It's the Josh Allen effect, certainly. Buffalo is marching out a new first-time head coach (prior OC, yes) in Joe Brady, and a new, first-time NFL defensive coordinator in Jim Leonhard, yet they come in as the favorites against a home team with six consecutive NRG wins against them... All I have to do is look back to the Bills' 2025 season opener against the Baltimore Ravens. Late into the fourth quarter it seemed as though Buffalo was heading to 0-1, yet Allen and defensive tackle Ed Oliver had other plans in the closing minutes... Josh Allen is also pretty good at throwing and running for touchdowns in the same game. Might want to look at those options.

Allen's clutch gene and dual-threat upside support Bills favorites status

Buffalo Ramblings notes the 'Josh Allen effect' as reason Bills are favored despite new coaching staff (first-time HC Joe Brady, first-time DC Jim Leonhard) and playing at NRG Stadium where Buffalo hasn't won since 2006 (10 consecutive losses). Allen demonstrated clutch performance in Bills' 2025 season opener against Baltimore Ravens, leading late-game comeback from near 0-1 start. Source suggests Allen can find defensive weaknesses to exploit and is 'pretty good at throwing and running for touchdowns in the same game,' recommending touchdown prop bets.
