We have a 2-leg Same Game Parlay, which pays out at north of 13/1 with FanDuel Sportsbook. Let’s break it down.
Buffalo Bills -6.5 alt spread (+340)
To start this Same Game Parlay we have the Bills -6.5 on an alt spread. For a few reasons, I don’t think the Eagles are nearly as good as their 9-1 record might suggest and I’m chomping at the bit to fade them. Only two of their nine wins have been by double digits despite the fact that they’ve faced plenty of bottom-feeders, suggesting they’ve been far from dominant. Both of their games against the Commanders were super close for example, with Washington taking them down to the wire both times and even forcing overtime once.
Against the lowly Patriots in Week 1, New England was driving deep in their territory with a chance to take the lead in the closing seconds. Their narrow win over the Chiefs last week required a massive meltdown from Kansas City that included boneheaded penalties and a fluke turnover. All the metrics indicate Philly has been one of the luckiest teams in the league this year, and they’re due for some negative regression soon.
Jalen Hurts has already thrown three more interceptions than he did all of last season, and he’s been way less prolific as a runner than he usually is most likely due to a couple of nagging injuries. And the Eagles are still without Dallas Goedert, which has been a big blow to their passing Game.
Buffalo looked pretty great in their first Game after moving on from OC Ken Dorsey, as they put up 32 points in a blowout win against a normally very stingy Jets defense. Josh Allen averaged 8.6 yards per attempt with three touchdowns against a Sauce Gardner-led secondary, quieting a lot of his critics in the process.
The Bills got a ton of negative press after a couple of close losses to the Bengals and Broncos, which was always clearly an overreaction. Now is the time to buy low in the market while you still can.
Josh Allen to have 300+ passing yards (+240)
All we need for this same game parlay to cash is one stellar effort from Allen, and we’re getting better than 13/1. With one of the league’s best players, that’s a bet I’ll take any day. Allen isn’t really having a down year like some of the media coverage might’ve led you to believe, and in fact he has a career high in completion percentage so far. It might surprise you to learn his passer ratting right now is actually higher than it was in either of the previous two seasons.
It might be tough for the Bills to run on Philly’s defensive front, so I’d expect Allen to be airing it out early and often here. And the Eagles are giving up the fifth-most passing yards per Game in the NFL this season. Philadelphia’s secondary looked pretty good this past week against Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs, but that had more to do with the sorry state of Kansas City’s offense than anything else.
The Chiefs just don’t have any receivers who can exploit weaknesses. The week before against the Cowboys, the Eagles gave up 373 yards to Dak Prescott and got cooked by CeeDee Lamb to the tune of 191 yards. That doesn’t bode well for their chances of slowing down Stefon Diggs here.
