Fearless Freddie’s Football Forecast
SETBACK. No reason for the Bills Mafia to panic. No big deal. Buffalo lost a road game to a strong Baltimore team more than eager to step up for a national audience. It happens.
Expect the Bills to bounce back this weekend in Texas against the Houston Texans.
The banged up Buffalo defense will right itself and Josh Allen and the offense will have another outstanding day.
FREDDIE sees it this way:
Bills 27, TEXANS 22
