Ravens vs Bills: NFL Week 8 Betting Preview, Odds and Predictions
World Sports · 00:14:32 - Wednesday, 4 November 2026

The Baltimore Ravens visit the Buffalo Bills in NFL Week 8 on Sunday, with kickoff at New Highmark Stadium set for 1 p.m. ET. Buffalo enters as a 3-point home favorite according to DraftKings Sportsbook, and the Over/Under is 54.5. The Bills' only loss this season came by three points at home to the Patriots, while the Ravens (4-3) have lost two consecutive games without two-time league MVP Lamar Jackson, who has missed the past three games due to an ankle injury.

Team Statistics and Key Players

Josh Allen has led the Bills' offense to an NFL-best 32.8 points per game. He has thrown for 1,504 yards and rushed for 240 yards, accounting for 17 touchdowns with four interceptions. Running back James Cook, the NFL's leading rusher in 2025, has 627 rushing yards and six touchdowns. Buffalo's defense, however, allows 386.8 yards (31st) and 28.5 points per game (30th).

For Baltimore, Tyler Huntley has filled in at quarterback, with the Ravens scoring just 23 total points over the past two weeks. Jackson, when healthy, has 967 passing yards, six touchdowns, one interception, and 144 rushing yards in four games. Running back Derrick Henry has 579 rushing yards and seven touchdowns, while receiver Zay Flowers averages 101.3 receiving yards per game with three touchdowns.

Betting Trends and Prediction

The Ravens are 2-5 against the spread this season but 2-1 ATS on the road. The Bills are 4-2 ATS overall and 2-1 ATS at home. Five of Buffalo's six games have gone Over the total, while Baltimore is 4-3 to the Over. The teams met in Week 1 last season, with Buffalo winning 41-40 at home, and the Bills also eliminated the Ravens in the AFC Divisional Playoffs the previous season with a 27-25 home victory.

The SportsLine Projection Model, which simulates each game 10,000 times, has Buffalo covering the spread in 52% of simulations. The model favors the Bills -3, citing Allen's consistent production and the Ravens' uncertainty with Jackson potentially rusty after missing time.
