These are three bold predictions for the Buffalo Bills in Week 17 against the Atlanta Falcons

The Buffalo Bills will be looking for another win on Sunday to ensure they stay at the top of the division and move one step closer to winning the AFC East for a second straight year. When looking at this matchup, the Buffalo Bills have some advantages that should work out in their favor.

Considering some of these mismatches, and how I believe the game will play out, these are three bold predictions for Week 17.

Buffalo Bills build a double-digit lead by halftime

Recently, the Buffalo Bills have done a much better job of getting off to a fast start. In the past two games, the Bills have scored four first half touchdowns which is a significant increase after having five first half touchdowns from Week 8 to Week 12.

The Falcons defense has struggled to keep opposing offenses off the scoreboard and on the season are giving up the fifth-most points per game at 26.7 points. If the previous weeks are any indication and considering the defense Josh Allen and company are facing, the Bills should once again be able to build a big lead which leads into the next prediction.
