- The DET offense has given up 3.0 points per game to defenses vs a league average of 5.7, so 70% of that gap is applied (x0.67).
- Opposing offense injuries (x1.02): Opposing top target Amon-Ra St. Brown is questionable. 1 opposing offensive lineman is out or questionable (Mays).
- Game environment (x0.84): Vegas total 50.5, implied 21.8 points for MIA (league avg 22.6); Underdog by 7: likely to pass more while trailing; Mild weather (84F, 11 mph wind): no weather adjustment.
