- The Bills are a 9-point home favorite against the Broncos.
- The Bills have won each of their last eight games at Highmark Stadium.
- My Bills vs. Broncos prediction is for Buffalo to cover the spread.
Sundayโs NFL wild-card action gets underway from Buffalo, with the Bills hosting the Broncos at Highmark Stadium.ย
The Billsโ Week 18 result proved meaningless after the Chiefs clinched the top overall seed. With starters rested, Buffalo returns home, looking to extend its home winning streak to nine games.ย
The Broncos clinched the seventh seed in the AFC thanks to a blowout win over the Chiefs in Week 18. Now, Bo Nix will look to end a five-game SU losing streak as underdogs.ย

NFL Wild Card Odds: Bills vs. Broncos
Bills vs. Broncos Prediction
Based on the recent success of big playoff favorites and the Billsโ outstanding home record, my Bills vs. Broncos prediction is the Bills Spread (-9, -110).ย
Give Denver their flowers for reaching the playoffs in Nixโs first season. However, he faces a steep climb to win outright and cover the spread.ย
Nix recorded a 7-0 ATS record as a market favorite this year. Comparatively, heโs 4-5 ATS as a market underdog.
Only once this season has Denver closed north of +8 against the spread. That came in Week 9 against Baltimore, who handed the Broncos a 41-10 loss.ย
Thereโs an argument to be made that the Buffalo offense lacks the same potency as Baltimore.ย
Although theyโre separated by only a spot in offensive DVOA, Baltimoreโs rating comes in 12.3% higher, according to ftnfantasy.com.ย
But the Bills have shown an ability to blow teams out at home. This season, theyโve covered or pushed this number in five of eight home games.ย
Itโs also an outstanding sell-high spot on a Broncos defense that has largely faced easy competition this year.ย
Although Denver ranks fourth in defensive DVOA, that record comes against the 24th-hardest set of opposing offenses, per ftnfantasy.com.ย
That game against Baltimore is the only occasion this season where Denver has played a top-five offense by DVOA.ย
Lastly, big home favorites have historically performed well in the playoffs.ย
Since 2020, home favorites between -11.5 and -8 are 6-2 ATS, including 4-0 ATS in the wild-card round.ย
As a result, lay the points with the Bills.ย
