The Minnesota Vikings (7-1) ride a 6-game winning streak as they go on the road to face the Buffalo Bills (6-2) at 1 p.m. Sunday at Highmark Stadium (FOX). Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Vikings vs. Bills odds, and make our expert NFL picks and predictions.
The Bills could be without QB Josh Allen. The line dropped from the Bills favored by 9.5 points down to 3.5 points in the span of 1 hour Wednesday, but their odds have since become shorter.
If Allen can’t go, backup Case Keenum will face his former team. Keenum’s career highlight was the playoff Minneapolis Miracle win over New Orleans in January 2018. The miracle was a game-ending touchdown pass to Stefon Diggs when both were Vikings and got to the NFC Championship Game. Now both are Bills.
This is the 1st time Diggs has played Minnesota since being traded to Buffalo. The Vikings used the pick traded from the Bills to draft Justin Jefferson – a trade that has worked out immensely for both teams. Look for Diggs and Jefferson to be the focus of both offenses in this game of revenge and star talent.
