Week 5: Bills Visit Rams on Monday Night After Buffalo's First Loss

The Buffalo Bills visit the Los Angeles Rams on Monday night, October 12. Buffalo is 3-1 after a 29-26 home loss to New England in which it was outgained 405 to 340 and D.J. Moore re-injured his shoulder. Los Angeles is 2-2 after a 24-20 win at Philadelphia in which Matthew Stafford threw 51 passes, Puka Nacua had 125 yards in his return and Kyren Williams scored twice; Aaron Donald missed that game with back soreness.

Buffalo's turnovers

Seven in the past two games.

Nacua back, Donald uncertain

The Rams' offense is whole; the defense depends on Donald's back.

Josh Allen on the road

One touchdown pass in the past two games.

Buffalo's offense is still the better one

One hundred twenty-seven points in four games, the most in the league.

Los Angeles has won two of three

Stafford's volume and Nacua's return make this a 3-point game.

Turnovers decide it

Buffalo has given it away seven times in two weeks, which is why the confidence is Medium.

A Medium road lean to close the week.
