Sports picks for Saturday, October 17, 2026

KC: 29.5 points per game to LAC's 16.8

The Chiefs score 29.5 a game over four games while the Chargers score 16.8 over five. Last season they were dead even, 21.3 for Kansas City and 21.6 for Los Angeles. A gap this wide after a year of parity is partly real and partly a short-sample spike, so some pull back toward the middle is likely. Kansas City at home has the edge, but sizing it off this early number alone would overstate it.

P Edge side won; final 6-22

ORST: 41.8 points per game to WSU's 18.5

Oregon State is scoring 41.8 points a game over six games after 18.2 last season, while Washington State has dropped to 18.5 from 22.5. Oregon State's scoring jump is massive for a six-game sample and likely to come down some. WSU's slide is smaller and fits a team that has also lost its passing game. The gap is real this season, but the Oregon State side of it is the part most likely to move.

CAR: 301.3 team passing yards per game to PHI's 170.6

Carolina throws for 301.3 a game over four games, while Philadelphia sits at 170.6 over five. That is a huge jump for the Panthers from 179.3 last season, and four games is a small window for a change that big. The Eagles are throwing less than their 194.3 last year, which suggests a team leaning on other ways to move the ball. Carolina's passing number is the one most likely to come down, especially on the road in Philadelphia.

P Edge side won; final 25-14

IND: 24.8 points per game to TEN's 11.6

Indianapolis scores 24.8 a game through five games and Tennessee scores 11.6. The Titans have slipped from 16.7 last season, while the Colts sit a little under their 27.4. Five games is a modest sample, but both numbers rhyme with last year, so Tennessee's offense looks like the weaker unit for real. In a game where one side struggles to reach the teens, the Colts can play from ahead and dictate pace.

P Edge side lost; final 26-20

UGA: 46.2 points per game to AUB's 26.8

Georgia is scoring 46.2 points a game over six games, up sharply from 32.1 last season, while Auburn is at 26.8 over five, exactly where it finished last season. Auburn's number is stable and believable. Georgia's is a big leap in a short window and likely includes softer early opponents, so some of it should come back down. Auburn has to score with a Georgia offense playing well above its own last-season level, on the road.

NYJ: 0.6 turnovers committed per game to NE's 2.2

The Jets have given the ball away 0.6 times a game over five games while New England coughs it up 2.2 times. Both have flipped from last season, when the Jets were at 1.35 and the Patriots at 0.94. Turnover rates swing a lot over five games, so expect both to drift back toward the middle. The edge is real on the sheet, but pricing this game as if New England will keep giving away two a game leans too hard on a short run.

P Edge side lost; final 19-26

ORST: 370.5 team passing yards per game to WSU's 158.7

WSU is at 158.7 team passing yards per game over 6 games; ORST is at 370.5 over 6 games. Those are this season's games through Oct 16. Last season WSU was at 210.5 over 13 games and ORST at 225.8 over 12 games.

BAL: 164.4 rushing yards per game to CLE's 94.2

Baltimore runs for 164.4 a game across five games and Cleveland manages 94.2, so the Ravens are the side that sets the tempo on the ground. This is who both teams were last season too: 156.6 for Baltimore and 97 for Cleveland over 17 games. With five games lining up almost exactly with a full prior year, the gap looks real. Expect Baltimore to lean on the run and shorten the game, which favors thinking about clock control and time of possession in this spot.

P Edge side lost; final 10-13

KC: 6.58 yards per play to LAC's 4.78

Kansas City gains 6.58 yards a play over four games, and the Chargers gain 4.78 over five, after both sat near 5 last season. The Chiefs had six plays of 20 or more yards in their last game, led by Kenneth Walker III's 76-yard run and two long Mahomes throws to Tyquan Thornton. The Chargers managed two, both runs. Explosive plays inflate a small sample, so Kansas City's rate should cool, but the big-play edge tilts this game toward the Chiefs.

P Edge side won; final 6-22

UK: 179.8 rushing yards per game to OU's 95.8

Kentucky is running for 179.8 yards a game over six games, up from 139.2 last season, while Oklahoma is at 95.8 over five, down from 118.5. Kentucky will want to grind this one on the ground and shorten the game. Oklahoma's drop could reflect a shift toward the pass rather than a broken run game, and five games is a small sample. Kentucky's identity looks clearer, and it brings that style on the road.

UTAH: 42.8 points per game to COLO's 18.6

Utah is scoring 42.8 points a game over five games, close to its 41.3 last season, while Colorado is at 18.6 over five, near its 20.9. Both teams are scoring about where they did last season, so this gap looks like who they are. Utah's run game carries that output and travels well. Colorado has to find points it hasn't produced in either season to keep this close.

DAL: 49.2% third-down conversion rate to GB's 27.6%

Dallas converts 49.2% of third downs over five games, while Green Bay is at 27.6%. That is a big flip: last season the Packers were at 48.8% and the Cowboys at 41.1%. Third-down rates bounce around over five games, so Green Bay is the likelier of the two to snap back toward last year. Dallas extending drives is the current story, but expect the gap to narrow at Lambeau.

KC: 0.5 turnovers committed per game to LAC's 2.6

Kansas City turns it over 0.5 times a game across four games, while the Chargers are at 2.6 over five. The Chiefs were already careful last season at 0.88, but the Chargers have more than doubled their 1.24. Turnover rates are among the most volatile numbers early in a season, so the Chargers figure to clean some of this up. Ball security still favors Kansas City in this spot, just by less than the raw gap shows.

P Edge side won; final 6-22

UVA: 0.33 turnovers committed per game to SMU's 1.8

Virginia has given the ball away just twice in six games, 0.33 a game, after averaging 1 a game last season. SMU is at 1.8 a game over five, up from 1.46. Turnover rates swing hard in small samples, and Virginia's number is unusually low compared to its own history, so expect it to drift up. SMU's throw-heavy offense gives defenses more chances, which is the side of this gap more likely to hold.

MIA: 49.6 points per game to FSU's 31

Miami is scoring 49.6 points a game over five games, a big jump from 30.9 last season, while Florida State is at 31 over six, close to its 33 last season. FSU's number looks like what it is. Miami's is a five-game spike that will probably cool against tougher defenses. The gap says Miami is the side controlling the scoreboard, with FSU needing a game well above its own baseline to keep up.

PITT: 299.8 team passing yards per game to BC's 172.8

PITT is at 299.8 team passing yards per game over 6 games; BC is at 172.8 over 5 games. Those are this season's games through Oct 16. Last season PITT was at 273.3 over 13 games and BC at 280.2 over 12 games.

BUF: 6.78 yards per play to LV's 5.16

Buffalo is at 6.78 yards a play over 5 games, up from 5.94 last season, and Josh Allen hit 6 plays of 20-plus last game, including 57 yards to Khalil Shakir. Vegas is at 5.16, a real jump from 4.35 last season with Kirk Cousins spreading it to Ashton Jeanty and Brock Bowers. Five games is a short run, so both numbers could drift toward last season. Buffalo's big-play rate is the style setter here, and Vegas has to keep pace.

P Edge side won; final 33-30

BAL: 6.36 yards per play to CLE's 4.72

Baltimore gains 6.36 yards a play over five games, and Cleveland gains 4.72, close to how they finished last season at 5.92 and 4.33. The Ravens' last game had three plays of 20 or more yards, two of them Justice Hill runs, with Tyler Huntley at quarterback. Cleveland actually had five, mostly Deshaun Watson throws to Isaiah Bond. Baltimore's efficiency edge has a full season behind it, but the Browns can still produce big plays through the air.

P Edge side lost; final 10-13

NU: 203 rushing yards per game to MSU's 121.7

Northwestern is running for 203 yards a game over five games, up from 160.2 last season, while Michigan State is at 121.7 over six, almost identical to its 122.8. MSU's number is steady and believable. Northwestern's jump is real progress in five games, though some of it should fade against conference fronts. Northwestern will try to win on the ground in East Lansing, and MSU has shown no sign of matching that volume.

LAR: 6.04 yards per play to ARI's 4.42

Arizona is getting 4.42 yards a snap through 5 games, down from 5.18 last season, while the Rams sit at 6.04, close to last season's 6.15. The Rams number looks like who they are. Arizona's drop is the bigger story, and Jacoby Brissett's three chunk throws last game show the offense can still find Elijah Higgins and Kendrick Bourne downfield. Expect Matthew Stafford's group to move the ball, so Arizona's path is sustaining drives without many explosives.

P Edge side lost; final 18-16

Cam Jurgens (C) is out for BAL

Baltimore's center Cam Jurgens is out Sunday at Cleveland with a concussion, ruled out Oct 17. The center snaps every play and sets protection calls, so a backup is handling that job against the Browns. The sheet does not name the replacement. Offensive line changes in the middle of the line can mean more pressure up the gut and a messier run game, so keep that in mind on Ravens rushing and sack numbers.

P Edge side lost; final 10-13

Broderick Washington Jr. (DT) is out for BAL

Defensive tackle Broderick Washington Jr. will miss Baltimore's game in Cleveland with an ankle injury, ruled out Oct 17. Out means he sits Sunday. The sheet does not say who takes his snaps, so the Ravens lean on the rest of their interior rotation. That matters most for how well Baltimore holds up against the Browns' run game.

P Edge side lost; final 10-13

Mike Hall Jr. (DT) is out for CLE

Cleveland loses defensive tackle Mike Hall Jr. for Sunday against Baltimore with an ankle injury, ruled out Oct 17. He will not play. The Browns fill his snaps from the rest of the interior line, though the sheet does not name who. Against a Ravens team that also lost its center, the middle of the line is thinner on both sides of this game.

P Edge side won; final 10-13

Keyshaun Elliott (LB) is out for CHI

Chicago will play Atlanta without linebacker Keyshaun Elliott, who was ruled out Oct 17 with a quadriceps injury. Out means he is not playing Sunday. The sheet does not say how big his role is or who replaces him, so the impact is hard to measure. For a bettor, this is a depth note: it matters more if other Bears linebackers show up on the report.

P Edge side won; final 31-23

Ross Matiscik (LS) is out for JAX

Jacksonville loses its long snapper for Sunday against Houston because of a shoulder injury, ruled out on Oct 17. Out means he will not play. A long snapper handles every punt, field goal and extra point snap, so the replacement is likely a fill-in who rarely does the job, and the sheet does not name who that is. In a close game, a shaky operation on kicks is the thing to keep in mind with totals and late scoring.

P Edge side lost; final 34-31

Jalen Pitre (S) is out for HOU

Pitre is ruled out for Sunday at Jacksonville with a shoulder injury, so Houston plays this one without him in the secondary. Out is final: there is no game-time call to wait on, and the number you see now already has his absence in it. The sheet doesn't name who takes over at safety, so check Houston's depth chart before betting on the Jacksonville passing game.

P Edge side won; final 34-31

Montaric Brown (CB) is out for JAX

Brown will miss Sunday against the Texans with a hamstring injury, reported Oct 17. Out means he will not play, so Jacksonville's cornerback group is one body thinner against Houston's passing game. The fact sheet does not name his replacement, so check the depth chart before kickoff if you are looking at Texans receiver props.

P Edge side lost; final 34-31

Antoine Winfield Jr. (S) is out for TB

Tampa Bay ruled out safety Antoine Winfield Jr. for Sunday against Pittsburgh with a rib injury, the Buccaneers' official site reports. He is a centerpiece of the Bucs' secondary, so losing him matters more than a typical defensive absence. Out means he does not play. For a bettor, the Steelers' passing game gets an easier look at the back end of this defense.

P Edge side lost; final 26-19

CHI: 3 fourth-down attempts per game to ATL's 0.6

Chicago is going for it 3 times a game over 5 games, up from 1.71 last season, while Atlanta has dropped to 0.6 from 1.65. Five games of fourth-down calls swing on game script, so part of this is situations. The coaching lean is the takeaway: Chicago will keep drives alive in plus territory, which pushes possession length and can turn field goal tries into touchdowns or empty trips.

P Edge side won; final 31-23

Tyler Scott (WR) is out for LV

The Raiders placed Tyler Scott on the practice-squad injured list Monday with an undisclosed issue. He was a practice-squad receiver, so his absence has no real effect on Las Vegas' plans against Buffalo. Bettors can ignore this one when sizing up the game.

P Edge side lost; final 33-30

Rashee Rice (WR) is out for KC

Kansas City will be without Rashee Rice against the Chargers because of hamstring and knee issues. Rice is a top target in the Chiefs' passing game, so those looks get spread among the other receivers and tight ends. A hamstring and a knee together could keep him out more than one week, and the boost to the other receivers should last as long as he is out.

P Edge side won; final 6-22

Baker Mayfield (QB) is out for TB

Mayfield's thumb keeps him out Sunday against Pittsburgh, and the Buccaneers lose their starting quarterback. A thumb on the throwing side can linger, so this may not be a one-week issue. The backup takes over against a Steelers defense, and the Tampa Bay passing game should be judged on that player, with lower expectations for the receivers.

P Edge side lost; final 26-19

Jalyx Hunt (LB) is out for PHI

Linebacker Jalyx Hunt will miss Philadelphia's game against Carolina with ankle and knee injuries, ruled out Oct 17. Out means he does not play Sunday. The sheet does not say who takes his snaps. Along with the quarterback and a starting corner out, the Eagles are thinner than usual on both sides of the ball.

P Edge side lost; final 25-14

Teven Jenkins (G) is out for CLE

Guard Teven Jenkins is out for Cleveland against Baltimore with a back injury, ruled out Oct 17. Out means he sits Sunday, and a backup takes his spot on the line. The sheet does not name the replacement. A reshuffled interior can affect both the run game and how long the quarterback has to throw.

