The Buffalo Bills have been on the cusp of greatness the last 2 years in winning the AFC East and they have made the playoffs the last 3 seasons. Many believed last year would be the season that ended Buffalo’s Super Bowl drought. We know it wasn’t, but the team has gone all in to win this year and it led to an amazing offseason of signings.
Below, we look at the Buffalo Bills 2022 NFL futures odds – including win total, division, conference and Super Bowl odds at Tipico Sportsbook – with best bet suggestions among our NFL picks and predictions.
Buffalo already had the personnel to make a Super Bowl run, but doubled down by signing LB Von Miller, DT DaQuan Jones, DT Tim Settle, WR Jamison Crowder, G Rodger Saffold, G Dan Quessenberry and TE O.J. Howard in the offseason to augment the strong core they already have.
Buffalo added more talent in the draft, including CB Kaiir Elam in the first round, RB James Cook in the second and LB Terrel Bernard in the third to provide young new talent to push the starters at their positions and, at a minimum, build more depth.

Buffalo Bills’ 2022 win total: Best bet
Odds provided by Tipico Sportsbook; access USA TODAY Sports Scores and Sports Betting Odds hub for a full list. Lines last updated Monday, May 16 at 8:19 a.m. ET.
Over/Under: 11.5 (O: -130 | U: +110)
Buffalo’s Over/Under ties for the highest in the league, forcing the Bills to win 12 games to hit the Over. It’s hard to take the Over (even though the betting odds suggest they will), but it can be argued their 2 toughest games will come with plenty of preparation.
The Bills open the season at the defending champion Rams and the Bills will have months to prepare for that one. When they host the Green Bay Packers Oct. 30, they will do so coming out their bye week, a luxury the Packers won’t have.
If Buffalo can split those two games, it will take them a long way to hitting the lofty Over total.
TAKE THE BUFFALO BILLS AND THE OVER (-130)
Buffalo Bills’ 2022 Super Bowl odds
Odds: +600 (bet $100 to win $600)
Buffalo has the lowest odds of any team in the league to win the Super Bowl with Tampa Bay (+700) is the only other team with a number under +1000. That tells you the level of confidence that oddsmakers have that this is Buffalo’s year.
After losing 4 straight Super Bowls from 1990-93, the Bills have never made it back to the Big Game. They have invested heavily to make that happen this year and look to have the horses on both sides of the ball to get the job done.
TAKE THE BUFFALO BILLS TO WIN THE SUPER BOWL (+600)
Buffalo Bills’ 2022 playoff odds
Will Bills make the playoffs: Yes -500 | No +350
The Bills are so locked and loaded to make a deep playoff run, simply making the playoffs is viewed as an afterthought. Josh Allen is playing like a MVP and this should be the year he finally gets acknowledged. That being said, no bet is worth putting up 5 times the amount that you would get back to win. It just doesn’t make sense when you can make more sound investments. PASS.
Odds to win AFC East Division
- Buffalo Bills -220 (bet $220 to win $100)
- Miami Dolphins +400 (bet $100 to win $400)
- New England Patriots +450 (bet $100 to win $450)
- New York Jets +2000 (bet $100 to win $2,000)
I never like giving away more than a 2:1 ratio on a bet, but Buffalo may be the exception. While the Patriots are always dangerous and Miami looks like a team on the rise, Buffalo has dominated the division the last 2 years and looks to be more improved this season for a run to the top. The AFC is stacked so it will be a war of attrition to get to the Super Bowl, but this one seems like a much safer bet — even if it results in an investment that most don’t feel comfortable with.
TAKE THE BUFFALO BILLS TO WIN THE AFC EAST (-220)
Odds to win AFC
Odds: +320 (bet $100 to win $320)
There isn’t a lot of return on investment for this one, but the key factor here is Buffalo locking down homefield advantage in the playoffs. If opponents have to come to Orchard Park to take their Super Bowl hopes away from them, it will be a tall order because the weather in Buffalo in January can be brutal and the Bills are much more accustomed to working in those conditions than the other elite teams in the AFC. Keep in mind, Bills fans, you don’t have to win the Super Bowl to win this bet.
TAKE THE BILLS TO WIN THE AFC (+320)
