What drives the call
Buffalo is a slight road favorite, but Ty Johnson, Jordan Hancock and T.J. Sanders are questionable. Houston carries no game-day injury designations, although rookie defensive tackle Kayden McDonald is on injured reserve.
Our two-point Buffalo lean nearly matches the 1.5-point spread and leaves no meaningful margin for uncertainty. With both moneyline prices near even and the total centered on our projection, the market offers no responsible edge.
The projection does not clear the posted spread/run line, total, or moneyline after uncertainty and price are included. Passing protects the ledger from a low-quality position.
