Bills at Ravens spread, odds, picks: Expert predictions for Week 4 game between Josh Allen and Lamar

Through the first three weeks of the NFL season, the Buffalo Bills and Baltimore Ravens look like two of the best teams in the league and a potential AFC Championship matchup later in the year. They meet on Sunday in Baltimore, with the Bills coming in as a field goal favorite on the road.

Kickoff is set for 1 p.m. ET from M&T Bank Stadium. CBS has the coverage.

The Bills are on the road for the third time in four weeks to open the season and looking to rebound from a tough 21-19 loss in Miami. Despite throwing for 400 yards and a pair of touchdowns, Josh Allen missed on a potential go-ahead touchdown pass on fourth down late in the game and then ran out of time when Isaiah McKenzie was unable to get out of bounds as time expired.

It was an obvious off week for an offense that scored 72 points in the season’s first two games.

If Baltimore has had a weakness so far this season, it has been in the secondary, allowing a league-worst 353 passing yards per game. No other team in the league has allowed more than 300 yards, so it should be a good opportunity for Allen and the Bills’ offense to put more points on the board.

Speaking of putting points on the board, that has not been a problem for Jackson and the Ravens’ offense. Jackson’s offseason bet on himself in terms of his contract has been a huge success, as he has been a one-man wrecking crew offensively. He has already accounted for 12 touchdowns this season (10 passing, two rushing) and is playing some of the best football of his career. He looks like an early MVP front-runner through the first three games.

The Ravens are 2-1 against the spread this season but 0-1 at home. They are also only 7-11 as home underdogs during the John Harbaugh era and have lost each of their past two games as home underdogs.
