Is a Blowout Possible Will Bills Bucs Game Thursday Night? Line Up to -10

We are monitoring Thursday night's Bucs-Bills game closely as the line has moved from Buffalo -7.5 to -10.  We have not really seen any books dropping the line on Thursday as Buffalo continues to see as much as 88% of the spread action.  This has all the making of a blowout.

Full Line Monitoring and Action

The Bills were coming in at -9 with 93% of the action as of Wednesday.  On Monday BetOnline had the number at -7.5 and had moved it to -8.5 then -9 by Wednesday evening.  Bookmaker was keeping the number around -8.  Circa had the number at -9 and moved it to -8.5.  Bovada has moved the number up the highest, all the way to -9.5 just after 6 pm ET Wednesday.  They had Buffalo at -7.5 on Monday.  Sagarin has a number of 12.09.  This one was Bills $225K to Bucs $20K overnight, so if you're a sportsbook you'll want to move this line up as much as you can.  In this case that ceiling for now is 10 (Circa, Pinnacle).  Americas Bookie, AcePerHead still had this one at 9 overnight.   We were giving Buffalo a 55% chance as of 11:30 pm ET Wednesday night.

How Have the Bills Responded After a Loss?

It depends.  Following their Week 1 shock loss to the Jets, Buffalo went on to beat Las Vegas 38-10 then won against Washington 37-3.  Against Miami the following week, the Bills won 48-20.

But hosting the Giants, Buffalo won by just five points the week prior to last.

The Miami and Las Vegas blowouts were at home.  Buffalo's only "home" loss was actually in London to Jacksonville.  It's possible that unimpressive win at home against the Giants was a result of an overseas travel hangover.  Who really knows.
