Fearless Freddie’s Football Forecast

By FEARLESS FREDDIE 2 min read

IMPRESSIVE. The Buffalo Bills sparkled on offense Sunday afternoon in Texas, dismantling a notoriously tough defense on their way to a well deserved 36-31 season-opening victory.

Josh Allen directed his club near flawlessly in his debut under new head coach Joe Brady.

Although the defense wasn't dominant, pressure came at the right times and helped make the difference.

Expect the Bills to be running on Mafia-induced adrenaline in the regular season stadium debut tonight and delight the WNY faithful.

FREDDIE sees it this way:

BILLS 41, Lions 28
