'Just an Absurdity To Go Against Him': Nick Wright Calls Out Oddsmakers for Making Patrick Mahomes' Chiefs an Underdog in Week 11 vs. Bills
Mahomes' Success Against the Bills
Patrick Mahomes has a proven track record of success against the Buffalo Bills. In four career starts against Buffalo, Mahomes has led the Chiefs to a 3-1 record, throwing for 1,282 yards, 11 touchdowns, and just one interception.
In the Chiefs' most recent meeting with the Bills in Week 6 of the 2021 season, Mahomes threw for 332 yards and three touchdowns in a 38-20 victory.
The Chiefs' Offense is Rolling
The Chiefs' offense is currently ranked second in the NFL in points per game (32.3) and third in yards per game (424.3).
Mahomes is playing at an MVP level, completing 67.3% of his passes for 2,936 yards, 25 touchdowns, and just four interceptions.
The Chiefs also have a number of talented weapons on offense, including Travis Kelce, Tyreek Hill, and Clyde Edwards-Helaire.
The Bills' Defense is Not as Strong as it Seems
The Bills' defense is ranked eighth in the NFL in points allowed per game (19.3), but they have not faced many elite offenses this season.
In their last three games, the Bills have allowed 27 points to the Green Bay Packers, 23 points to the Tennessee Titans, and 24 points to the New York Jets.
The Chiefs' offense will be the toughest test yet for the Bills' defense.
Based on Mahomes' success against the Bills, the Chiefs' high-powered offense, and the Bills' shaky defense, it is absurd to make the Chiefs an underdog in Week 11.
The Chiefs should be favored by at least a field goal against the Bills, and they could even win by a larger margin.
