There’s still a little over two months before the NFL season kicks off. To help speed up the timeline, we’re starting daily NFL previews. We’ll be highlighting the betting action for individual teams in four Hustles per week, sorting them out by division.
So to finish off June, we’re beginning AFC East week with the Bills.
SUPER BOWL
Odds: Opened +550 (second), currently +800 (third)
Action: 10.9% tickets (third), 7.6% handle (fourth)
WIN TOTAL
Odds: 10.5 (Over -140, Under +115)

DIVISION

Action: 31.5% tickets (second among AFC East teams), 33.1% handle (second)
PERUSING THE PLAYERS
Josh Allen is tied for the second-lowest MVP odds with Joe Burrow (+700), but ranks eighth in tickets (3.7%) and seventh in handle (7.2%) for this market.
Only 12 players have lower Offensive Player of the Year odds than Stefon Diggs (+2500), yet Buffalo’s star wideout hasn’t received a single bet to take home the award.
TRADER’S TAKE: “The Bills look to be be stronger than last season on paper. However, losing LB Tremaine Edmunds and the drama surrounding Diggs creates a bit of concern. With Allen’s cap hit jumping to over $47M next season, Buffalo must prove it can overcome AFC powerhouses in the Chiefs and Bengals in 2023 while its core is intact.”
