Seattle Seahawks slight road favorites at Buffalo Bills in Week 9

The Seattle Seahawks are the betting favorites in their Week 9 road game at the Buffalo Bills.

The Seattle Seahawks (6-1) hit the road to battle the Buffalo Bills (6-2) Sunday in Week 9 at 1 p.m. ET at Bills Stadium in Orchard Park, N.Y. Below, we take a look at the early betting odds and lines at BetMGM Sportsbook.

The Seahawks withstood a furious comeback by the San Francisco 49ers in Week 8, hanging on for a 37-27 win in the Pacific Northwest to bounce back after the team’s first loss of the season (in Week 7 at Arizona). They were also able to grab a cover, snapping a mini-slide against the number, going 0-2 ATS the past two weeks. Seattle has scored at least 27 points in all seven of its outings, and it has been even more prolific on the road. The Seahawks have averaged 34.3 PPG in three road outings. This will be Seattle’s third trip to the Eastern Time Zone this season. They’re 2-0 SU/ATS after successful trips to Atlanta in Week 1 and Miami in Week 4.

The Bills slipped past the New England Patriots in Week 8, winning 24-21 while failing to cover a 4-point number. It hasn’t been pretty for the Bills over the past four games, frankly, as they’re averaging just 18.8 PPG after putting up 30.8 PPG in the first four contests. As a result, the Bills opened 4-0 SU/3-1 ATS, but they’re just 2-2 SU and 0-4 ATS across the previous four. After opening on a 4-0-1 Over run, the Under is 2-1 in Buffalo’s past three. QB Josh Allen has struggled lately, failing to toss a touchdown in each of the past two game after throwing two or more TDs in each of his first six outings.

Bills at Jets: Odds, prediction, betting lines and picks

Prediction

Bills 30, Jets 13

Money line (?)

The Jets are just horrible. They can’t score points and can’t stop anyone. This divisional rivalry can be interesting but Bills QB Allen will not have any trouble against this team. However, at -625, it isn’t worth the bet. AVOID.

Against the spread (?)

The Jets have yet to cover the spread in any game this season. Buffalo is 3-3 ATS. There is nothing about the Jets to trust against a team who is the favorite to win the division. Take the BILLS -12 (-110).

Over/Under (?)

Buffalo’s games have gone Over in four of six games. The Jets are 3-3 O/U. I don’t expect the Jets to score enough to carry their end of the deal. Take the UNDER (45.5).
