I’ve read (here actually but can’t recall the poster) that the best thing to do is bet $200 when the season starts for the Bills to win the AFC Championship Game and the Bills to go to the Super Bowl. 
 

Payout is around $20k, which would cover the cost of going to a Super Bowl. 
 

Obviously doesn’t help this year, but I expect to be in the Super Bowl hunt for a few more years minimum!

You're way off on the odds. You have the Bills at 100/1 to win the AFC.   I did what you said for 2 or 3 seasons (not this year) and I'd put down around $1,000 and the odds I got were around 4/1 to 6/1. I called it Super Bowl insurance and like most insurance plans (other than health) that are used to prevent a one-time big expense like if your transmission goes, I spent the $ and got nothing back. I gave up, but instead I just saved enough in 2024 to be able to go with what I put in the bank. 

 

Edit: I looked up the 2024 opening day odds & the Bills were +475 or 4.75/1 .  $200 would have gotten you $1,150 ($950 profit + your original $200)

Right on man, thanks for clearing that up.  I don't gamble, so I just took it at face value...which is ALWAYS a good choice lol
