Buffalo Bills (+10) over Denver Broncos

I’m honestly not sure why this line is so high. Denver is undefeated at home and they do employ Peyton Manning (which is a good thing), but this is a highly respectable Bills team with a 7-5 record and a quality defense.

The “sharp” guys are on the side of Buffalo, and with good reason, as double-digit lines are normally reserved for big-time mismatches, and this does not fit that bill. There are obvious concerns with Kyle Orton and the Buffalo offense on the road in Mile High, but their defense is fully capable of at least slowing Manning and company down at times, and that should give anyone pause in evaluating this line.

It isn’t get more “public” than Denver at home, and we’re riding against them.