P Edge side won; final 10-13

GB: 1.8 takeaways per game to DAL's 0.4

Green Bay forces 1.8 turnovers a game over 5 games, while Dallas has managed 0.4. Takeaways swing a lot week to week, so part of this gap will shrink. In this game the Packers carry the better chance of a short field, and Dallas has shown little ability to steal possessions back.

Kyle Monangai (RB) is out for CHI

Monangai is dealing with both a thumb and a toe injury, and Chicago has already ruled him out for Sunday in Atlanta, so there is no game-day suspense here. Out means he will not play. The report does not say who takes his carries, so check the Bears' final depth chart before leaning on any Chicago running back in this matchup.

P Edge side won; final 31-23

Anfernee Jennings (LB) is out for NO

New Orleans loses linebacker Anfernee Jennings for Sunday at the Giants with a knee injury, ruled out Oct 17. Out means he does not play. The sheet does not name who takes his snaps. It thins the Saints' front seven, which matters for how well they set the edge against the Giants' run game.

P Edge side won; final 34-27

Kevin Winston Jr. (S) is out for TEN

Tennessee safety Kevin Winston Jr. is out Sunday at Indianapolis with a quadriceps injury, reported Oct 16. Out means he will not play. His snaps at the back end go to the next safety up, so the Titans lose a body in a secondary that has to cover the Colts. Keep in mind that the replacement is untested when you look at Indianapolis passing numbers.

P Edge side won; final 26-20

GB: 4.7 yards per play allowed to DAL's 6.42

Green Bay's defense gives up 4.7 yards a snap over 5 games, and Dallas allows 6.42 over the same stretch, so one unit is getting stops and the other is getting carved. The sheet has no opponent list or prior-season number, so how much schedule helped either side is unknown. Five games is enough to take the gap seriously, and it points to Dallas having a harder time moving the ball at Lambeau than Green Bay will.

Jordan Elliott (DT) is out for TEN

Elliott is out for Sunday at Indianapolis for a personal reason, reported Oct 17. This is not a physical injury, so his absence says nothing about his health past this week. Tennessee is a defensive tackle short against the Colts, a spot to keep in mind for Indianapolis run game props.

P Edge side won; final 26-20

Jaylon Carlies (LB) is out for IND

Indianapolis will be without linebacker Jaylon Carlies against Tennessee after he was ruled out Oct 17 with a rib injury. Out means he is not playing Sunday. The sheet does not say who picks up his snaps. It is a depth hit at linebacker, more relevant to Titans run and short passing numbers than to the spread on its own.

P Edge side lost; final 26-20

Adonai Mitchell (WR) is out for NYJ

Adonai Mitchell is out for Sunday's game at New England with a finger injury, reported Oct 16. Out means he will not suit up, so the Jets play this one a receiver short. The report does not name who takes his snaps, so any receiver prop for this game should wait until the Jets' active list shows who fills his spot.

P Edge side lost; final 19-26

Karon Prunty (CB) is out for NE

New England's cornerback Karon Prunty is out against the Jets with a hamstring injury, ruled out Oct 17. He sits Sunday. Combined with Carlton Davis III also being out, the Patriots are down two corners for this game. That puts more on the remaining depth in coverage, which is the spot to think about for Jets passing numbers.

P Edge side won; final 19-26

Carlton Davis III (CB) is out for NE

Cornerback Carlton Davis III will miss New England's game against the Jets with a neck injury, ruled out Oct 17. Out means he does not play. Karon Prunty is also out, so the Patriots go into Sunday two corners short. The sheet does not name who steps in, but a thinner secondary is the angle for Jets receivers and passing totals.

P Edge side won; final 19-26

Dylan Parham (G) is out for NYJ

The Jets will play New England without guard Dylan Parham, ruled out Oct 17 with a knee injury. He will not play Sunday, so a backup takes his spot on the line. The sheet does not name who. A line change inside matters most for the Jets' run game and pass protection in this one.

P Edge side lost; final 19-26

Theo Johnson (TE) is out for NYG

The Giants ruled out tight end Theo Johnson for Sunday against the Saints with a neck injury. Out means he does not suit up, so the backup tight ends take his snaps as a blocker and receiver. Bettors looking at Giants tight end props should check who starts in his place, since that player's role grows this week.

P Edge side lost; final 34-27

Colton Hood (CB) is out for NYG

Rookie corner Colton Hood is out for the Giants against New Orleans with a concussion, ruled out Oct 17. He sits Sunday. Safety Tyler Nubin is also out, so the Giants' secondary is down two players. That is the spot to think about for Saints passing numbers.

P Edge side lost; final 34-27

Kaden Elliss (LB) is out for NO

Elliss will miss Sunday against the Giants with a calf injury, reported Oct 17. Out means he is not playing, so New Orleans is down a linebacker against the New York offense. The fact sheet names no replacement, so check who takes his snaps before leaning on Giants rushing or short passing props.

P Edge side won; final 34-27

Tyler Nubin (S) is out for NYG

Safety Tyler Nubin will miss the Giants' game against New Orleans with a neck injury, ruled out Oct 17. He does not play Sunday. With cornerback Colton Hood also out, the Giants are short two defensive backs. The back end is thinner, which matters most against deep shots and Saints passing totals.

P Edge side lost; final 34-27

AJ Dillon (RB) is out for CAR

Dillon has an ankle injury and is ruled out for Sunday at Philadelphia. The sheet doesn't show his workload, so how much Carolina loses is unclear. The rest of the backfield takes his carries.

P Edge side won; final 25-14

Michael Carter II (CB) is out for PHI

Cornerback Michael Carter II is out for Philadelphia against Carolina with an abdomen injury, ruled out Oct 17. He sits Sunday. The sheet does not name his replacement. It is a coverage depth hit, added to an Eagles injury list that already includes their quarterback.

P Edge side lost; final 25-14

Lane Johnson (OT) is out for PHI

Johnson is the Eagles' starting right tackle, and out means he will not play against Carolina. The report does not name the injury or when it happened. A backup takes over at right tackle, and the report does not say who. For a bettor, the swap is the thing to price: watch how Philadelphia protects that side, since a new starter there can change how the Eagles call their passing game.

P Edge side lost; final 25-14

Monroe Freeling (OT) is doubtful for CAR

Freeling has a knee injury, and doubtful means he is very unlikely to play Sunday in Philadelphia. The report came Oct 17, and it does not say when he got hurt or who replaces him. If he sits, Carolina's line takes on the Eagles' pass rush with a backup at tackle, so look at the final inactive list before betting anything that leans on Carolina protecting the quarterback.

P Edge side won; final 25-14

NYJ: 0.6 turnovers a game to NE's 2.2

New England has given the ball away 2.2 times a game over 5 games, while the Jets sit at 0.6. Last season both were cleaner and the order was flipped: New England 0.94, the Jets 1.35. Five games is a short run, and turnover rates swing hard, so the Patriots' number will likely come down and the Jets' will likely rise. For this game, give the Jets' ball security some credit, but do not price New England as a team that will keep coughing it up at this rate.

P Edge side lost; final 19-26

BAL: 164.4 rush yards a game to CLE's 94.2

The widest gap between these two is rush yards a game: BAL ran for 164.4 rushing yards a game over 5 games; CLE ran for 94.2 rushing yards a game over 5 games this season. Last season BAL was at 156.6 over 17 games and CLE at 97 over 17 games.

P Edge side lost; final 10-13

UCLA: 3.6 takeaways per game to WIS's 0.8

UCLA forces 3.6 takeaways a game over 5 games, while Wisconsin forces 0.8. Takeaway rates swing a lot week to week, and 3.6 a game is a pace that rarely holds, so expect it to come down. The edge is real for now, and a high-turnover defense can flip field position and short fields in a close game.

CAR: 301.3 pass yards a game to PHI's 170.6

Carolina is throwing for 301.3 yards a game over four games, while Philadelphia sits at 170.6 over five. Carolina's number is a big jump from 179.3 last season, so four games may be running hot. Philadelphia is also down from 194.3 last season. Expect Carolina's passing number to come back toward its old level some, so be careful paying for this pace in Philadelphia.

P Edge side won; final 25-14

LAR: 307.6 pass yards a game to ARI's 209.6

The widest gap between these two is pass yards a game: ARI threw for 209.6 passing yards a game over 5 games; LAR threw for 307.6 passing yards a game over 5 games this season. Last season ARI was at 232.6 over 17 games and LAR at 268.1 over 17 games.

P Edge side lost; final 18-16

BUF: 158 rush yards a game to LV's 82

Buffalo runs for 158 yards a game to Las Vegas's 82 through 5 games, and this looks real: last season it was 159.6 for Buffalo and 77.5 for Las Vegas. Both teams are carbon copies of their full-season selves, so expect it to hold. Las Vegas cannot match Buffalo's ground game, so the Raiders have to stay close through the air. If Buffalo gets an early lead, its running game can shorten the afternoon.

P Edge side won; final 33-30

AJ Epenesa (DE) is doubtful for PHI

Epenesa (back) is doubtful for Sunday's game against the Panthers. Reported Oct 17.

P Edge side lost; final 25-14

Ben Skowronek (WR) is out for PIT

Skowronek is ruled out Sunday at Tampa Bay with a calf injury, per Mike McCarthy's Monday update. Out means he will not play, and the early call gives Pittsburgh the full week to plan without him. The fact sheet does not say who takes his snaps, so check the final depth chart before betting on any Steelers receiver.

P Edge side won; final 26-19

Benjamin Morrison (CB) is doubtful for TB

Morrison is doubtful for Sunday against Pittsburgh with a quadriceps injury, reported Oct 17. Doubtful means he is unlikely to play, so plan as if Tampa Bay is without him at corner. Confirm when inactives come out before kickoff, since a late change would affect how you view Steelers receiver props.

P Edge side lost; final 26-19

Jeremiyah Love (RB) is out for ARI

Arizona has ruled rookie running back Jeremiyah Love out with an ankle injury for Sunday's game against the Rams. The report does not say who takes his carries, so the Cardinals' backfield is open this week. Wait to see who gets the first-team work before you lean on any Arizona rushing prop.

P Edge side won; final 18-16

Andrew Wingard (S) is out for ARI

Wingard is ruled out for Sunday against the Rams with a knee injury, reported Oct 17. Arizona also lists Budda Baker as questionable with a groin injury, so the safety group could be thin at the same time. If Baker is limited too, the Rams have a softer back end to throw at, which matters most for downfield passing angles.

P Edge side won; final 18-16

Anthony Johnson Jr. (S) is out for CHI

Chicago has ruled out safety Anthony Johnson Jr. for the trip to Atlanta, per the report on Oct 18. The sheet gives no injury type or replacement, so the size of the hole is hard to measure. Out means he will not play. A bettor can check who starts at safety before kickoff and look at how the Falcons attack the deep middle.

P Edge side won; final 31-23

Wydett Williams Jr. (S) is out for ARI

Williams is in concussion protocol, and coach Mike LaFleur has ruled him out for Sunday against the Rams. Out is final, so Arizona plays the game with a reserve at safety. Against a Rams offense, a thinner back end is something to weigh when you look at Los Angeles passing numbers.

P Edge side won; final 18-16

David Montgomery (RB) is out for HOU

Montgomery is out for Sunday's game against the Jaguars in London with a groin injury, a ruling the Texans made on Oct 15. Out means he will not play, so there is no game-time call to wait on. The sheet does not name his backup, so check who Houston lists behind him before backing any Texans rushing number. Treat props built around Montgomery as off the board for this one.

P Edge side won; final 34-31

Breece Hall (RB) is out for NYJ

Breece Hall is out for Sunday's game at New England with a quadriceps injury, reported Oct 16. Out is final: the Jets play without their lead back. The report does not say who gets the carries, so the next Jets back on the depth chart is where the work goes, and bettors should look at that player's rushing lines and at how the Jets plan to move the ball without Hall.

P Edge side lost; final 19-26

Tre' Harris (WR) is out for LAC

Rookie receiver Tre' Harris is out for the Chargers at Kansas City with a hamstring injury. Out means he does not play Sunday, and his targets get spread among the other Chargers receivers. For a bettor, check which receiver picks up his snaps, since that player's props may not yet reflect the bigger role.

P Edge side lost; final 6-22

Evan Svoboda (TE) is out for LAC

Svoboda is a practice squad tight end, so this move does not touch the Chargers' game-day roster at Kansas City. The team put him on the practice squad injured list Wednesday with an undisclosed injury. For betting the LAC @ KC game, this one carries no weight on the tight end usage or the offense.

P Edge side lost; final 6-22

DAL: 49.2% on third down to GB's 27.6%

Dallas converts 49.2% of its third downs over 5 games, Green Bay just 27.6%. Last season Green Bay was at 48.8% and Dallas at 41.1%, so the Packers' drop is the bigger move and the likelier one to bounce back. Five games of third downs is a small pile of plays. At Green Bay, Dallas extending drives is a fair expectation, but Green Bay's offense has a track record that says it should not stay this stuck.

Donte Jackson (CB) is out for LAC

Jackson is out for Sunday at Kansas City with a hamstring injury, reported Oct 17. Derwin James Jr. is also ruled out with a hamstring injury, so the Chargers are missing a corner and their safety in the same game. That leaves a thinner secondary against the Chiefs' passing game, a factor for Kansas City receiving props and the total.

P Edge side lost; final 6-22

Josh Simmons (OT) is out for KC

Simmons is out Sunday against the Chargers with a back injury, reported Oct 17. Out means no decision left to wait on: Kansas City plays this one with another tackle in his spot. The report does not name the replacement, so watch how the Chiefs protect early, since a backup tackle is the spot an opposing pass rush goes after.

