Bills Open as 2.5 Underdogs

[Sweats]

I'm not so sure about this one.....the Ravens are going to play tough, trying to catch up in their division and i think LJ might break a couple of solid runs on us. I just hope our "bend, but don't break D" doesn't **** the bed.

If Buffalo fans think the team is being disrespected, It doesn't mean a whole lot.  But if the players and coaches think they're being disrespected, it might just help them keep their edge and hone their killer instinct.

Lamar Jackson is the sacred cow of the NFL. Only good things must be said. He can never be an underdog.

He's about to win another MVP, given how well Allen has played.

There difference between 1.5 and 2.5 is very insignificant. It will vary between books. 

I do think the line's going to move in the Bills favor, but it hasn't moved yet.

Wish we had Milano. This opponent he’s needed the most 

 

Maybe he will be the boost we need if we face them again in the playoffs. Injuries suck, but it’s nice to know we are playing like this now while we wait for two Pro Bowl players (Milano and Taron) to return.

Gotta see if taron AND Bernard start practicing and then see ravens injury report …. Speaking of - where’s the ravens week pregame thread?

I doubt it moves much. Ravens were -3.5 or -4.5 before the season began, so it's already moved through a key number. Being close to a pick em makes sense.

Not surprised and neither should you be. AFCCG finalist at Home. 2.5 is IMO is more than a respectful spread towards Buffalo than an insult. Buffalo being favored outright would just serve as bulletin board material for the Ravens.

Ravens defense definately isn't what it used to be..though they should be pumped up at the beginning for the prime time game.  Still think the Bills can score on them.

Between Jackson and Henry, big running threat...Bills have had issues with big backs in the past. Need Jones and Oliver to turn it up a notch and be real disruptors up the middle. This is that game where you could have really used Taron Johnson.

Unusual line.  This may be a down year for the Ravens, whether the media wants to accept it or not.  

 

Ravens defense is slow with a green DC. 

 

Ravens offense, even slower.  The right side of their OL is in slow motion like they both have back pain, and Henry is a plodder at this point in his career.

Vegas must not have read the other thread on this site about how the Bills should be ranked number 1 in all the polls…

 

Love the Bills having any fuel to add to the fire!!

 

Go Bills!

This line is completely based upon preseason expectations.  It takes a few weeks to "climatize" the NFL landscape.  Love the Bills' moneyline this week.

Um. Maybe.

 

I still feel a little suspicious of this team. They win this week, I'll go full on in support

 

Don't get me wrong, enjoy the wins, just seen this parade before lol

You know I was being sarcastic, right? That's how the media treats him.

I’m most peoples lists they always have Lamar ahead of Allen…They either big time haters or just pure ignorant idiot ***holes

Please someone show me another quarter back in this league playing better than Allen cause I sure the *uck cant find one… Kermit and Darnold…… Nah….

They ran for 275 yards RAN for that against Dallas.  
 

I expect the exact same script.

 

Just hold them to FGs I like our chances in a Bass v Tucker game.*

We been flying around the ball and tackling really good this year I’m not to concerned with there running plus we’ve always done a pretty bang up job on Lamar as well

This is the fastest we’ve looked on defense in some time imo

Very weird IMO.  We currently have the best offense in the NFL and our defense is definitely up there too.  

The Ravens defense looks weak.  Their offense look decent.  

 

I don't understand this.

Jags are winless, Miami's only win is against the Hapless Jags, and Baltimore went toe to toe (see what I did there) with KC in KC. 

Still seems like they should be no less than even.

Vegas begging us to pick the Bills and the points. 

[Unforgiven]

Lamar is still on track for mvp
