The Oakland Raiders vs. Buffalo Bills betting odds had the Bills open as low as -8 ½ at home, though most online sports books and those in Vegas opened Buffalo at -9. Since that time the line has trended upwards to -9 ½ and even a few -10's.
Sportsbook.com was offering betting on this game plus they are giving back 5 percent on all losses for those who open an online betting account this weekend.
The line on this game is accurate based on our findings here at Gambling911.com. We would have designated this game with a line of -10 ½ Buffalo. We are leaning towards Buffalo being able to cover based on the opening line and we really do not see the majority of books offering this one over -10, though we have seen a -10 ½ already.
Sportsbook.com still had this one at -9 ½ and we were observing close to 85 percent of the action going Buffalo's way.
The Bills are off to a tremendous start this season especially in light of the New England Patriots Tom Brady injury. Who would have thought that the Bills were going to be competing with the Patriots to win the AFC East division. Both teams play two of the worst clubs in the league this weekend: Oakland and Miami, respectively. Barring a complete breakdown, the Bills and Patriots should be 3-0 coming off of Week 3.
Buffalo will want to come into this game with a certain mindset since they are playing two very sub par opponents over the next two weeks before they head to Arizona during Week 5 (and there is still a big question mark next to the Cardinals where we are concerned).
Oakland has won the last two games in this series over a period stretching back to 1999. The last time they met was three years ago and these are two different teams now....or at least Buffalo should be improved.
