The public has bet the UNDER down to 47.5 (-110) after it opened @ 49.5 (-115).

Pros

  • THE BLITZ projects the Kansas City Chiefs to be the most pass-oriented team on the slate this week with a 65.8% pass rate, based on their underlying tendencies and matchup dynamics.
  • THE BLITZ projects this game to have the 2nd-largest volume of plays run out of all the games this week at 136.5 plays, given the tendencies of each team and game dynamics.
  • THE BLITZ projects JuJu Smith-Schuster to accrue 7.3 targets in this contest, on average, ranking in the 80th percentile among WRs.
  • JuJu Smith-Schuster has been a much bigger part of his offense’s pass attack this season (18.3% Target Share in games he has played) than he was last season (13.3%).
  • The Kansas City Chiefs O-line profiles as the 10th-best in the NFL this year in protecting the QB, which has a strong effect on all passing attack statistics across the board.
Cons

  • The weather report calls for 12-mph wind in this game. High wind usually means reduced pass volume (and increased run volume) and worse passing effectiveness.
  • Opposing offenses have averaged 33.6 pass attempts per game vs. the Buffalo Bills defense this year: 8th-least in football.
  • The Buffalo Bills defense has given up the 9th-least receiving yards per game in the league (just 142.0) versus WRs this year.
  • The Buffalo Bills pass defense has shown strong efficiency vs. wide receivers this year, yielding 7.33 yards-per-target to the position: the 6th-least in football.
  • The Buffalo Bills pass defense has performed very well when opposing wide receivers have gotten into space, giving up an average of 3.40 yards-after-the-catch this year: the least in the NFL.
