Call it a Super Bowl hangover or rust as the first game, but the Buffalo Bills made a mockery of the Los Angeles Rams. The Super Bowl favorite Bills came into SoFi Stadium to face one of the best offenses in football with Matthew Stafford and Cooper Kupp and won 31-10. It was supposed to be a possible Super Bowl preview, but it was as one-sided as it could get.
Buffalo Bills vs Los Angeles Rams game recap
The game was close… for the first quarter. The Bills’ offense dominated the Rams in every facet of the game as they finished with 415 total yards compared to the Rams’ 243 yards. They managed to win by 21 points and took terrible care of the ball as they ended up with 4 turnovers. If the Bills can beat the reigning champs by 21 with that many turnovers, imagine how good they will be when they clean up their mistakes in the next few weeks.
Who is the Super Bowl favorite?
The Bills came into Thursday Night Football as +600 favorites to win the Super Bowl at most sportsbooks, including DraftKings and FanDuel. However, the dominance the Bills showcased saw their odds drop to +500 at FanDuel Sportsbook. As for the Rams, they came into the game with +1100 odds to win this year’s Super Bowl and have now been pushed out to +1400. Oddsmakers took notice of their drubbing of the reigning World Champions, so if you’re interested in taking a Bills future this season, these might be the best odds you get, barring any unexpected losses.
Josh Allen MVP watch
The Bills quarterback came into this game as the +700 favorite to win the MVP this year and he showcased exactly why. Allen was 26/31 with 297 passing yards, 57 rushing yards, 3 touchdowns, and had a 112 QBR. As a result, FanDuel Sportsbook cut his odds to +600 to win the award. Fantasy football owners loved Allen’s performance, and if you have a Josh Allen MVP ticket, you will likely be smiling too. It was an incredible performance from the young QB, and we should expect more of the same for the rest of the season.
