Why exactly are we favored by 3.5 in Baltimore?

No one will bet the other way for obvious reasons 

If the line was Baltimore favoured betters would smash money down on the Bills

 

This is the only way

OMG, this thread is ground breaking.

Maybe that's what I'm missing. What injuries do the ravens have?

I’m not sure they are that injured. Stanley the LT I think is still out. Lot of injured guys coming back with Dobbins and Humphrey and Peters. They lost some other guys but I don’t know they were big contributors

We just lost to Miami, we have a ton of injuries, we are both 2 and 1, the game is in Baltimore. Baltimore going to have revenge on their minds since the last time we saw them was the division game during covid.... What am I missing?

We have the best player in the NFL.

Allen vs Jackson is a prime time matchup. Only wish the Bills were at 80% to make it a fair fight. Our PS secondary might get dismantled. 

Make Jackson read and think he will stink. Let Jackson shuck and chuck and we will get *****. 

 

The dude doesn't read defenses. Doesn't see coverage zones. He can pass when the target is exploiting a zone seam because it's obvious. Short of that he can finesse the small ball into the window to get minimal gains until he decides to run.

 

We run a very disciplined zone coverage with 2 safeties that are very smart. Having poyer back will be critical.

 

I am not at all worried bout Jackson even though he is playing the position better than ever IMO. He has something to prove.

You think our defense is down some players? Baltimore is incredibly injured right now.

I'm not even factoring doom and gloom. Even if we won in Miami I see this game as a pickem

Have you seen Baltimore’s defense?  Our offense?  How does that mix look to you?

Did anyone miss the Patriots game besides Stanley? They were more beat up against the Dolphins a week earlier

Jackson has had a couple of his lowest output games vs Bills. We’ll see if McD , Frazier and Co can do it again. 

[muppy]

my answer to why the Bills are favored?  Their names are Diggs and Allen. ELITE COMBO people.

It will change as soon as the injury reports lists 10 players

10?  That’s it?

Ive seen most Ravens games. It seems Lamar bails them out every week with miracle plays. If you stop him they are below average. Several players on IR and a young secondary, avg OL and up and down DL. You have to take away his TE and top WR. New issue is weather. It could be non stop rain sat-sun.

Adam, I don’t have time to recite everything, but please just google NFL team offense and defense.  Then break it down to yards, passing, rushing, and points.  Compare the two teams and you have you’re abundantly clear answer.  Don’t get wrapped around the axle bud on one pain in the ars loss to a team us 50 yr olds hate from the 70’s.

 

Dont forget to look at baltimores opponents for the Ravens and us.  Our first two teams were the world champs and the AFC #1 seed.  Who was the Ravens?  Look at this stuff and you’ll answer you’re question.

 

Im on a work trip so I don’t have the time to transpose, but I promise you look at the data, and you would’ve had the answer to you’re question before you started this thread.  You’re a newbee, so welcome brother.  If you’re a real Bills guy, you’re going to get a very warm welcome as you continue to post.  It was a good question.  Hopefully, some of the guys gave you fruit Ville answers.

The Bills’ shell defense is Jackson’s kryptonite.

A healthy bills team I agree. But not this injury riddled team

Baltimore is just as injured

Josh Allen is ***** terrifying.

The way I see it so far, Josh Allen’s worst day in the office so far this year was 67% completed passed for 400 yards and 2TDs. Oh, and tack on 47 rushing yards as well.
