  • Opposing offense injuries (x1.05): Opposing quarterback Kyler Murray is questionable. 1 opposing offensive lineman is out or questionable (Darrisaw).
  • Game environment (x1.05): Vegas total 44.5, implied 23.8 points for BUF (league avg 22.6); Favored by 3: leaning run-heavy late; Indoors: no weather effect, a small boost for passing and kicking.