P Edge side won; final 6-22

Derwin James Jr. (S) is out for LAC

James is out for Sunday at Kansas City with a hamstring injury, reported Oct 17. Corner Donte Jackson is also out with a hamstring injury, so the Chargers secondary loses two starters in one week. Losing a safety of his profile makes the Chiefs' passing game a more inviting angle, especially for their receivers and tight end.

P Edge side lost; final 6-22

KC: 0.5 turnovers a game to LAC's 2.6

The Chargers have turned it over 2.6 times a game over 5 games; Kansas City has 0.5 over 4. Last season the Chargers were at 1.24, so their giveaways have roughly doubled in a short sample, and that rate is more likely to fall than hold. Kansas City at 0.88 last season has been steady. In this road spot, the Chargers' path depends on protecting the ball, and any game script assuming more short fields for Kansas City relies on a 5-game number.

P Edge side won; final 6-22

SEA @ DEN carries a 31.5 market total

At 31.5, the market expects this to be the lowest-scoring game on the slate by a wide margin, 12.5 points under the 44 median across 14 games. A gap that size means the number is pricing long drives, field goals and few cheap touchdowns from either side. For it to crack, one team has to hand the other short fields or hit a couple of explosive plays early. A bettor can use this as a spot where a single defensive or special teams score swings the whole total.

MIZ: 77.3 rushing yards allowed per game to MISS's 176.4

Missouri allows 77.3 rushing yards a game over 6 games, so most opponents have been held in check on the ground. Ole Miss gives up 176.4 over 5. The sheet doesn't say who either side has played, so schedule could account for some of the gap. On the road, Missouri's run defense is the stronger unit, and the Rebels' front is the one more likely to give ground.

PITT: 51 rushing yards allowed per game to BC's 139.8

Pitt allows 51 rushing yards a game through 6 games, so opponents have found almost nothing on the ground. Boston College gives up 139.8 over 5 games. Six games is a real sample, though the sheet doesn't list who Pitt has played. On the road, a defense that takes away the run can force BC into obvious passing downs, which shapes how drives and totals play out.

VT: 86.5 rushing yards allowed per game to GT's 183

Virginia Tech allows 86.5 rushing yards a game over 6 games, a solid run defense by most standards. Georgia Tech gives up 183 a game over 5, which is a lot. The sheet doesn't say who either team has faced, so part of the 96.5-yard gap could be schedule. For this game, the Hokies look like the side more likely to run the ball successfully at home.

MIA: 42.6 rushing yards allowed per game to FSU's 165.8

Miami gives up 42.6 rushing yards a game through 5 games, which means teams have barely moved the ball on the ground against them. Florida State allows 165.8 over 6 games, so the Hurricanes' offense gets the softer front in this one. The sheet has no opponent list, so we can't say how much schedule helped Miami. When one defense shuts the run down and the other leaks it, the line of scrimmage usually decides who controls the clock.

CAR: 30.3 points per game to PHI's 18.4

Carolina is scoring 30.3 a game over just 4 games, a huge leap from 18.3 last season, while Philadelphia has fallen to 18.4 from 22.3. Four games is a small sample and a jump that large usually cools, especially on the road in Philadelphia. The Eagles' slump looks more like a slow start given last season's number. Weigh this one toward both teams moving back toward last season.

P Edge side won; final 25-14

Joe Alt (OT) is out for LAC

LAC lists Joe Alt as out on the injury report. Reported Oct 16.

P Edge side lost; final 6-22

Rodney Shelley (CB) is doubtful for LAC

Shelley (hamstring) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Chiefs. Reported Oct 17.

P Edge side lost; final 6-22

Josh Jacobs (RB) is out for GB

Jacobs is out for this one because he is on the Commissioner's Exempt List for a personal matter, not an injury. The report says he comes off the list Monday and could play as soon as Week 7 at Detroit. Green Bay faces Dallas without its lead back, so the carries fall to whoever is behind him. Price this game as a Packers offense working without Jacobs, and expect his status to change quickly once the week turns.

Cobie Durant (CB) is out for DAL

Durant is out Sunday at Green Bay with a hamstring injury, reported Oct 17. Dallas also loses tackle Drew Shelton to a hamstring, so the Cowboys are short on both sides of the ball. With a corner missing, the Packers' receivers face a lighter coverage group, which is worth weighing on Green Bay passing numbers.

Drew Shelton (OT) is out for DAL

Shelton is out Sunday at Green Bay with a hamstring injury, reported Oct 17. Dallas also rules out cornerback Cobie Durant with the same injury, so two spots on the depth chart change for this road game. A backup tackle against the Packers' rush is the matchup to watch for anything built on the Cowboys protecting their quarterback.

T.J. Edwards (LB) is out for CHI

Edwards is out for Sunday at Atlanta with a hamstring injury, reported Oct 17. Out means no chance he plays. With Dayo Odeyingbo and Kyler Gordon also ruled out, Chicago's defense is missing a player at every level, which is worth weighing when you look at Falcons yardage props and the game total.

P Edge side won; final 31-23

Kayode Awosika (G) is out for LAC

LAC lists Kayode Awosika as out on the injury report. Reported Oct 16.

P Edge side lost; final 6-22

Tonka Hemingway (DT) is out for LV

Hemingway is out Sunday against the Bills with a concussion, reported Oct 17. Las Vegas plays without him on the interior of the defensive line, and the report does not say who fills in. A thinner defensive front gives Buffalo more room to run, which is the part of this game his absence touches most.

P Edge side lost; final 33-30

C.J. Henderson (CB) is out for ATL

Atlanta has ruled out cornerback C.J. Henderson for Sunday against the Bears because of a groin injury, reported Oct 17. Groin injuries can linger, so this may not be a one-week absence. With Henderson out, Atlanta's secondary loses depth and someone further down the depth chart picks up his coverage snaps. Watch for that matchup when you size up Chicago's passing game.

P Edge side lost; final 31-23

Saquon Barkley (RB) is out for PHI

Barkley is ruled out with a hamstring injury and was not seen at Friday's practice, so Philadelphia faces Carolina at home without its lead back. The fact sheet does not name a replacement, so the workload split behind him is the open question. For bettors, the Eagles' rushing props and any Barkley-based angles are off the board, and the backup backfield is where to look once the depth chart is clearer.

P Edge side lost; final 25-14

Ashton Dulin (WR) is out for IND

Ashton Dulin will miss Sunday's game against the Titans with a hamstring injury, the Indianapolis Star reports. Out means he does not play, so his snaps go to the rest of the Colts' receiver room. For a bettor, look at who moves up the depth chart at receiver and on special teams before treating this as a real loss.

P Edge side lost; final 26-20

Lamar Jackson (QB) is out for BAL

Jackson is the engine of the Baltimore offense, and an ankle injury kept him off the practice field Friday, which is why the Baltimore Sun calls him unlikely for Sunday at Cleveland. The sheet does not name a backup, so the question is how much of the offense Baltimore can run without his legs and arm. Lines on this game should move as his status firms up, and a bettor should wait for the final word before trusting any number.

P Edge side lost; final 10-13

Joseph Ossai (DE) is out for NYJ

Joseph Ossai is out for the Jets' trip to New England with an ankle injury, per the New York Post. Out means no Ossai on Sunday, so the Jets rotate other edge players into his snaps. For a bettor, the question is how much pressure the Jets can get on the Patriots' quarterback with one fewer pass rusher available.

P Edge side lost; final 19-26

Benjamin St-Juste (CB) is out for GB

St-Juste is out Sunday against Dallas with a hamstring injury, reported Oct 17. Green Bay plays the Cowboys a corner short, and the report does not name who steps in. Dallas is missing a corner of its own in Cobie Durant, so both secondaries are thinner than usual, which is a reason to look at passing totals on both sides.

DeMarvion Overshown (LB) is out for DAL

Dallas downgraded Overshown to out with a hamstring injury, which means he will not play Sunday night in Green Bay. A downgrade this late usually means the hamstring did not respond during the week. With Joey Porter Jr. also questionable, the Cowboys could be thinner on defense than usual, so check Sunday's inactives before betting the Packers' side of this game.

Marcus Mariota (QB) is out for WSH

Mariota has a knee injury and will not play Monday night at San Francisco, according to Tashan Reed of The Washington Post. Out means he is done for this game, with no game-time decision to wait on. The fact sheet does not say who starts in his place, so check Washington's quarterback plan before you lean on any passing number in this matchup.

Jacory Croskey-Merritt (RB) is out for WSH

Croskey-Merritt is out for Monday night's game at San Francisco with a groin injury, per Tashan Reed of The Washington Post. Out means he will not suit up. The sheet does not name who takes his carries, so the backfield split is the open question for anyone looking at Washington rushing numbers in this game.

Deebo Samuel Sr. (WR) is out for SF

Samuel has a hamstring injury and is out against Washington. Kyle Shanahan said Thursday the 49ers will hold off on putting him on IR because San Francisco has its bye in Week 8, which means the team expects him back after the break. For this game, the 49ers' targets shift to other receivers, so his absence matters most on San Francisco passing props.

Garret Wallow (LB) is out for SF

Kyle Shanahan said Monday, Oct 12, that Wallow will miss at least a couple of weeks with a hamstring strain, so he is ruled out against Washington. An out tag means he will not play, and the coach's timeline points to more than one missed game. The sheet does not name his role or who replaces him, so check San Francisco's linebacker depth before leaning on any defensive angle in this game.

Charles Omenihu (DE) is out for WSH

Washington lists Omenihu as out for Monday's game at San Francisco. The report gives no injury detail. Out means he will not play, so Washington's pass rush is down a defensive end for this one.

Nick Bosa (DE) is out for SF

SF lists Nick Bosa as out on the injury report. Reported Oct 17.

Javontae Jean-Baptiste (LB) is out for WSH

WSH lists Javontae Jean-Baptiste as out on the injury report. Reported Oct 17.

Marques Sigle (S) is out for SF

SF lists Marques Sigle as out on the injury report. Reported Oct 17.

Caleb Williams (QB) is questionable for CHI

Williams is the Bears' starting quarterback, so his status shapes everything Chicago does on offense. He carries a hamstring issue into the trip to Atlanta, but the questionable tag comes with a report from Adam Schefter that he is expected to start Sunday. A hamstring can limit how much a quarterback moves outside the pocket even when he plays, so watch whether Chicago leans on quicker throws once the game starts.

P Edge side won; final 31-23

Matt Hibner (TE) is out for BAL

Baltimore tight end Matt Hibner is out Sunday in Cleveland with a hand injury, reported Oct 17. Nothing on the sheet says how big his role has been, so his absence mostly changes depth at tight end. The other tight ends on the roster take his snaps. This one should barely move how you view the game.

P Edge side lost; final 10-13

MIA: 333.4 pass yards a game to FSU's 222.3

The widest gap between these two is pass yards a game: FSU threw for 222.3 passing yards a game over 6 games; MIA threw for 333.4 passing yards a game over 5 games this season. Last season FSU was at 253.4 over 12 games and MIA at 253.2 over 16 games.

DUKE: 226.8 rush yards a game to UNC's 112.4

Duke is running for 226.8 yards a game over five games, a big jump from 138.1 last season. North Carolina sits at 112.4, close to its 105.3 from a year ago, so its number looks stable and Duke's is the one that moved. Five games is a small sample for a jump that size. North Carolina has to stay in front so Duke can keep leaning on the ground and shortening the game.

PITT: 299.8 pass yards a game to BC's 172.8

Pitt throws for 299.8 yards a game over six games, while Boston College has fallen to 172.8 over five after 280.2 last season. That drop is the story here: Pitt is close to its 273.3 from a year ago, so its number looks real. Boston College's passing could bounce back toward last season, but five games of 172.8 says something has changed. Pitt's air game is the more trustworthy side of this matchup.

SMU: 346 pass yards a game to UVA's 217.5

SMU is throwing for 346 yards a game over five games, up from 283.1 last season, while Virginia is at 217.5 over six, a little below its 239.1. SMU was already a strong passing team, so some of this should hold even if it cools off. Virginia's way through is to sustain drives and limit how many possessions SMU gets to throw.

HOU: 62.7% on third down to OKST's 33.9%

Houston is converting 62.7% of third downs over six games, a huge leap from 40.3% last season. Oklahoma State is at 33.9% over five, almost identical to its 34.8% a year ago. Houston's rate is very likely to come down, since a jump that size over six games rarely lasts. Oklahoma State's number looks like who it is, so its drives stalling is the steadier read in this spot.

UTAH: 238.2 rush yards a game to COLO's 140.4

Utah runs for 238.2 yards a game over five games, down a bit from 266.3 last season but still a ground-first offense. Colorado is at 140.4 over five, near its 125.6 from a year ago. Both numbers line up with last season, so this gap looks real. Colorado has to stop the run on early downs at home, or Utah can control the clock and keep the game on its terms.

UCLA: 253.2 rush yards a game to WIS's 152.8

The widest gap between these two is rush yards a game: WIS ran for 152.8 rushing yards a game over 5 games; UCLA ran for 253.2 rushing yards a game over 5 games this season. Last season WIS was at 116.7 over 12 games and UCLA at 139.6 over 12 games.

ORST: 370.5 pass yards a game to WSU's 158.7

Oregon State is throwing for 370.5 yards a game over six games, after 225.8 last season. Washington State has gone the other way, down to 158.7 from 210.5. Oregon State's leap is big enough that some pullback is likely, though six games is more than a fluke. Washington State's best path is shortening the game with long drives, since trading pass for pass favors the home side.

