Redskins vs. Bills -5.5 in Toronto
This isn’t a true home game as both teams will invade foreign soil for this one. The Bills are 0-3 in their journeys north since Toronto began hosting them. The Bills’ first problem is that this is a home field point spread and this is not a true home game. At least not compared to their normal advantage they enjoy. They are 3-0 at home this year with wins over the Patriots, Eagles and Raiders. Their second problem is that they are coming off a bye. Usually this is a good thing, but this year, perhaps to new rules essentially banning practice during the off week, it has been a disadvantage. Teams coming off their bye are 3-9 straight up and 4-7-1 against the spread so far this year. Their third problem is the Redskins’ defense isn’t as bad as Mike Vick and Cam Newton made them look the past two weeks. They have the ability to stop the run and pressure Ryan Fitzpatrick. Add all this up and you have the Redskins getting a big win and all of us diehards holding on to hope for at least one more week.
