How Do The Buffalo Bills Do At Away Games During First 8 Weeks?
It’s a great time to be a fan of the Buffalo Bills, or to back the team at Ontario sports betting apps. The Bills are having their most successful stretch since the franchise lost four straight Super Bowls between 1990 and 1993.
This season, the Bills are 2-0, having outscored the Arizona Cardinals and Miami Dolphins by a combined 65-38. Quarterback Josh Allen has thrown for 371 yads and three touchdowns combined, while compiling a QBR of 89.4, in those contests. The Week 2 game was a big win on the road against an AFC East rival.
Even for the best teams, away games can be a challenge for NFL teams. At OntarioBets.com, as part of our insight for Ontario sportsbooks customers, we used Sports-Reference.com to find the records from the 2019-2023 seasons to see how the Bills perform at away games during the first eight weeks of the season.

Behind Allen and the sharp mind of head coach Sean McDermott, Buffalo has reached the playoffs in each of the past five seasons. But the Bills have yet to advance past the AFC Conference Championship Round during that stretch. Keep track of Buffalo Bills Super Bowl odds with us at OntarioBets.com.
This year, Buffalo ranks third on bet365 Ontario’s Super Bowl LIX odds board at +1100, behind the Kansas City Chiefs (+475) and San Francisco 49ers (+600). That speaks to the way that Allen and company have played in the team’s first two games, and what kind of expectations the team has for the 2024 season.
This week, the Bills host the Jacksonville Jaguars on Monday Night Football, with bet365 listing the home side as a five-point favorite, to go with a -245 moneyline on Buffalo (to +200 for Jacksonville). Our Bills vs.Ravens odds page helps you compare operators and keep track of any shifts in odds as Sunday’s game approaches.
Bills Have Thrived Early in Recent Seasons
Part of maintaining a sustained playoff-caliber franchise is building a good record early in each season, especially when it comes to winning games away from the Bills’ home confines of Highmark Stadium in Orchard Park, New York.
When it comes to regular-season win totals and earning victories away from home, that is something that Buffalo has excelled at of late, going 12-5 (.706) in the team’s first eight weeks of each season on road games between 2019 and 2023. Our Buffalo Bills betting guide offers deeper insight in wagering on the team at legal, regulated apps in Ontario.
During that stretch, Buffalo won the AFC East in all but one (2019) season (2019). The Bills posted point differentials that ranged from +55 (2019) to +194 (2021), which speaks to the foundation that McDermott and company have built with the Bills.
This year, BetRivers Ontario Sportsbook has the Bills at -121 odds to add a fifth AFC East title since 2019. The operator lists the New York Jets at +150 odds, the Dolphins at +800 and New England Patriots at +4000 going into Week 3.