UK: 179.8 rush yards a game to OU's 95.8

Kentucky runs for 179.8 yards a game over six games, up from 139.2 last season, while Oklahoma has dropped to 95.8 over five from 118.5. Oklahoma's ground game was already modest and has slipped further. Kentucky's run game has the edge on the road, and Oklahoma likely has to lean on its passing to keep pace.

PITT: 34.8 points per game to BC's 19

Pitt is scoring 34.8 points a game over six games, right around its 33.7 last season, while Boston College has dropped to 19 over five from 25.4. Pitt's output looks steady. BC's fall matches its passing game shrinking this year, which leaves less margin to trade scores. Pitt is the more reliable offense here, and BC needs a bounce back toward last season's level to keep this close at home.

CIN @ WVU carries a 63.5 market total

At 63.5, the market expects this game to run 13 points past the typical game on a 29-game slate, which means both offenses are expected to score on a lot of possessions. The facts here give only the number, with no team stats behind it. For this to crack, drives would have to stall and end in punts or field goals instead of touchdowns. A total this far above the median leaves little room for a slow first half.

OKST @ HOU carries a 62.5 market total

A 62.5 total sits 12 points above the 50.5 slate median, so the market sees a high-possession game with both sides finishing drives. No team numbers come with it. The number cracks if the game turns into a field-goal trade or one offense goes cold early. Watch the early pace: a scoreless first quarter puts real pressure on a total built this high.

CAR: 6.13 yards per play to PHI's 4.58

Carolina is at 6.13 yards a play over 4 games, up from 4.92 last season, with Bryce Young, Tetairoa McMillan and Chuba Hubbard all producing 20-plus plays last game. Philadelphia sits at 4.58, down from 5.27, with just 1 play of 20-plus last game, a 62-yard score to Darius Cooper. Four games is thin for Carolina's surge. The Eagles' offense has more room to bounce back than the Panthers have to keep climbing.

P Edge side won; final 25-14

OU: 22.7% third downs allowed to UK's 45.9%

Oklahoma lets opponents convert just 22.7% of third downs over 5 games, an elite number that ends drives early. Kentucky allows 45.9% over 6, so offenses keep moving against them. Third-down rates bounce around, and 22.7% is hard to sustain. Even with some pullback, Kentucky's offense faces a tough time sustaining drives in Norman.

NU: 203 rush yards a game to MSU's 121.7

Northwestern runs for 203 yards a game over five games, up from 160.2 last season. Michigan State is at 121.7 over six, nearly identical to its 122.8 a year ago. Michigan State's number looks like who it is, while Northwestern's jump could cool somewhat. Michigan State has to slow the run at home, or Northwestern can grind out possessions.

OSU: 337.8 team passing yards per game to IU's 241.3

OSU is at 337.8 team passing yards per game over 6 games; IU is at 241.3 over 6 games. Those are this season's games through Oct 16. Last season OSU was at 268.2 over 14 games and IU at 239.1 over 16 games.

MIA: 9.8 points allowed per game to FSU's 25.3

FSU is at 25.3 points allowed per game over 6 games; MIA is at 9.8 over 5 games. Those are this season's games through Oct 16. Last season FSU was at 22 over 12 games and MIA at 14.8 over 16 games.

FRES: 20 points allowed per game to SDSU's 35

San Diego State is allowing 35 points a game this season after giving up just 15.4 last season, a collapse across six games. Fresno State at 20 is close to its 18.8 from a year ago, so the gap comes from San Diego State's side. A swing that large over six games may soften, but it is too big to dismiss as noise. Fresno State's offense walks into a defense that has not stopped anyone yet.

SF: 51.9% on third down to WSH's 31.9%

San Francisco keeps drives alive, converting 51.9% of third downs over five games, while Washington is at 31.9%. San Francisco was at 49.8% last season, so this is their normal. Washington is down from 37.6%, and some bounce back is likely, though the gap should stay wide. Expect San Francisco to hold the ball longer and Washington to punt more, which shapes possession count and pace.

KC: 1.5 sacks taken per game to LAC's 3.4

LAC is at 3.4 sacks taken per game over 5 games; KC is at 1.5 over 4 games. Those are this season's games through Oct 16. Last season LAC was at 3.75 over 17 games and KC at 2.94 over 17 games.

P Edge side won; final 6-22

WVU: 295.5 rushing yards per game to CIN's 221.8

Both teams run the ball heavily, and West Virginia is doing it at 295.5 yards a game over six games, almost double its 160.6 from last season. Cincinnati is also up, from 176.1 to 221.8 over five games. When two run-first offenses meet, the clock moves and possessions shrink. That leaves the game to whichever defense gets more stops on early downs, with West Virginia holding the home field.

ND: 66.7% fourth-down conversion rate to BYU's 0%

Notre Dame converts two of three fourth-down tries this season, while BYU has gone 0% across five games. BYU was at 58.1% last season, so a zero almost certainly reflects only a handful of attempts and should rise. Notre Dame is up from 54.8%. At home, BYU's fourth-down results are the number most likely to move, so don't assume they will keep coming up empty.

BAL: 8.1 yards per pass attempt to CLE's 5.52

Baltimore is averaging 8.1 yards per throw over 5 games, up from 6.69 last season, and Cleveland is at 5.52, which is better than last season's 4.78 but still low. Baltimore's jump should cool some over a full season. Cleveland's passing game has been weak two years running, so the Ravens are more likely to dictate the game through the air.

P Edge side lost; final 10-13

OSU: 337.8 pass yards a game to IU's 241.3

Ohio State throws for 337.8 yards a game over six games, up from 268.2 last season. Indiana is at 241.3, almost exactly its 239.1 from a year ago, so its passing looks steady. Ohio State's jump is large but it came from a strong base, so a high number should mostly hold. Indiana needs to keep Ohio State's offense off the field with its own sustained drives.

SF: 18.6 points allowed per game to WSH's 29.8

WSH is at 29.8 points allowed per game over 5 games; SF is at 18.6 over 5 games. Those are this season's games through Oct 16. Last season WSH was at 26.5 over 17 games and SF at 21.8 over 17 games.

NEB: 213.8 rush yards a game to ORE's 137.2

Nebraska runs for 213.8 yards a game over six games, up from 145.9 last season. Oregon has dropped to 137.2 over five after 198.6 a year ago. Both moved sharply, so expect some drift back toward last season on each side. Oregon's rushing could rebound at home, which makes this gap look less settled than the headline suggests.

LOU: 231.7 rushing yards per game to SYR's 158.2

Louisville is running for 231.7 yards a game over six games, a big rise from 163.9 last season. Syracuse is up too, from 123.2 to 158.2 over five games, but sits well behind. Six games is enough to say Louisville has committed to the run. At Syracuse, expect Louisville to try to grind and shorten the game.

LAR: 4.82 yards per play allowed to ARI's 6.24

The Rams allow 4.82 yards per play over 5 games, and Arizona allows 6.24, a clear split in how often each defense gets beat. Without opponent quality on the sheet, the schedule's role can't be judged. For this matchup the Rams offense should find more room than Arizona's does.

P Edge side lost; final 18-16

KSU: 62% third-down conversion rate to KU's 40.6%

KU is at 40.6% third-down conversion rate over 5 games; KSU is at 62% over 5 games. Those are this season's games through Oct 16. Last season KU was at 38.5% over 12 games and KSU at 37.2% over 12 games.

Alvin Kamara (RB) is questionable for NO

Kamara (back) practiced on a limited basis Friday is listed as questionable for Sunday's game at the Giants, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports. Reported Oct 16.

P Edge side won; final 34-27

CAR: 23.5 first downs per game to PHI's 14.4

CAR is at 23.5 first downs per game over 4 games; PHI is at 14.4 over 5 games. Those are this season's games through Oct 16. Last season CAR was at 18 over 17 games and PHI at 18 over 17 games.

P Edge side won; final 25-14

Rico Dowdle (RB) is questionable for PIT

Dowdle is listed questionable with a toe injury, but he was a full participant Thursday and Friday. Full practices late in the week usually point to a player who suits up, so the tag here looks more like caution than a real doubt for Pittsburgh at Tampa Bay. Weigh his outlook as close to normal unless something changes before kickoff.

P Edge side won; final 26-19

Trevor Etienne (RB) is questionable for CAR

The Panthers activated Etienne (ankle) from injured reserve Saturday. Reported Oct 17.

P Edge side won; final 25-14

GB: 2.8 sacks recorded per game to DAL's 1

Green Bay gets home 2.8 times a game over 5 games, and Dallas sits at 1. A pass rush at that level keeps quarterbacks off schedule, while Dallas lets passers sit in the pocket. Sacks can depend on the line faced, but over 5 games this gap points to more pressure on the Dallas quarterback than on Green Bay's.

Brenen Thompson (WR) is questionable for LAC

Thompson (quadriceps) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Chiefs. Reported Oct 17.

P Edge side lost; final 6-22

DJ Moore (WR) is questionable for BUF

Moore is dealing with a shoulder injury and will carry a questionable tag into Sunday at Las Vegas, per The Buffalo News. Questionable means he could go either way. If he plays, a sore shoulder can limit his snaps, and if he sits, other Buffalo receivers see more targets, so check the inactive list before betting his props.

P Edge side won; final 33-30

KeAndre Lambert-Smith (WR) is questionable for LAC

Lambert-Smith (hamstring) is questionable for Sunday's game against Kansas City. Reported Oct 17.

P Edge side lost; final 6-22

Chris Olave (WR) is questionable for NO

Olave is questionable with an illness after a limited Friday practice before the trip to face the Giants. An illness tends to clear faster than a soft-tissue injury, so this leans toward him playing. Check the final status before game day, since a late scratch would shift targets to the rest of the Saints receivers.

P Edge side won; final 34-27

Mike Evans (WR) is questionable for SF

Evans (ribs) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against Washington, Vic Tafur of The Athletic reports. Reported Oct 17.

WAKE: 94.8 rushing yards allowed per game to CAL's 174.7

Wake Forest allows 94.8 rushing yards a game over 6 games, a decent mark. Cal gives up 174.7 over the same 6-game span. The sheet doesn't list opponents, so it's unclear how much schedule shaped either number. Wake's ground game has the easier matchup here, which matters for a road team trying to control tempo.

TreVeyon Henderson (RB) is questionable for NE

Henderson said Friday that an MRI revealed he sustained a high-ankle sprain but that he is "hoping to play" Sunday against the Jets, Doug Kyed of the Boston Herald reports. Reported Oct 16.

P Edge side won; final 19-26

Omar Cooper Jr. (WR) is questionable for NYJ

Cooper (ankle) was activated from injured reserve Saturday. Reported Oct 17.

P Edge side lost; final 19-26

Quinshon Judkins (RB) is questionable for CLE

Judkins (foot) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Baltimore, Zac Jackson of The Athletic reports. Reported Oct 16.

P Edge side won; final 10-13

Tyjae Spears (RB) is questionable for TEN

Spears has a knee issue and is questionable for Sunday at Indianapolis. Questionable means it could go either way, and the report includes no practice details to lean on. Bettors interested in the Titans backfield should wait for the inactive list before trusting any Spears number.

P Edge side won; final 26-20

Joshua Palmer (WR) is questionable for BUF

Palmer is questionable with a shoulder injury for Sunday's trip to Las Vegas, and DJ Moore is listed as questionable with a shoulder issue too. That puts two Buffalo receivers in doubt for the same game. If one or both sit, targets get squeezed into fewer hands, so receiving props for whoever is confirmed active are the spot to revisit closer to kickoff.

P Edge side won; final 33-30

A.J. Brown (WR) is questionable for NE

The Patriots activated Brown (ankle) from injured reserve Saturday, but he's still listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Jets. Reported Oct 17.

P Edge side won; final 19-26

Stefon Diggs (WR) is questionable for WSH

Diggs (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against San Francisco. Reported Oct 17.

Ja'Kobi Lane (WR) is questionable for BAL

Lane (wrist) was activated from injured reserve by Baltimore on Saturday. Reported Oct 17.

P Edge side lost; final 10-13

FRES: 20 points allowed a game to SDSU's 35

San Diego State is allowing 35 points a game over six games, a collapse from 15.4 last season. Fresno State allows 20, close to its 18.8 a year ago, so its defense looks steady. Six games of 35 is more than a bad week, though last season shows San Diego State's defense can be much better. Fresno State's offense is in a good spot to score on the road.

Sean Tucker (RB) is questionable for TB

Tucker is a Tampa Bay running back dealing with a quadriceps injury, listed as questionable and called a game-time decision for Sunday against Pittsburgh. Questionable means his status is uncertain, and game-time means the call may not come until shortly before kickoff. The report does not say who takes his carries if he sits. Bettors interested in his props or Tampa's backfield should hold off until inactives are posted.

P Edge side lost; final 26-19

BAL: 73.7% red-zone scoring rate to CLE's 45.5%

BAL is at 73.7% red-zone scoring rate over 5 games; CLE is at 45.5% over 5 games. Those are this season's games through Oct 16. Last season BAL was at 47.5% over 17 games and CLE at 52.6% over 17 games.

P Edge side lost; final 10-13

NU: 35.4 points per game to MSU's 21.3

Northwestern is scoring 35.4 points a game over five games, a big jump from 23.4 last season. Michigan State has dropped from 24.6 to 21.3 over six. A 12-point leap in five games deserves some skepticism until it holds against better defenses. On the road, Northwestern's offense is the side carrying the momentum, while Michigan State has not found much scoring.

