The Buffalo Bills and Detroit Lions have a lot in common.
Both teams are extremely respected by Las Vegas oddsmakers, their tortured fan bases crave high-level football more than oxygen, and they’ll likely go as far in the NFL playoffs as their talented quarterbacks will take them.
Josh Allen’s Bills and Jared Goff’s Lions meet Sunday afternoon at Ford Field in a game many are anointing as a potential Super Bowl LIX preview. Besides, we’ve all had enough of “Patrick Mahomes and Friends” in February.
I’m kidding, Chiefs fans. Deep breaths.
The ascension of Buffalo and of Detroit isn’t too surprising, especially if you peeked at Super Bowl odds before the season. Sure, the Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers had shorter prices, but the Bills and Lions were right there.
