Fearless Freddie’s Football Forecast

REBOUND. Fear not, faithful readers. Your Buffalo Bills will return to form this weekend in Highmark Stadium against the invading Tampa Bay Buccaneers and talented quarterback Baker Mayfield.

Much like the Bills last week in Florida, the Bucs will struggle mightily with the radically unfamiliar WNY weather. It will be their lone visit to a wintry venue this regular season.

The Bills will rebound nicely in front of the home faithful and embark on a new winning streak.

FREDDIE sees it this way:

BILLS 34, Buccaneers 21