WVU: 295.5 rush yards a game to CIN's 221.8

West Virginia runs for 295.5 yards a game over six games, almost double its 160.6 last season. Cincinnati is strong too at 221.8 over five, up from 176.1. Both are run-heavy, which usually means a fast clock and fewer possessions. West Virginia's number is likely to come down some, but this sets up as a ground fight at home.

SF: 6.54 yards per play to WSH's 5.14

San Francisco is at 6.54 yards a play over 5 games, up from 5.49 last season, with Brock Purdy finding Mike Evans for three of their chunk plays last game. Washington sits at 5.14, near last season's 5.53, and its big plays come on the ground: Jayden Daniels and Jacory Croskey-Merritt had touchdown runs of 38, 33 and 26 yards last game. The style clash is Purdy to Evans against a Washington run game that can hit quick home runs.

BAL: 29.2 points per game to CLE's 18.6

BAL is at 29.2 points per game over 5 games; CLE is at 18.6 over 5 games. Those are this season's games through Oct 16. Last season BAL was at 24.9 over 17 games and CLE at 16.4 over 17 games.

P Edge side lost; final 10-13

KSU: 62% on third down to KU's 40.6%

Kansas State is converting 62% of third downs over five games, after 37.2% last season. Kansas is at 40.6%, near its 38.5% from a year ago. Kansas State's jump is the kind that rarely lasts, so expect it to settle lower. Kansas has to get off the field on third down, since extending drives is where Kansas State has been winning.

NYJ: 0 interceptions thrown per game to NE's 1.4

The Jets have thrown 0 interceptions in 5 games after 0.76 a game last season, while New England is at 1.4, triple last season's 0.47. Zero picks over 5 games rarely lasts, and the Patriots' rate should come down toward last season too. This turnover edge is more likely to narrow than hold.

P Edge side lost; final 19-26

LOU: 231.7 rush yards a game to SYR's 158.2

Louisville runs for 231.7 yards a game over six games, up from 163.9 last season. Syracuse is at 158.2 over five, also up from 123.2. Both ground games improved, but Louisville's lead is wide. Syracuse has to hold up against the run at home, or Louisville can control the pace and possessions.

ORST: 47.9% third-down conversion rate to WSU's 26.9%

Oregon State is converting nearly half its third downs over six games, up from 35.9% last season. Washington State has fallen from 38.1% to 26.9%. Both moves are large, so some drift toward last season's numbers is likely. At home, Oregon State is the team sustaining drives, and Washington State needs to fix third down to keep pace.

NE: 9.6 sack yards lost per game to NYJ's 26.8

The Jets are losing 26.8 yards a game to sacks over 5 games, about where they were last season at 24.9, so this is a lasting trait. New England is at 9.6, better than last season's 12.6. Jets drives are likely to stall on negative plays, which favors the Patriots in field position.

UGA: 74.5 rushing yards allowed per game to AUB's 148.2

Georgia allows 74.5 rushing yards a game over 6 games, which keeps offenses from leaning on the run. Auburn gives up 148.2 a game over 5. The sheet doesn't show who either team has faced, so some of the gap may be schedule. For this game, Auburn's offense likely has to win through the air, and Georgia's backs face the softer front.

HOU: 73.5 rushing yards allowed per game to OKST's 149

Houston allows 73.5 rushing yards a game over 6 games, so teams haven't run well on them. Oklahoma State gives up 149 a game over 5. Without opponent info on the sheet, the strength of schedule behind both numbers is an open question. At home, Houston's run defense is the steadier unit, and the Cowboys may have to throw to move the ball.

ORST is 2-1 at home; WSU is 0-3 on the road

Oregon State has won two of three in its own building, while Washington State has yet to win away from home in three tries. Three games per side is a thin sample, so neither split says much about who these teams are. It does point the same way here: the home team has found wins at home and the visitor has not on the road. If you lean on site splits, this is a spot where both sides of the split agree, but three games each is all the evidence there is.

BUF @ LV carries a 53.5 market total

At 53.5, this is the highest total on the slate, 9.5 points above the 44 median across 14 games. The market expects both offenses to finish drives and trade touchdowns rather than settle for kicks. For that to fall apart, drives have to stall in the red zone or the clock has to run long on sustained possessions. A bettor can watch the first few drives: field goals in place of touchdowns are the earliest sign the number was set too high.

DEN is 3-0 at home; SEA is 1-2 on the road

Denver has won all 3 of its home games, while Seattle is 1-2 away from home. That is 3 games each, so the split is real but thin, and the sheet says nothing about who either team beat. Home records this early move a lot with one result. Use it as a reason to lean toward the Denver side of the matchup, then check how good those 3 home opponents actually were before you trust it.

DUKE: 0.4 turnovers committed per game to UNC's 1.6

Duke has turned it over less than once every two games across five games, while North Carolina gives it away 1.6 times a game. Duke was at 1 last season, so 0.4 is an outlier likely to rise; North Carolina was at 1.25. At home, Duke's ball security has kept games clean, but expect that number to drift up rather than hold.

No. 2 Notre Dame at No. 8 BYU

Voters have Notre Dame close to the top: 1630 points and a first-place vote, against 1237 for BYU, so the gap here is wide even with both sides unbeaten. Notre Dame climbed a spot this week at 6-0, and BYU held steady at 5-0. A No. 2 team on the road has the most to lose, because one loss can cost it a lot of ground. BYU gets the home crowd and a chance to show its 5-0 start belongs in the top tier, which makes this a spot where the lower-ranked host tends to get some respect.

ALA: 269.2 team passing yards per game to TENN's 186.5

Alabama is throwing for 269.2 yards a game over six games, almost the same as its 263.5 last season. Tennessee has dropped hard, from 292.8 to 186.5, so the gap is Tennessee's passing game falling off. Six games is a fair sample for a drop that big. At home, Tennessee needs its passing game back to keep up with a steady Alabama attack.

TEX: 168.4 passing yards allowed per game to FLA's 268.7

Texas allows 168.4 passing yards a game over 5 games, so opponents haven't thrown well against them. Florida gives up 268.7 over 6. The sheet doesn't list opponents, so we can't tell how much passing volume they faced. At home, Texas's pass defense is the stronger unit, and the Gators' secondary is the one more likely to give up big plays.

CAR: 1.75 takeaways per game to PHI's 0.6

Carolina forces 1.75 turnovers a game over 4 games, while Philadelphia sits at 0.6 over 5. Four games is a small sample for a stat that swings this much, so the Panthers' rate is likely to come down. Philadelphia's defense has rarely handed its offense extra possessions.

P Edge side won; final 25-14

SF: 50% red-zone scoring allowed to WSH's 83.3%

WSH is at 83.3% red-zone scoring allowed over 5 games; SF is at 50% over 5 games. Those are what each defense has allowed in this season's games through Oct 16.

ATL: 69.2% red-zone scoring rate to CHI's 42.9%

Atlanta scores on 69.2% of red-zone trips over 5 games, up from 62% last season, while Chicago has fallen to 42.9% from 58.2%. Chicago's drop is the likelier one to correct, and the Bears' fourth-down aggression gives them extra chances near the goal line. Chicago drives may end in more field goals or empty trips than Atlanta's until that rate climbs.

P Edge side lost; final 31-23

KU: 3 fourth-down attempts per game to KSU's 0.4

Kansas is going for it on fourth down three times a game across five games, while Kansas State barely tries at all. Kansas was at 2.33 last season, so the aggression fits; Kansas State was at 2.67, so 0.4 is a big shift that may reflect game situations as much as philosophy. On the road, Kansas will likely keep gambling, which adds variance to how this game plays out.

TEX: 16 points allowed per game to FLA's 29

Texas is allowing 16 points a game over five games, down from 20.3 last season. Florida has gone the other way, from 24 to 29 over six. The trend runs in Texas's favor on both sides of this matchup. At home, the Texas defense is the side setting the tone, and Florida's defense has not shown it can hold down scoring.

SEA: 28% third downs allowed to DEN's 44.4%

Seattle lets opponents convert just 28% of third downs over 6 games, and Denver allows 44.4%. Six games is a fair sample, and getting off the field that often keeps drives short. Expect Seattle to cut more Denver drives off, while Denver's defense has let offenses keep the chains moving.

P Edge side lost; final 14-17

IND: 31:07 time of possession per game to TEN's 24:31

Indianapolis holds the ball 31:07 a game over 5 games, up a bit from 29:37 last season, while Tennessee is at 24:31, a big drop from 29:08. The Colts set the clock here, and Tennessee's offense is getting fewer chances. Expect a slower game with fewer Titans possessions.

PSU: 0.67 turnovers a game to MICH's 1.8

Penn State gives the ball away less than once a game, while Michigan coughs it up almost twice a game through five games. Last season Michigan sat at 1.31, so this year's rate is higher than its usual self and could settle back some. Penn State was at 0.77 last season, so its ball security looks real. In a road game, Penn State winning the giveaway battle is the most likely way it controls field position and steals extra possessions.

ALA: 269.2 pass yards a game to TENN's 186.5

The widest gap between these two is pass yards a game: ALA threw for 269.2 passing yards a game over 6 games; TENN threw for 186.5 passing yards a game over 6 games this season. Last season ALA was at 263.5 over 15 games and TENN at 292.8 over 13 games.

Oklahoma State is coughing it up 1.8 times a game over 5 games, up from 1.42 last season, while Houston has cut its rate to 0.67 from 1.08. Both moves are in small samples, so expect each to drift toward last season's number. Houston at home has the cleaner profile, and if the Cowboys keep giving it away, Houston gets extra possessions and short fields.

LAR: 156.8 passing yards allowed per game to ARI's 236.8

The Rams give up 156.8 passing yards a game over 5 games, and Arizona allows 236.8. That is a stingy pass defense against a leaky one, though the sheet can't say how good the quarterbacks each faced were. Arizona's passing game projects to have a tougher day than the Rams' does.

P Edge side lost; final 18-16

PITT @ BC carries a 41.5 market total

At 41.5, this is priced 9 points under the 50.5 median, so the market expects long drives, punts and few touchdowns. Nothing on the sheet explains why. For the under expectation to crack, one or two quick-strike scores or a defensive touchdown would do it, since a low total has little cushion. In games priced this low, a single turnover in short field position moves the math a lot.

FRES: 224 team passing yards per game to SDSU's 143.2

Fresno State throws for far more than San Diego State, and it is up from 183.4 last season while SDSU slipped from 157.7. SDSU leans on other ways to move the ball, so this is a clash of a Fresno passing game against an Aztecs team that keeps games shorter on the ground. If SDSU controls tempo at home, Fresno gets fewer chances to cash that passing edge, which shapes how you think about the total.

UTAH: 55% third-down conversion rate to COLO's 35.6%

UTAH is at 55% third-down conversion rate over 5 games; COLO is at 35.6% over 5 games. Those are this season's games through Oct 16. Last season UTAH was at 52.9% over 13 games and COLO at 38.4% over 12 games.

UNC: 27.4 penalty yards per game to DUKE's 75.2

UNC is giving away very little in penalty yardage through 5 games, while Duke is handing over a lot. Last season the two were dead even, 62.6 for UNC and 62.7 for Duke, so both teams have moved a long way in a short sample and some drift back toward that middle is likely. For this game, Duke's flags matter more at home: drive-extending penalties against Duke's defense could keep UNC on the field longer than its offense would earn on its own.

Oklahoma allows 146.4 passing yards a game over 5 games, so quarterbacks haven't done much against them. Kentucky gives up 243.8 over 6. The sheet doesn't show opponents, so some of OU's number could reflect who they've faced. Paired with a pass defense this tight, Kentucky's offense faces a hard road trip if it has to throw to keep up.

Texas allows 16 points a game over five games, while Florida gives up 29 over six. Both moved in opposite directions from last season, with Texas improving from 20.3 and Florida slipping from 24. Six games is enough that Florida's leaky defense looks like a real problem. On the road at Texas, Florida probably has to win a high-scoring game, which is a hard ask against a defense this stingy.

WAKE is 3-0 on the road; CAL is 2-2 at home

Wake Forest has won all three road games, and Cal has split four at home. That is a road team that has handled travel and a home team that has been a coin flip on its own field. Three road games is a small sample, so the perfect mark is more likely to slip than hold. For this game, the usual home edge looks smaller than normal on the evidence so far.

IND: 31:07 of possession a game to TEN's 24:31

Indianapolis has held the ball 31:07 a game over 5 games while Tennessee sits at 24:31. Last season the two were close, 29:37 for the Colts and 29:08 for the Titans, so Tennessee's dip is the outlier. Possession time follows game script, and through 5 games Tennessee has been on the field defending a lot. At Indianapolis, expect the Colts to control the clock unless the Titans can sustain drives like last season.

Rays are 5-1 vs Guardians this season

Tampa Bay has taken five of six from Cleveland this year, and the most recent meeting was a 1-0 game that one swing could have flipped. Nothing here says who pitched or where those games were played, so the record doesn't explain itself. Six games is a small set, and a one-run finish says these teams play close. Use the series edge as background and price tonight off the starters and lineups actually taking the field.

MICH: 94.6 rushing yards allowed per game to PSU's 165.8

Michigan allows 94.6 rushing yards a game over 5 games, a solid run defense. Penn State gives up 165.8 over 6. The sheet doesn't say who either side has played, so schedule may explain part of the gap. In a game like this, the team that runs it better usually controls the clock, and Michigan looks better positioned on that front.

NEB: 0.5 turnovers committed per game to ORE's 1.6

Nebraska is protecting the ball at 0.5 giveaways a game, better than its 0.85 last season, while Oregon sits at 1.6 over 5 games after just 1 a game last season. Both are short samples, and Oregon's jump is the likelier one to correct. In Eugene, Nebraska's path to staying close is avoiding the short fields that let Oregon pile up points.

