*8* SURE SHOT on Buffalo Bills.

The Buffalo Bills had plenty of chances in their lost to the Eagles last Sunday, but they simply couldn't execute when the game was on the line. They face a must win situation on the road at Washington this week, and I like their chances of knocking off the Redskins. My money is on the visitors in the nation's capital.

Here are my keys to the game:

1. Previous History - The Bills have won six straight versus Washington dating back to 1992. Washington has not been a good bet coming off a win the previous week, going 1-6 ATS in their last 7 games following a straight up win.

2. Shady McCoy - The Bills RB was not in a good mood after last week's loss at Philly. He's coming into this week's game with a chip on his shoulder, and he should take care of business against a Redskins defense that ranks 24th in the NFL against the run.

3. X-Factor - Sammy Watkins has 14 catches for 348 yards and four TDs in his last three games, and Tyrod Taylor has the NFL's 5th best passer rating of 100.9.

Selection: This is a play on the Buffalo Bills (8*)
