The Buffalo Bills are the top pick among NFL bookmakers to win the AFC and reach Super Bowl 57. But what are the best Bills bets to bet on the NFL futures markets? We have looked at the full betting board after sports betting is live and provincial legal in Ontario.
In January, the Bills rolled into Kansas City for the divisional round and a repeat of the 2020 AFC Championship Game. The game was an instant classic, which the Chiefs won 42-36 in overtime. The Chiefs won the OT coin toss, rolling through an exhausted and exhausted Bills defense to win it. This game was the final push for the NFL to change their OT rules and ensure both teams get possession during the playoffs in overtime.
The change comes too late for the Bills. But it wasn’t just the rule that cost the Bills. Buffalo couldn’t stop the Chiefs from scoring on their last three possessions of the game, including OT. The Bengals, meanwhile, forced an interception from Patrick Mahomes II in OT of the AFC championship game a week later, beating KC en route to the Super Bowl.
With that in mind, the Bills added linebacker Von Miller this offseason. Miller brings a championship resume to Buffalo. Last season, the Rams added Miller Midseason for their cover campaign. The move paid off. Miller delivered in the postseason, helping the Rams outrun Tom Brady in the playoffs and choking out Joe Burrow in Super Bowl 56. Miller was also Super Bowl 50 MVP when he won his first NFL title with the Denver Broncos.
Buffalo lost CB Levi Wallace in a free hand. The Bills will look to bolster their secondary education in the upcoming NFL draft.
Buffalo Bills futures odds to consider
The Bills won the AFC East for the second straight season last season and then demolished the Patriots in the wild card round. The Bills remain the team to support and beat in the AFC East.
Here are the key NFL futures odds for Bills and Bills players. Each market is listed with the best available price:
| market | Result | opportunities |

| Super Bowl 57 | victory | +750 at bet365 |
| AFC Championship | victory | +380 at Caesars |
| AFC East | victory | -180 at DraftKings |

Odds on DraftKings Ontario and Caesars Ontario, as well as bet365.
The value of these markets on betting sites is limited. And for a good reason. Since Tom Brady left the Patriots, the Bills have gotten more expensive. Their market remains tight despite improvements across the AFC. The conference has five new coaches and four new starting QBs.
With the advent of Canadian sports betting starting this week in Ontario, it might be counter-intuitive for new bettors to be cautious when betting. Especially if they tend to support the Bills. But these numbers demand it.
Where does it make sense to support the Bills now?
Buffalo Bill’s best bets backward
Bills win Super Bowl 57
OPPORTUNITIES: +750 at bet365
ANALYSIS: We’ll keep it short. If the Bills can’t win the Super Bowl this season, they may never win it. The Chiefs are clearly in decline, and not just because they lost Tyreek Hill. The Patriots are rebuilding. The Chargers, Raiders and Broncos are all threats, but none have had playoff success in their current form.
The Bengals jumped to the front of the pack last season and finally gave Burrow an offensive line, but this time they’ll bring out the best of everyone. It could all come down to Bills vs. Brady all over again. This time on the biggest stage in the world – at Super Bowl 57 in Glendale, Arizona.
Bills over 11.5 wins
OPPORTUNITIES: -125 at Caesar’s
ANALYSIS: The Bills finished last season 11-6 and easily won the AFC East. But they could have won 13 games. That 12th win shouldn’t be that elusive this time around. This year, the Bills have a comparatively soft schedule. They’ve also now beaten the Patriots twice in a row. The Bills kept much of their roster intact. They lost OC Brian Daboll to the Giants. But Allen is now a veteran. The real challenge remains adding the right parts with limited space for the cap.
Josh Allen becomes MVP
OPPORTUNITIES: +900 at Caesars
ANALYSIS: This market is very competitive. Aaron Rodgers is back with the Packers and is targeting an MVP three-peat. Brady has cemented his role as a GM/coach/player in Tampa Bay. It seems Rob Gronkowski’s return is a mere formality. With rumors of a potential Julian Edelman arriving in Tampa Bay, Brady could be nearing 50 TDs and 5,500 yards.
Joe Burrow, Patrick Mahomes II and a new and improved Russell Wilson in Denver are also threats. But the Bills and Allen have just enough potential to sway the MVP voters with a stellar regular-season performance. Especially if Allen can play better late in the season (after Thanksgiving). That’s what helped Rodgers win that honor for the past two seasons. Allen is at his sporting peak right now. This is his time to get promoted to the NFL’s top division.