DUKE: 84 rushing yards allowed per game to UNC's 152

Duke allows 84 rushing yards a game over 5 games, a good run defense. UNC gives up 152 over the same 5 games. The sheet doesn't list opponents, so schedule could shape part of the gap. In a rivalry game, the side that can run reliably often controls the pace, and Duke's front looks like the tougher one to move.

UTAH: 13 points allowed per game to COLO's 25.4

UTAH is at 13 points allowed per game over 5 games; COLO is at 25.4 over 5 games. Those are this season's games through Oct 16. Last season UTAH was at 18.9 over 13 games and COLO at 30.5 over 12 games.

SYR: 55.6% fourth-down conversion rate to LOU's 0%

Louisville has not converted a fourth down in 6 games this season, a hard swing from 64.3% last season, which says sample and maybe fewer, tougher attempts more than a broken offense. Syracuse is at 55.6%, up from 46.9%. Expect Louisville's number to climb back toward normal, so a late fourth-and-short in this game should not be priced off a zero.

ORST: 26 first downs per game to WSU's 16.8

WSU is at 16.8 first downs per game over 6 games; ORST is at 26 over 6 games. Those are this season's games through Oct 16. Last season WSU was at 19.5 over 13 games and ORST at 20.4 over 12 games.

SYR: 163.2 passing yards allowed per game to LOU's 257.2

Syracuse allows 163.2 passing yards a game over 5 games, a strong mark through the air. Louisville gives up 257.2 over 6. Without opponent details on the sheet, it's hard to say how much schedule helped Syracuse. At home, the Orange's pass defense is the better unit, and the Cardinals' secondary is the one more likely to get hit.

LAC has lost 5 straight

The Chargers are 0-5, and they walk into Kansas City still looking for their first win. A streak like this often leads to a coaching staff taking more chances, which can open up a game late. Five games is enough to say the team is struggling, but it does not tell you how close the losses were. In a road spot at Arrowhead, the question is how much of that 0-5 is already baked into the line.

No. 4 Ohio State at No. 5 Indiana

These two are nearly even in the eyes of voters: Ohio State has 1508 points and Indiana has 1461, and Indiana is the one holding a first-place vote. Indiana is 6-0 and rose two spots, while Ohio State is 5-1 and moved up one. The 4 and 5 rankings undersell how close this looks, and Indiana is at home. Bettors should price this as a coin-flip kind of matchup rather than lean on the brand name.

DAL @ GB carries a 52.5 market total

At 52.5, the market has this 8.5 points above the 44 slate median, which prices in a game where both teams score often. That expectation leans on touchdowns coming steadily through four quarters. It cracks if one side builds a lead and leans on the run to shorten the game. A bettor can think about how the script shapes up: a close game keeps both offenses throwing, while a lopsided one tends to drain the scoring late.

TEN has lost 5 straight

Tennessee is 0-5 and has not won a game yet this season. Five straight losses usually push a team into a more aggressive, chase-the-game approach, which can swing totals and late scoring more than the final result. Winless teams do win eventually, and the sheet does not tell us how close these losses were. On the road at Indianapolis, think about whether the price on Tennessee already reflects the 0-5 start.

KC: 4.75 red-zone trips per game to LAC's 2.6

LAC is at 2.6 red-zone trips per game over 5 games; KC is at 4.75 over 4 games. Those are this season's games through Oct 16. Last season LAC was at 3.35 over 17 games and KC at 3.47 over 17 games.

P Edge side won; final 6-22

SF has won 5 straight

San Francisco is 5-0 and has not lost yet. A team on a run like this tends to play with a lead and lean on its run game and defense late, which can keep games lower scoring than the talent suggests. The sheet does not list who they beat, so the strength of the run is unclear. At home against Washington, the market will price them as the clear favorite, so the value question is the margin more than the result.

KC has 7 more days of rest

Kansas City is coming off a bye with 13 days, while the Chargers have 6 on a normal week. The Chiefs get extra days to heal and game plan, and they play at home on top of it. The Chargers handle a standard week, so this is a bonus for Kansas City more than a handicap for them. Factor the bye in as a small edge for the home side, not something that outweighs the matchup itself.

CAR has 7 more days of rest

Carolina gets a full week more than Philadelphia here, 13 days with a bye against 6. That buys time to rest sore players, install new wrinkles and scout this opponent, while the Eagles are on a normal week. Rest gaps tend to show up most early in games, when the fresher team's opening script has had extra days of work. Weigh the bye as one input on Carolina's side, alongside what you already think of each roster.

MIA has 6 more days of rest

Miami has had two full weeks since its last game, while Florida State comes in on 8 days, so the Hurricanes had extra time to heal and build a plan for this one. FSU's turnaround is close to a normal week, so the edge is about Miami's extra prep more than FSU being rushed. A bye helps most with injuries and scheme wrinkles, so look at Miami's early drives for anything new.

BC has 7 more days of rest

Boston College had a bye and gets 14 days to prepare at home, while Pitt is on a standard 7-day week. That gives BC a second week of practice to rest bodies and install things Pitt has not seen on film. Extra rest is one factor among many, so weigh it with the matchup rather than letting it carry the whole case.

SMU has 7 more days of rest

SMU comes off a bye with 14 days of rest and hosts a Virginia team on a normal 7-day week. The Mustangs get the fresher legs and an extra week to study the Cavaliers. The rest edge tends to show early, when a prepared team runs its new looks, so the first quarter is where it matters most.

TTU has 7 more days of rest

Texas Tech had the bye and gets 14 days before hosting Arizona State, who is on a regular 7-day week. The Red Raiders had extra time to rest and tailor a plan, while ASU prepares on the usual schedule. A rested home team is a common spot bettors lean toward, so the question is how much of that is already in the number.

CIN has 7 more days of rest

Cincinnati comes off a bye with 14 days of rest and travels to West Virginia, who is on a standard 7-day week. The extra week helps offset the road trip, since the Bearcats had time to heal and game plan. A rested road team blunts some of the usual home edge, which is a useful lens for this matchup.

COLO has 7 more days of rest

Colorado had a bye and gets 14 days before hosting Utah, who comes in on a normal 7-day week. The Buffaloes had an extra week to get healthy and add wrinkles Utah has not had time to prepare for. Rest plus home field stacks in Colorado's favor on the calendar, so weigh that against how the two teams match up on the field.

RUTG has 7 more days of rest

Rutgers comes off a bye with 14 days of rest and heads to Maryland, who is on a regular 7-day week. The Scarlet Knights had the extra practice week, which helps make up for being on the road. In a rivalry-style spot like this, extra prep can matter in a close game late, when fresher legs show up.

MICH has 7 more days of rest

Michigan had the bye and gets 14 days to prepare at home for Penn State, who is on a standard 7-day week. In a big game, a second week to rest and build a specific plan is a real edge for the Wolverines. Penn State's week is normal, so this is about Michigan's extra prep rather than PSU being worn down.

WIS has 7 more days of rest

Wisconsin comes off a bye with 14 days of rest and travels to UCLA, who is on a normal 7-day week. The extra week matters more on a long cross-country trip, since the Badgers had time to recover and adjust before flying out. Rest and travel offset each other here, so neither side gets a clean calendar edge.

AUB has 7 more days of rest

Auburn had a bye and gets 14 days before visiting Georgia, who is on a standard 7-day week. The Tigers had an extra week to rest and build a plan for a tough road game. Extra prep helps most with scheme surprises early, so watch whether Auburn shows Georgia something new in the opening drives.

MSST has 7 more days of rest

Mississippi State comes off a bye with 14 days of rest and goes to LSU, who is on a regular 7-day week. The Bulldogs had the extra week to heal and prepare for a hostile road setting. The rest edge goes to the road team here, which takes a little off the usual home advantage.

NYG: 21.2 points allowed per game to NO's 30.2

New Orleans is allowing 30.2 points a game over 5 games, way up from 22.5 last season, while the Giants have tightened to 21.2 from 25.8. Five games can inflate a points allowed number, and the Saints' rate is likely to drift down. The Giants should still have a good chance to score at home against this defense.

P Edge side lost; final 34-27

NYG: 21.2 points allowed a game to NO's 30.2

New Orleans has allowed 30.2 points a game over 5 games, up from 22.5 last season. The Giants have gone the other way, from 25.8 last season to 21.2. Both moves came in 5 games, so some of each should drift back toward last season. At New York, the Saints' defense is the weaker side, and the Giants' offense should find chances to score.

Za'Darius Smith (DE) is questionable for ATL

Smith (neck) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bears, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports. Reported Oct 17.

Kyler Gordon (CB) is questionable for CHI

The Bears activated Gordon (calf) from reserve/PUP on Saturday. Reported Oct 17.

P Edge side won; final 31-23

Dee Alford (CB) is questionable for BUF

Alford is questionable for Sunday at Las Vegas with an ankle injury, reported Oct 17. Questionable means a real chance he plays and a real chance he does not, so the call usually comes with the inactive list. Buffalo also lists Ed Oliver as questionable, so check both before game time.

P Edge side won; final 33-30

Brandon Cisse (CB) is questionable for GB

Cisse (hip) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Cowboys, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports. Reported Oct 17.

Jacob Monk (C) is questionable for GB

Monk (quadriceps) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Cowboys. Reported Oct 17.

Joey Porter Jr. (CB) is questionable for DAL

Porter (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Packers, Patrik Walker of the Cowboys' official site reports. Reported Oct 17.

Trent McDuffie (CB) is questionable for LAR

Rams cornerback Trent McDuffie is questionable for Sunday against Arizona with a groin injury, reported Oct 17. Questionable means he could play either way, and groin injuries can limit a corner who does play. He is a top cover man, so if he sits or is slowed, the Cardinals' receivers face a weaker secondary. Check his status before game time, and do the same for safety Kam Curl, who is also questionable.

P Edge side lost; final 18-16

Jamel Dean (CB) is questionable for PIT

Dean (ankle) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's game against the Buccaneers, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports. Reported Oct 17.

P Edge side lost; final 25-14

LSU: 172.5 passing yards allowed per game to MSST's 260

LSU allows 172.5 passing yards a game over 6 games, so opponents haven't thrown well against them. Mississippi State gives up 260 over 5. The sheet doesn't show who either team has faced, so schedule is an open question. At home, LSU's secondary is the steadier unit, and the Bulldogs' pass defense is the one more likely to give up yards.

PSU @ MICH carries a 42.5 market total

A 42.5 total, 8 points below the 50.5 slate median, says the market expects defense and a grinding pace to win out. No player or unit stats are supplied. The expectation cracks if either offense hits explosive plays early and forces the other to open up. Low totals like this tend to hinge on whether red-zone trips end in sevens or threes.

UK: 34.7 points per game to OU's 23

Kentucky is scoring 34.7 a game over 6 games, a big jump from 23 last season, while Oklahoma is at 23, down from 26.2. Kentucky's leap is large enough that some regression is likely, especially on the road. Expect Oklahoma at home to test whether that offense is real, and lean toward last season's levels when sizing up the total.

TTU: 16.2 points allowed per game to ASU's 27.8

Texas Tech allows 16.2 points a game over 5 games, close to last season's 11.8, so its defense has stayed stingy. Arizona State gives up 27.8, a bit worse than 24.5 last season. With Texas Tech's defense at home, ASU's offense faces the tougher matchup, and a lower-scoring script favors the Red Raiders.

IU: 222.2 rushing yards per game to OSU's 163.8

Indiana runs for more than Ohio State, and this is no fluke: Indiana was at 212.9 last season and Ohio State at 154.4, so both are close to who they were. This game pits Indiana's ground-first identity at home against an Ohio State team that runs less. If Indiana can keep running, it shortens the game and limits Ohio State's possessions, which matters when thinking about the total and the underdog margin.

VT: 310.2 team passing yards per game to GT's 238.6

Virginia Tech has turned into a passing team, nearly doubling last season's 166.3 per game, while Georgia Tech dropped from 262.5. Six games is enough to show a real change in Virginia Tech's approach, though some regression is possible. This game puts the Hokies' new air attack at home against a Georgia Tech passing game that has cooled off, so the edge in the air has flipped from last season.

DEN: 1 turnover committed per game to SEA's 2

Seattle is giving it away 2 times a game over 6 games, up from 1.65 last season, while Denver sits at 1, exactly where it was last season. Denver's number is who they are. Seattle's rate could ease some, but on the road in Denver, ball security is the Seahawks' issue to fix.

P Edge side won; final 14-17

CHI: 26% third downs allowed to ATL's 40.3%

Chicago holds opponents to 26% on third down over 5 games, while Atlanta allows 40.3%. That gap means Chicago gets off the field far more often. Third-down rates drift with the schedule, which the sheet doesn't cover, but Atlanta's offense faces the tougher money down in this game.

P Edge side won; final 31-23

SEA: 225 team passing yards per game to DEN's 168

Seattle is at 225 passing yards a game over 6 games, nearly identical to last season's 228.1. Denver has fallen to 168 from 223.9, so the drop is on the Broncos' side. Seattle's passing game looks stable, and Denver's offense may lean on other ways to move the ball.

P Edge side lost; final 14-17

LV: 2 takeaways per game to BUF's 1

Las Vegas forces 2 takeaways a game over 5 games, and Buffalo forces 1. Turnover rates are hard to hold, so expect the Raiders' number to come down some. For this game the Raiders' defense is the likelier one to create a swing possession.

