Prediction: Bills 24, Panthers 21

Buffalo isn’t getting nearly enough credit as touchdown underdogs.

The Bills have a clear advantage with McDermott as their head coach. He knows both the Carolina offense and defense like the back of his hand. That’s valuable.

Not to mention Joe Webb was on the Panthers a few weeks ago and Mike Tolbert was on the team last season.

"“It’s not about what everybody else is doing, it’s about what we do,” Tolbert said. “We know that Carolina is a good football team, obviously, but we also know what we can exploit and we know what we have to do to beat them. It’s not about a big return home or this or that, it’s about going out at 1:00 on Sunday and getting a win.”"

LeSean McCoy proved why he’s one of the best backs in the league and he’s primed for another big game.
