now sit just one game back of the Patriots in the divisional standings. However, they continue to lag as +700 longshots on the division odds.
Buffalo has surrendered just 12.7 points per game during its three-game win streak, and has not surrendered a touchdown over its past two contests on home turf. However, the Bills have averaged just 11.9 points per game during a 2-6 SU run as home underdogs.
The Ravens arrive in Buffalo riding high after knocking off the San Francisco 49ers by a 20-17 score last week, extending their current SU win streak to eight games and seizing control of the top seed in the AFC. Powered by the NFL’s top rushing game, Baltimore has also moved atop the Super Bowl odds, but is winless in two trips to Buffalo since the franchise relocated from Cleveland in 1996.
The Patriots, meanwhile, look to rebound from last weekend’s loss to the Texans as 3-point road chalk when they welcome the Kansas City Chiefs to Gillette Stadium on Sunday afternoon as 3-point favourites. New England has struggled since opening the campaign on an 8-0 straight-up run, losing outright in two of four contests, and averaging just 17.1 points per game over their past three outings.
Now trailing as +350 second favourites on the Super Bowl odds, the Patriots face a Chiefs team coming off a 40-9 rout of the Oakland Raiders to take a two-game lead atop the AFC West standings. The Chiefs have also won SU in five of six road games this season, and topped 40 points in each of their past two road dates with New England.
Elsewhere on the Week 14 NFL odds, two of the top teams in the NFC clash as the New Orleans Saints host the San Francisco 49ers as 2.5-point betting favourites. As well, the Seattle Seahawks look to keep pace with the Saints and Niners as they pursue a sixth straight win in a Sunday night matchup with the Los Angeles Rams as narrow 1-point chalk.
