Why the Giants can cover
Buffalo’s offense is tremendous this season, but the team did struggle to only 29 rushing yards in the Week 5 loss to Jacksonville. New York has allowed only six passing touchdowns in five games, and there are also avenues for positivity from the Giants against Buffalo’s defense. The Bills allowed nearly 500 yards of offense in losing to Jacksonville in London, and Buffalo is now shorthanded following the loss of first-team All-Pro linebacker Matt Milano to injury.
The Bills are struggling badly against the run, giving up 5.8 yards per carry and more than 130 yards per game, and New York will have a dual-threat quarterback on the field with Tyrod Taylor under center. Buffalo is also giving up 5.7 yards per play, No. 26 in the NFL, and the Giants have a real weapon in Darren Waller at tight end. Waller caught eight passes for 86 yards a week ago, and he is averaging 63.7 receiving yards per game over the last five seasons, ranking near the top of the league among tight ends.

Why the Bills can cover
Josh Allen and Stefon Diggs lead an elite Buffalo offense that can keep constant pressure on New York. Allen is leading the NFL with a 73.1% completion rate this season, and he ranks in the top five of the league in passing yards, total offense, passing touchdowns, passer rating, and QBR. In the last 10 home games, Allen is averaging more than 275 passing yards per game with 27 touchdowns and six interceptions, and he is 9-1 in those outings. Allen’s top target is Diggs, who entered 2023 with five straight 1,000-yard seasons. He ranked in the top five of the NFL in receptions and receiving yards in 2022, and Diggs is one of only three players in the league with at least 500 receiving yards and five receiving touchdowns through five weeks.
With Allen and Diggs at the forefront, the Bills are averaging 31.8 points per game and scoring on half of offensive possessions. Buffalo is in the top four of the NFL in total yards per game, yards per play, red zone efficiency, and third-down efficiency, and the Bills are dynamic and versatile on that side of the ball. The Bills are also facing a New York defense that is giving up 30.6 points per game and 378.0 total yards per contest, with the fewest sacks (five) in the NFL this season.
