00:00We're just looking up to see how many games the Bills were favored in this year. I wanted to look at that. Do you know the answer?

00:06They were favored in...

00:08Might be quicker to do the games they weren't favored in. They were not favored in Miami in week two, right?

00:15They were favored against the Chiefs. We got the answer. Is it...

00:19They were favored? Two?

00:21That they weren't? Two games they weren't favored in. They were favored in 14 games this year.

00:26Okay, so they weren't favored in three then. Yeah, I mean the New England one, they're still a favorite even though they lose that game.

00:35against Baltimore and Miami, as you point out, and Houston and Baltimore. Houston, Baltimore, and Miami. They were underdogs in Houston?

00:42They were. Two-point underdogs. They were coming off a blowout loss. Yes. Yes. Makes sense. On the road.

00:46But they were favored in 14 games this year. The reason I bring that up is, I've got a tweet here about

01:20When did the doubt stop? October?

01:24The doubt stopped. It started 3-0. It started 3-0 and then went to Houston and Baltimore and lost.