P Edge side lost; final 33-30

TTU: 16.2 points allowed a game to ASU's 27.8

Texas Tech allows 16.2 points a game and Arizona State allows 27.8, both over five games. Texas Tech gave up just 11.8 last season, so this level fits who it has been. Arizona State is worse than last year's 24.5. On the road in Lubbock, Arizona State likely faces a defense that keeps scoring down, so its own defense has to hold up for it to stay in the game.

CAR: 7.08 yards per pass attempt to PHI's 5.02

CAR is at 7.08 yards per pass attempt over 4 games; PHI is at 5.02 over 5 games. Those are this season's games through Oct 16. Last season CAR was at 5.47 over 17 games and PHI at 6.33 over 17 games.

P Edge side won; final 25-14

VT: 310.2 pass yards a game to GT's 238.6

Virginia Tech throws for 310.2 yards a game, and that is a huge jump from 166.3 last season. Georgia Tech is at 238.6 over five games, down a bit from 262.5. A swing that big for Virginia Tech suggests a new passing attack, and six games is a fair sample, though it will face tougher tests. At home, Virginia Tech's air game is the edge Georgia Tech has to slow down with pressure or by keeping its own offense on the field.

DEN: 1 turnovers a game to SEA's 2

Seattle is giving the ball away twice a game over six games, Denver once. Denver was at 1 a game last season too, so that is steady. Seattle is up from 1.65 last season, so some of this may settle down, though turnovers on the road in Denver can swing a close game. Seattle's ball security is the thing to watch when thinking about this spot.

P Edge side won; final 14-17

No. 6 Alabama at No. 14 Tennessee

Alabama has almost double Tennessee's poll support, 1372 points to 706, even though both teams are 5-1. Alabama held at No. 6 and Tennessee moved up one spot to No. 14, so some of that gap comes from reputation more than record. Tennessee is at home with the same record, which makes the eight-spot ranking gap look bigger than the results so far justify.

MIZ @ MISS carries a 58.5 market total

At 58.5, this sits 8 points over the 50.5 median, so the market expects plenty of scoring and few empty possessions. The sheet offers only the number. It cracks if drives bog down or the clock keeps running on long, slow possessions. A bettor can watch whether early drives finish in touchdowns, since a total this high needs them.

SEA: 3.9 yards per play allowed to DEN's 5.05

Seattle allows 3.9 yards per play over 6 games, and Denver allows 5.05. Holding offenses under four yards a snap for six weeks is a strong defense, and the sample is large enough to trust more than most. Points and drives should be harder to come by for Denver's offense in this one.

P Edge side lost; final 14-17

CHI @ ATL carries a 51.5 market total

At 51.5, the market expects this to be the shootout of the slate, 7.5 points above the 44 median across 14 games. That number says books see both offenses moving the ball and few long, empty drives. For it to crack, one defense has to win early downs and force punts, or drives have to stall in the red zone and end in field goals. A bettor can use it to ask whether the game script truly needs both teams scoring, since one quiet offense sinks a total this high.

WIS: 75% fourth-down conversion rate to UCLA's 25%

Wisconsin has converted three of every four fourth-down tries through 5 games, while UCLA has made good on only one in four. Both numbers come from a handful of attempts, and last season sat closer together at 66.7% and 48.4% over 12 games, so expect both to drift toward those marks. For this game, UCLA's short-yardage offense is the bigger worry, and a bettor can lean on Wisconsin to keep drives alive in tight spots more often than not.

OKST: 322.4 team passing yards per game to HOU's 251.7

Oklahoma State has nearly doubled its passing output to 322.4 from 174.1 last season, and Houston is up too at 251.7 from 216.4. Five games is a small sample for a jump that big, so expect some cooling. Both teams throwing more points to a higher-scoring game, but Houston at home is a test of whether the Cowboys' new style holds.

PSU: 251.2 team passing yards per game to MICH's 180.8

Penn State has opened up its passing game to 251.2 a game, up from 187.6 last season, while Michigan is near its usual level at 180.8 versus 186.8. Over 6 games, Penn State's jump looks like a real style change. In Ann Arbor, the Nittany Lions throwing more could force Michigan to keep pace, which affects how you think about the total.

BAL (4-1) at CLE (3-2), a division game

Baltimore is 3-0 on the road with a +27 point differential and three straight wins. Cleveland's 3-2 record sits on a -19 differential, so the Browns have won more than their scoring suggests, though they are 2-0 at home. A team winning while being outscored tends to regress. This sets up as a road favorite with momentum against a home team whose record flatters it.

P Edge side won; final 10-13

Henry To'oTo'o (LB) is questionable for HOU

Houston brought linebacker Henry To'oTo'o back from injured reserve on Saturday after a shoulder injury, and he is listed questionable at Jacksonville. Getting activated is a strong sign the team expects him to be ready, though questionable still leaves real doubt about whether he plays and how many snaps he gets. Bettors can wait for the inactive list and watch whether his return firms up the Texans' run defense.

P Edge side won; final 34-31

HOU (1-4) at JAX (4-1), a division game

Jacksonville has won three in a row and is 3-0 at home, so it comes into this one with real form behind it. Houston's 1-4 record looks worse than its -2 point differential, which says the Texans have lost close games rather than been run over. That kind of gap usually narrows over time. For a division game, weigh Houston as a tighter opponent than the record suggests, against a Jaguars team that has protected its building.

P Edge side lost; final 34-31

DUKE: 33:40 time of possession per game to UNC's 26:38

UNC is at 26:38 time of possession per game over 5 games; DUKE is at 33:40 over 5 games. Those are this season's games through Oct 16. Last season UNC was at 28:25 over 12 games and DUKE at 29:42 over 14 games.

TCU +5.5 → +3.5

Gary's number was 5.5; the same book now shows 3.5.

TEN (0-5) at IND (2-3), a division game

Tennessee is 0-5 with a -51 point differential, so the losing streak reflects how lopsided the games have been. Indianapolis at 2-3 and -14 is a modest team, 1-1 at home. Both point differentials back up the records, so neither looks out of place. The useful frame is one struggling team at home against a winless one that has been beaten soundly, in a division game where familiarity can tighten things.

P Edge side lost; final 26-20

TEX -11.5 → -13.5

Gary's number was -11.5; the same book now shows -13.5.

UGA: 0.83 turnovers a game to AUB's 1.8

Auburn is turning it over 1.8 times a game over five games, while Georgia sits at 0.83. Auburn was at just 0.67 last season, so this spike may cool off as the year goes on. Georgia's 0.93 last year says its ball security is steady. At Georgia, Auburn can't afford to hand over extra possessions, and cleaning up its giveaways is the first thing it needs to stay close.

LAC (0-5) at KC (4-0), a division game

Kansas City is 4-0 and 2-0 at home with a +41 differential, while the Chargers are 0-5 at -45 and 0-2 on the road. Every split on the sheet points the same way. A five-game losing streak backed by a negative differential is a team playing poorly, not unlucky. Division familiarity is the main thing that can keep a spot this lopsided closer than the numbers say.

P Edge side won; final 6-22

Mason Graham (DT) is questionable for CLE

Graham (knee/ankle) is questionable for Sunday's game against Baltimore. Reported Oct 17.

P Edge side won; final 10-13

NU: 1.6 takeaways per game to MSU's 0.5

Northwestern forces 1.6 takeaways a game over 5 games, Michigan State 0.5 over 6. Takeaways swing a lot week to week, so both numbers can move fast. The gap is small in game terms, about one extra turnover, but in a tight road game that can decide field position.

FLA: 197.8 rushing yards per game to TEX's 141.4

Florida is running for 197.8 a game, way up from 136.8 last season, while Texas is basically where it was at 141.4 versus 137.8. Florida's surge over 6 games could cool against a better defense, and Texas at home is a stiffer test. If Florida can keep the ground game going, it controls tempo, but expect the gap to shrink.

JAX: 14 points allowed a game to HOU's 22.4

Jacksonville has allowed 14 points a game over 5 games, down from 19.8 last season, while Houston has slipped from 17.4 to 22.4. Five games is enough to notice and short enough to doubt, so expect both to move a bit toward last season's numbers. At home, the Jaguars' defense is the stronger unit, and Houston's offense needs to show it can score against it.

P Edge side lost; final 34-31

JAX: 14 points allowed per game to HOU's 22.4

Jacksonville is giving up two touchdowns a game through five games, while Houston has slipped to 22.4 after allowing 17.4 last season. The Jaguars allowed 19.8 last season, so their jump is the bigger surprise and the one more likely to drift back. Houston's defense has gone the other way, and five games is enough to take seriously but not to call either unit settled. If Jacksonville dictates a low-scoring game at home, Houston has to win it with offense against a defense that has been stingier than its history.

P Edge side lost; final 34-31

ARI (1-4) at LAR (2-3), a division game

Arizona has dropped four straight and sits at -54, so its 1-4 is earned. The Rams at 2-3 are basically even at -1, which points to a team close to average with a few bad breaks. LA is only 1-2 at home, so home field has not added much. The point differential gap is the clearer signal here than either team's record or venue split.

P Edge side lost; final 18-16

LAR: 24 points allowed per game to ARI's 32.4

ARI is at 32.4 points allowed per game over 5 games; LAR is at 24 over 5 games. Those are this season's games through Oct 16. Last season ARI was at 28.7 over 17 games and LAR at 20.4 over 17 games.

P Edge side lost; final 18-16

ARI @ LAR carries a 51.5 market total

At 51.5, the market puts this division game 7.5 points above the 44 slate median, which means it expects both offenses to move the ball and finish. The expectation needs a steady pace with few long, clock-eating stalls. It cracks if either defense forces punts early and the game turns into a field position fight. A bettor can weigh how fast the first quarter plays out, since a slow start makes a number this high harder to reach.

WSH @ SF carries a 51.5 market total

At 51.5, this game sits 7.5 points over the 44 median across 14 games, so the market expects a high-scoring afternoon with both sides putting up points. For that to hold, drives need to end in touchdowns more than field goals. It cracks if one offense stalls and the other gets a lead it can protect on the ground. A bettor can think about whether both teams have to contribute, since a total this high rarely gets there off one offense alone.

HOU: 3.6 sacks recorded per game to JAX's 2.2

Houston averages 3.6 sacks a game over 5 games, and Jacksonville averages 2.2. Both teams get home, but Houston's rush is the heavier one. The Jacksonville quarterback should expect more pressure in this game than Houston's will.

P Edge side won; final 34-31

SF: 0.6 sacks taken per game to WSH's 2

WSH is at 2 sacks taken per game over 5 games; SF is at 0.6 over 5 games. Those are this season's games through Oct 16. Last season WSH was at 2.31 over 17 games and SF at 1.8 over 17 games.

Josiah Trotter (LB) is questionable for TB

Trotter (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Steelers. Reported Oct 17.

P Edge side lost; final 26-19

Budda Baker (S) is questionable for ARI

Baker is questionable for Sunday against the Rams with a groin injury, reported Oct 17. Arizona has already ruled out safety Andrew Wingard, so if Baker sits too the back end loses two safeties at once. That is the scenario to watch for Rams passing numbers, and the answer comes with the inactive list.

P Edge side won; final 18-16

Savion Williams (WR) is questionable for GB

GB lists Savion Williams as questionable on the injury report. Reported Oct 18.

Zaven Collins (LB) is questionable for ARI

Collins is questionable for Sunday against the Rams with a hip injury, reported Oct 17. Questionable leaves it open, so wait for the inactive list. Arizona is already without Andrew Wingard and has Budda Baker questionable, so the defense could be short in several spots at once.

P Edge side won; final 18-16

Kam Curl (S) is questionable for LAR

Curl (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Stu Jackson of the Rams' official site reports. Reported Oct 17.

P Edge side lost; final 18-16

Daiyan Henley (LB) is questionable for LAC

Henley (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Chiefs. Reported Oct 17.

P Edge side lost; final 6-22

Ed Oliver (DT) is questionable for BUF

Oliver is questionable for Sunday at Las Vegas with a knee injury, reported Oct 17. Questionable means it could go either way, and the decision usually lands near kickoff. If he sits, Buffalo's interior line is thinner against the Raiders' run game, so check his status before betting Las Vegas rushing numbers.

P Edge side won; final 33-30

UGA: 0.83 turnovers committed per game to AUB's 1.8

Auburn is giving it away 1.8 times a game over 5 games after just 0.67 last season, while Georgia is steady at 0.83 versus 0.93. Auburn's spike looks more like a short-sample swing than who it is. At Georgia, though, a careless offense gets punished, so Auburn's ball security is the key to staying in the game.

MIZ: 17.7 points allowed a game to MISS's 28

Missouri allows 17.7 points a game, close to last season's 18.9, so its defense looks like the real thing. Ole Miss gives up 28 over five games, a clear jump from 21.1 last season. Ole Miss may tighten up some, but five games of this is a real warning sign. At home, Ole Miss probably has to outscore Missouri rather than shut it down.

KC: 9.5 sack yards lost per game to LAC's 22.8

LAC is at 22.8 sack yards lost per game over 5 games; KC is at 9.5 over 4 games. Those are this season's games through Oct 16. Last season LAC was at 21.6 over 17 games and KC at 19.3 over 17 games.

P Edge side won; final 6-22

RUTG: 26.6 penalty yards per game to MD's 67.7

Rutgers is one of the cleanest teams around at 26.6 penalty yards per game over 5 games, while Maryland is giving away 67.7 over 6. This fits each program's habits: Rutgers was at 32.6 last season and Maryland at 54.6, so Maryland has gotten sloppier and Rutgers stayed disciplined. In a road game, Rutgers is the side less likely to hand over free yards, and Maryland drives can stall or extend on flags.

