Don’t look now but the Buffalo Bills are now leading the AFC East and suddenly look like the team to beat following a shock win in Atlanta against one of the only remaining undefeated teams. The payout should Buffalo take the division? $1500 for every $100 bet. Ahead of Week 5, you can still lock them in for a payout potential of $450 on every $100 bet to win the AFC East.
Here’s how it all went down Sunday, courtesy of ESPN.com:
After their defense stifled 2016 MVP Matt Ryan and the undefeated Falcons' offense Sunday, winning 23-17, the Bills sit at 3-1 and atop the AFC East with a New England Patriots' loss to the Carolina Panthers. Few expected the Bills to have any shot in the division this season against the normally dominant Patriots, but the Bills' top-ranked defense and the Patriots' 32nd-ranked defense -- allowing 31.7 points per game entering Week 4 -- have changed the conversation.
The Falcons gained 391 total yards Sunday against Buffalo but turned the ball over three times, including a 52-yard fumble return for a touchdown by Bills cornerback Tre'Davious White on what came close to being a pass by Ryan, his motion disrupted by defensive end Jerry Hughes. Ryan also was intercepted twice by safety Micah Hyde, who signed a five-year, $30.5 million this offseason.
The Patriots entered the season as a huge -1400 favorite to win the AFC East this season.
As if things weren't interesting enough, the Jets suddenly find themselves at 2-2 after Week 4 as this was going to press. They have the same record as the Patriots.
