The Pick is In
Monday’s contest pits a pair of 2020 playoff teams against each other in what should be an entertaining tilt in the Music City. Buffalo’s defense is for real and will be the difference in the contest.
Both teams will score some points, but the Bills’ defense creates enough stops for Buffalo to cover here and leave Nashville with a win.