DUKE: 34 points per game to UNC's 23.4

UNC is at 23.4 points per game over 5 games; DUKE is at 34 over 5 games. Those are this season's games through Oct 16. Last season UNC was at 19.3 over 12 games and DUKE at 34.6 over 14 games.

SEA: 141.3 passing yards allowed per game to DEN's 208.5

Seattle allows 141.3 passing yards a game over 6 games, and Denver allows 208.5. Six games is a solid sample for a pass defense this tight. Denver's passing game is up against one of the stingier groups on this slate.

P Edge side lost; final 14-17

FRES: 219.2 passing yards allowed per game to SDSU's 299.2

Fresno State gives up about 80 fewer passing yards a game than San Diego State, so the Bulldogs make throwing harder over six games. No opponent detail or last-season number is on the sheet, so we can't say how much of that comes from schedule. Six games is a fair sample, though. If Fresno's passing attack moves the ball against an SDSU secondary allowing 299.2 a game, think about Fresno passing props and their team total.

MIA: 0.4 turnovers committed per game to FSU's 1.33

FSU is at 1.33 turnovers committed per game over 6 games; MIA is at 0.4 over 5 games. Those are this season's games through Oct 16. Last season FSU was at 1.58 over 12 games and MIA at 0.94 over 16 games.

DEN: 1.33 sacks taken per game to SEA's 2.67

Seattle's quarterback is going down 2.67 times a game across six games, up from 2.08 last season, while Denver has kept its passer cleaner than it did a year ago. That gap tilts toward Denver's pass rush, at home, against a line already leaking. Six games is a fair sample and Seattle's number has climbed, so it may ease some, but this spot points to Seattle drives stalling on obvious passing downs.

P Edge side won; final 14-17

NO: 2.4 fourth-down attempts per game to NYG's 0.8

New Orleans goes for it on fourth down about two and a half times a game, while the Giants barely try at all at 0.8. Last season the Giants were at 2.29, so this five-game pullback is a real change in approach, while the Saints have nudged up from 2. In a game at the Meadowlands, expect the Saints to extend drives in plus territory and the Giants to punt or kick, which shapes how many short field goals and empty trips you see.

P Edge side won; final 34-27

BAL: 5.02 yards per rush attempt to CLE's 3.68

BAL is at 5.02 yards per rush attempt over 5 games; CLE is at 3.68 over 5 games. Those are this season's games through Oct 16. Last season BAL was at 5.28 over 17 games and CLE at 3.9 over 17 games.

P Edge side lost; final 10-13

ARI has lost 4 straight

ARI carries a 4-game losing streak into this one, sitting at 1-4 on the season. They face LAR in ARI @ LAR. Current-2026 standings through 2026-10-16.

WAKE: 144 rush yards a game to CAL's 92.8

Wake Forest runs for 144 yards a game, while Cal manages 92.8, both over six games. These line up with last season, Wake at 156.2 and Cal at 81.7, so the gap looks stable. Cal has struggled to run for two years now. Wake's ground game on the road gives it a way to control the clock, while Cal has to win through the air.

TEX: 30.9% third downs allowed to FLA's 46.7%

Texas lets opponents convert 30.9% of third downs over five games, and Florida allows 46.7% over six. That means Texas gets off the field and Florida keeps drives alive for opponents. We don't know who either team faced, so this could shrink against better offenses. Florida's offense likely faces longer drives that stall, while Texas should get extra plays, which tilts toward Texas controlling the clock.

BC: 161.2 passing yards allowed per game to PITT's 240

Boston College allows 161.2 passing yards a game over five games, and Pitt allows 240 over six. The sheet doesn't say who either team played, so BC's number could be partly schedule. If BC's pass defense holds up, Pitt has to win on the ground, and Pitt's own soft pass defense could let BC's offense keep up. Look at Pitt passing unders before overs.

No. 13 Missouri at No. 9 Ole Miss

Ole Miss sits four spots higher with 1135 points to Missouri's 882, and it is the home team. Missouri is 5-1 and climbing after a one-spot jump, while Ole Miss is 4-1 and held in place. The records are close enough that this ranking gap is modest, and Missouri has a chance to flip the order with a road win.

PITT: 24.3 first downs per game to BC's 16.4

Pitt is moving the chains at 24.3 first downs per game over 6 games, while Boston College sits at 16.4 over 5. Last season both were at 20.8, so Pitt has climbed and BC has dropped off a cliff. Five or six games can tilt on schedule, but a gap this wide points to Pitt controlling possession and keeping the BC offense off the field, which matters for how long this game drags and who sets the tempo.

ORE: 312.2 team passing yards per game to NEB's 247.5

Oregon is throwing for 312.2 yards per game over 5 games, up from 253.6 last season, while Nebraska is at 247.5 over 6, a modest rise from 224.6. Both passing games have improved, Oregon by much more. At home, Oregon's air attack is the style likely to set the pace, which pushes Nebraska to answer through the air rather than grind.

Yandy Diaz: .450 OPS in Last 15 Days

Diaz has a .450 OPS over the last 15 days, 0.355 below his .805 season mark, which is a real cold spell for a hitter of his level. It covers only 40 AB, and a few hard-hit balls finding gloves can drag a number that far in a window that short. Expect him to drift back toward his season form. Fading him on props tonight means betting on a 40 AB slump over a full season of evidence.

Pittsburgh is throwing for 223.4 yards a game over 5 games, up from 202.4 last season, while Tampa Bay has fallen to 173.4 from 205.9. Tampa Bay's drop is the sharper change, and a 5-game slump is more likely to recover than last. At Tampa Bay, Pittsburgh has the passing edge, but a Buccaneers air game closer to last season would shrink it fast.

MIZ: 0.5 turnovers committed per game to MISS's 1.4

Missouri is protecting the ball at 0.5 turnovers per game over 6 games, while Ole Miss is coughing it up 1.4 times over 5. Both flipped from last season, when Missouri was at 1.31 and Ole Miss at 0.93, and turnover rates swing hard over a few games. Expect both to move back toward the middle, so price this game more on how each offense moves the ball than on giveaways holding.

Last season over 17 games he threw for 3942 yards, completed 58.1% and averaged 6.94 yards per attempt, 27-7 touchdowns to interceptions. This season's 2-1 touchdown-to-interception line is 2 games in. Caleb Williams is also listed q for this matchup.

FLA: 41.7 points per game to TEX's 31.4

Florida is scoring 41.7 points per game over 6 games, nearly double its 21.6 from last season, while Texas is at 31.4 over 5, right in line with last season's 30.5. Texas looks like the same offense; Florida's jump is the one to question, since six games can be padded by soft opponents. A trip to Texas is a real test of whether that scoring is new identity or early schedule.

VT: 37.7 points per game to GT's 27.2

Virginia Tech is putting up 37.7 points per game over 6 games, up from 21.4 last season, while Georgia Tech has slipped to 27.2 over 5 from 32.2. That is a big swing in both directions on a short sample, and some of it should settle back. At home, Virginia Tech's offense gets to prove the jump is real against a Georgia Tech side that scored more last season than it has so far.

MIZ: 17.7 points allowed per game to MISS's 28

Missouri is allowing 17.7 points per game over 6 games, close to last season's 18.9, while Ole Miss is giving up 28 over 5, well above its 21.1 last season. Missouri's defense looks like a steady identity; Ole Miss's slide is newer and could tighten as the sample grows. On the road, Missouri brings the defense more likely to dictate a lower-scoring game.

OU: 17.6 points allowed per game to UK's 28

UK is at 28 points allowed per game over 6 games; OU is at 17.6 over 5 games. Those are this season's games through Oct 16. Last season UK was at 26.4 over 12 games and OU at 15.5 over 13 games.

WIS @ UCLA carries a 43.5 market total

A 43.5 total, 7 points under the 50.5 median, says the market expects a slow, low-scoring game. No team stats come with it. For it to crack, the game would need short fields from turnovers or a couple of long scoring plays. Totals this low leave little margin, so one fluky score shifts the picture.

UK @ OU carries a 43.5 market total

At 43.5, 7 points below the slate median of 50.5, the market sees a tight, defense-led game with limited touchdowns. The sheet gives nothing beyond the price. The expectation cracks if either offense strings together quick scores or turnovers hand out short fields. Early red-zone results tell you a lot in a game priced this low.

Ethan Grunkemeyer is VT's projected starter

Ethan Grunkemeyer is VT's projected starting quarterback. The October 14 game preview discusses Grunkemeyer as Virginia Tech's quarterback for this matchup. No explicit game-specific starter announcement was retrieved. 2026 line: 1734 passing yards, 73.1% completions, 8.34 yards per attempt, 12-2 TD-INT over 6 games.

TCU: 155.4 passing yards allowed per game to BAY's 229.2

TCU is at 155.4 passing yards allowed per game over 5 games; BAY is at 229.2 over 5 games. Those are what each defense has allowed in this season's games through Oct 16.

Rocco Becht is PSU's projected starter

Rocco Becht is PSU's projected starting quarterback. Jon Sauber's October 15 Michigan preview discusses Becht continuing at quarterback and considers a change unlikely. This establishes a projection rather than an explicit game-specific starter announcement. 2026 line: 1397 passing yards, 62.7% completions, 8.42 yards per attempt, 11-3 TD-INT over 6 games.

Kevin Jennings is SMU's projected starter

Kevin Jennings is SMU's projected starting quarterback. October 16 matchup preview identifies Jennings as back under center; SMU's October 13 preview discusses him as its incumbent starter. No explicit game-day starting announcement retrieved. 2026 line: 1613 passing yards, 75.0% completions, 10.34 yards per attempt, 14-5 TD-INT over 5 games.

Isaac Wilson is COLO's confirmed starting quarterback. Deion Sanders said Wilson will start against Utah on October 17, as reported October 13. 2026 line: 445 passing yards, 56.3% completions, 6.27 yards per attempt, 2-3 TD-INT over 3 games.

Devon Dampier is UTAH's confirmed starter

Devon Dampier is UTAH's confirmed starting quarterback. ESPN700's October 14 interview about this week's Colorado matchup identifies Dampier as Utah's QB1; Utah's October 12 game preview also identifies him as the offense's quarterback. 2026 line: 1134 passing yards, 71.8% completions, 8.66 yards per attempt, 12-2 TD-INT over 5 games.

Arch Manning is TEX's projected starter

Malik Washington is MD's projected starter

Malik Washington is MD's projected starting quarterback. Maryland's October 12 game preview and October 16 attributed reporting discuss Washington as the team's quarterback entering Rutgers week. These retrieved reports do not contain an explicit game-specific starter announcement; projection is based on that reporting, not passing totals. 2026 line: 1352 passing yards, 61.3% completions, 6.09 yards per attempt, 7-6 TD-INT over 6 games.

WAKE: 36.8 points per game to CAL's 26.7

Wake Forest is scoring 36.8 points per game over 6 games, up from 28.1 last season, while Cal is at 26.7, close to its 25.3. Cal's number looks stable; Wake's jump is the one more likely to cool over a full season. Pair it with Wake's ground game and the road team has the offense more likely to control this matchup.

Michael Hawkins Jr. is WVU's projected starter

Michael Hawkins Jr. is WVU's projected starting quarterback. WVU's October 14 preview discusses Hawkins as the quarterback leading its offense against Cincinnati. This supports an expected starter, without an explicit game-specific starting announcement. 2026 line: 1033 passing yards, 52.3% completions, 9.31 yards per attempt, 7-1 TD-INT over 6 games.

Lincoln Kienholz is LOU's projected starter

Lincoln Kienholz is LOU's projected starting quarterback. The October 13 Louisville matchup preview explicitly identifies Kienholz as Louisville's starter throughout the season. This supports his projection for Syracuse without a separate game-day confirmation. 2026 line: 1534 passing yards, 69.5% completions, 9.96 yards per attempt, 9-1 TD-INT over 6 games.

Malachi Nelson is SYR's projected starter

Malachi Nelson is SYR's projected starting quarterback. October 16 reporting expects Nelson to start against Louisville despite a collarbone injury and a downgrade from probable to questionable; participation remains conditional on his health. 2026 line: 217 passing yards, 55.2% completions, 7.48 yards per attempt, 1-0 TD-INT over 1 games.

CJ Carr is ND's confirmed starter

CJ Carr is ND's confirmed starting quarterback. October 12 reporting reproduces Notre Dame's released BYU-week depth chart with Carr first at quarterback. 2026 line: 1378 passing yards, 70.8% completions, 9.57 yards per attempt, 16-1 TD-INT over 6 games.

Bear Bachmeier is BYU's projected starter

Bear Bachmeier is BYU's projected starting quarterback. October 14 Notre Dame game preview identifies Bachmeier as BYU's offensive leader at quarterback; no explicit game-day starting announcement was retrieved. 2026 line: 1033 passing yards, 66.4% completions, 8.91 yards per attempt, 8-1 TD-INT over 5 games.

Drew Mestemaker is OKST's projected starter

Drew Mestemaker is OKST's projected starting quarterback. The October 16 matchup preview identifies Mestemaker as Morris's quarterback and discusses his upcoming matchup with Weigman. It does not explicitly announce a confirmed starter. 2026 line: 1575 passing yards, 67.5% completions, 9.32 yards per attempt, 13-5 TD-INT over 5 games.

Conner Weigman is HOU's projected starter

Conner Weigman is HOU's projected starting quarterback. The October 16 game preview discusses Weigman as Houston's quarterback for Saturday's matchup and quotes him about facing Mestemaker. It does not explicitly announce a confirmed starter. 2026 line: 1427 passing yards, 66.7% completions, 8.65 yards per attempt, 15-1 TD-INT over 6 games.

Colton Joseph is WIS's projected starter
