Matchup Advantage
Buffalo has struggled against the run this season, allowing the 7th most yards per carry to opposing RBs. They’ve been gashed in recent games, including a dominant performance by Christian McCaffrey last week before his injury. The Bills have shown they’re susceptible to big games from running backs, and Williams is in a position to capitalize.

Game Script and Play Action
Sean McVay has consistently leaned on the run to set up the play-action pass, a strength of Matthew Stafford’s game. Stafford has attempted the second-most play-action passes in the league this year, and establishing the run with Williams will be key to that strategy.
My Opinion: Williams has the matchup and volume to clear 76.5 rushing yards comfortably. This line feels low given Buffalo’s recent struggles against the run.
