Overview

  • Kickoff is 8:20 p.m. ET at Highmark Stadium for a Week 1 meeting that revisits January’s divisional game the Bills won 27-25.
  • Oddsmakers list Baltimore around -1 with totals near 50.5, and simulations such as Dimers peg the Ravens’ win probability near 58% as many experts lean slightly their way.
  • Buffalo could be without key cornerbacks Christian Benford and Tre’Davious White, a concern frequently cited in previews that spotlight opportunities for Lamar Jackson and his top targets.
  • A focal point for Baltimore is defensive takeaway production after dropping from 31 in 2023 to 17 in 2024 and forcing none in the playoff loss, with this opener beginning a demanding six-week stretch.
  • The matchup features consecutive MVPs Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson, with several betting analysts highlighting the Over and noting Buffalo’s 8-0 home mark last season.
