Head to head
Preview
How it plays out
Buffalo Bills vs Houston Texans is an all-AFC matchup with seeding on the line. Our model makes Buffalo Bills a heavy favorite (76% to win, spread BUF -4).
Tactically, Buffalo Bills will want to lean on aggressive front to attack Houston Texans, whose depth at WR is the obvious pressure point. Going the other way, Houston Texans's fierce pass rush could punish Buffalo Bills if january ceiling goes unaddressed. It is the kind of trade-off decided in the margins: third down, the trenches, and the turnover battle.
Keep an eye on Josh Allen (QB) and C.J. Stroud (QB): the two most likely to decide it with a single play. Bills get the home crowd, worth a few points of swing before kickoff.
