The Buffalo Bills are the biggest underdog on the board in Week 3, as the bookmakers have the Minnesota Vikings favored by a monstrous 16.5 points.

Point spreads as large as that are usually reserved for the college football ranks. However, with the Vikings being considered Super Bowl contenders and the Bills currently looking like contenders for the No. 1 overall pick, one could understand where the Vegas oddsmakers may be coming from.

With that being said, the NFL is very much an “Any Given Sunday” league and there is a reason why wins and losses are not awarded based on what Vegas bookies or “experts” may think.

Despite the fact the Bills are over two touchdown underdogs heading to Minnesota, they are more than capable of pulling off the upset. Last season the Bills were nearly a 10-point underdog heading to Atlanta to face the reigning NFC Champion Atlanta Falcons yet they stunned the NFL world and sprung the upset.

Are they capable of doing the same on Sunday when they travel to Minnesota to face the 2017 NFC Champion runner-up Vikings? Let’s take a look at five keys to the Bills upsetting the Vikings on Sunday.
