    This line bothers me
    When I first saw the line earlier in the week of Miami -3 over Buffalo, I thought that was too low. I thought it should of been -4.5.

    Then it is released that Manual and Stevie Johnson won't play, and it has seemed to drop to -2.5 in most places?

    What am I missing here? Buffalo is poor, Miami is surging. Are road division games that big of a difference?

    Long story short, yes! Betting on small road divisional favorites is a recipe for disaster.

      What about the injuries for Buffalo and the line not moving or even moving the wrong way?

        I think Buffalo has a very good home field advantage, much like the Chiefs, Saints, and Seahawks. Probably get more points given to them for the home field edge than other teams.

          Injuries don't really matter unless it is one of the top 5 QBs in the league.

            I'm not saying that Miami doesn't win this wk. However, if you were to make the same play over and over again, it would be a long term losing play for sure.

              Hard to prepare for 2nd string players when they don't play much. Theres no film to study on them, and believe it or not, that's huge in the NFL. I still like Miami. Buffalo might confuse them and have a decent 1st half, but Miami should adjust at halftime and win the game. GL

                  Buffalo has been great at home all year. Very well could be undefeated there if not for blowing games against the Pats and Chiefs.

                  And yes, being from Buffalo, I know that it is a very significant home field advantage. Plus, Miami is historically terrible in late season trips to the Ralph.
