Buffalo Bills vs. New Orleans Saints Pick & Prediction NOV 25TH 2021
It’s the final Thanksgiving Day football game, and it’s between the Bills and the Saints. Buffalo was recently throttled by the Indianapolis Colts and is 1-2 in their last three games. It seems as if the team that was red hot to start the season is starting to cool off.
Thursday, they’ll face off against an injured Saints team, giving them a chance to bounce back. They better not waste it.
The New Orleans Saints have had a tough go since losing a few key players. They’ve lost three straight games, most recently, to the Philadelphia Eagles. A big win is necessary to get back on track, but that’s easier said than done.
They aren’t facing a team; they’ll be able to walk over easily, especially with all their injuries. Let’s take a look at the betting odds and lines.

Bills vs. Saints Betting Trends and Preview
Despite going 1-2 in their last three games, the Bills are regarded as one of the league’s best. There is no denying how incredible their offense can be, but it seems to have stalled out.
Scoring just 15 points against the Colts last week is quite uncharacteristic for them. However, the week prior, they were able to put up 45 points against the New York Jets.
The inconsistency is the real problem, and it needs to be addressed. Perhaps, instead of trying to light up the scoreboard, they can focus on just moving the ball downfield.
Going three and out has been a big issue, something they’ll need to fix as well. With Josh Allen at quarterback, the Bills shouldn’t have a difficult time fixing these concerns.
The main problem for New Orleans is all of the injuries that have piled up this season. Jameis Winston is done for the year, and now, Alvin Kamara could be out this week as well. With all of these injuries, it’s tough to say the Saints have a chance in this one.
The only advantage they really have is that they’ll be playing at home. They also have a seasoned head coach.
Having a head coach that has dealt with injuries such as these before definitely helps. Payton can come up with a solid game plan to take down the Bills.
Of course, this won’t be an easy task, but perhaps he can keep the score within 4.5-points. Still, with all those injuries to their star players, the Saints come in at a massive disadvantage.
Bills vs. Saints ATS Pick

The Bills desperately need to get a streak going if they want to win the AFC East. The Patriots have already surpassed them in the division, and there isn’t much time left. They have a strong offense and only need to cover 4.5-points.
Considering all of the injuries piled up on the sidelines for New Orleans, the Bills should take this one.
The Bills were performing great against the spread up until recently. This game gives them a good chance to get another win at the sportsbook as well. We trust that the Bills will be able to win this game on the road and cover the 4.5-point spread.
