Achane has proven just as capable a receiver then as a ball carrier. He’s drawn the second highest target share among RBs (22.1%) and is running the fourth most routes for the position, averaging just shy of 30 yards through the air per game.

In the touchdown market, I have buy-points set for all the big names. Josh Allen is -120 for me—any time I can get better than that, I’m in. Last week, he opened at +110 and closed around -120 to -125, and this TD line has been as short as -165 earlier this year. Allen ran for two touchdowns and threw for another last week, marking the 47th time he’s done both in a game—a new NFL record. With the Bills using their own version of the tush push and still chasing the Patriots for the division lead, Allen isn’t in a spot to slow down. He has four touchdowns over his last two games.

EV Model Rating
Star rating: 4 out of 5
Given their underlying strategic approach and game dynamics, the Miami Dolphins are forecasted by the model to call just 60.5 plays on offense in this contest: the lowest number among all teams this week.. The 5th-lowest number of plays in the NFL have been run by the Dolphins this year (a mere 52.4 per game on average).. The predictive model expects Tua Tagovailoa to throw 31.7 passes in this week's contest, on average: the 9th-fewest out of all QBs.. Opposing teams teams have been wary to test the pass defense of the Buffalo Bills, totaling the 7th-fewest attempts in football (a lowly 29.9 per game) this year.

When it comes to pass-blocking (and the importance it has on all pass game metrics), the O-line of the Dolphins profiles as the 2nd-worst in football this year.

Pick made: 3 hours ago
EV Model Rating
Star rating: 5 out of 5
Our trusted projections expect Khalil Shakir to garner 6.9 targets in this game, on average, ranking him in the 78th percentile when it comes to WRs.. Khalil Shakir has been a big part of his team's pass game, earning a Target Share of 21.5% this year, which ranks in the 81st percentile when it comes to WRs.. The Buffalo Bills offensive line ranks as the 3rd-best in football this year in protecting the passer, which has a positive influence on all pass attack metrics across the board.. Khalil Shakir grades out as one of the most sure-handed receivers in the league, hauling in a stellar 81.2% of passes thrown his way (adjusted for context) this year, ranking in the 95th percentile among wideouts.. The Miami Dolphins pass defense has surrendered the 6th-highest Adjusted Completion% in the league (68.3%) vs. wide receivers this year (68.3%).

Best Odds
Pick made: yesterday
EV Model Rating
Star rating: 5 out of 5
At a -9.5-point disadvantage, the Dolphins are enormous underdogs in this week's game, indicating much more of an emphasis on moving the ball through the air than their standard approach.. Our trusted projections expect the Miami Dolphins to be the most pass-oriented offense among all teams this week with a 61.8% pass rate, accounting for their underlying tendencies and matchup dynamics.. In this game, De'Von Achane is forecasted by the model to rank in the 99th percentile among running backs with 7.5 targets.. De'Von Achane has been a more important option in his team's pass attack this season (22.0% Target Share in games he has played) than he was last season (15.3%).. When it comes to air yards, De'Von Achane ranks in the towering 93rd percentile among running backs this year, averaging a striking 5.0 per game. (because they are often targeted behind the line of scrimmage, that is far more noteworthy than it sounds since most RBs have negative air yards).

Pick made: 7 hours ago
EV Model Rating
Star rating: 5 out of 5
The Buffalo Bills offensive line ranks as the 3rd-best in football this year in protecting the passer, which has a positive influence on all pass attack metrics across the board.. James Cook's possession skills have gotten better this season, with his Adjusted Catch% rising from 84.6% to 92.9%.. This year, the shaky Miami Dolphins defense has allowed a massive 39.0 adjusted receiving yards per game vs. opposing RBs: the 6th-most in the NFL.. The Miami Dolphins pass defense has been torched for the 2nd-highest Adjusted Completion% in the league (89.5%) vs. RBs this year (89.5%).. When it comes to defensive ends getting after the quarterback, Miami's collection of DEs has been very bad this year, grading out as the worst in the NFL.

EV Model Rating
Star rating: 4 out of 5
With a 9.5-point advantage, the Bills are a huge favorite in this week's contest, indicating much more of a reliance on running than their standard approach.. The predictive model expects the Bills to be the 3rd-least pass-focused offense among all teams this week with a 52.3% pass rate, given their underlying strategic approach and matchup dynamics.. Accounting for the game dynamics and the underlying approaches of each team, this game is predicted by the model to have just 122.5 offensive plays run: the fewest on the slate this week.. Opposing teams have averaged 28.2 pass attempts per game versus the Dolphins defense this year: 2nd-fewest in the league.. Dalton Kincaid's skills in grinding out extra yardage have tailed off this year, accumulating a measly 0.00 yards-after-the-catch (YAC) compared to a 6.16 rate last year.
