The Diagonal Guru offers us his best bets for the MNF between the Broncos and the Bills.
MIAMI — Matchday ten, once again, will have an intriguing Monday Night Football duel.
The Buffalo Bills are not showing their best version, given that their offense is having too many gaps, while the defense is suffering from injuries.
And one of the most attractive aspects of this particular duel is that the Denver Broncos defense has shown a better face in recent weeks, so it will be a more than interesting matchup.
Without further ado, let’s go with our three favorite bets for this match:
1) JAVONTE WILLIAMS OVER 49.5 YARDS RUSHING

Early in the season, it was evident that last year’s injury was still affecting Javonte Williams. However, in recent days we are seeing again the explosiveness to which he accustomed us in his beginnings in the NFL.
Williams is an extremely physical runner, and has led the way in rushing yards in recent weeks; In fact, they were the three days with the most rushing yards for him. To that we must add the fact that the Bills defense, after the injuries of Matt Milan y DaQuan Jones, is more vulnerable on land. To the point that only two teams in the entire NFL have allowed more yards per carry than the Bills (4.9) so far this season.
Denver is going to try to counteract Buffalo’s pressure, and there will be volume of carries for Williams. I love the over.
2) KHALIL SHAKIR OVER 2.5 RECEPTIONS

The talent of the Bills’ receiving corps beyond Stefon Diggs.
The reality is that Gabriel Davis has had some flashes of talent, but he is too inconsistent, and cannot be trusted. And for a couple of seasons Buffalo has been looking for a good receiver to operate as an interior player, as he did at the time. Cole Beasley o Isaiah McKenzie.
Inside the equation is now Khalil Shakir, who has been Buffalo’s second-best wide receiver the last two weeks. While it is true that Shakir has only 18 receptions this season, 14 of them were in the last two days, and he has been a good safety valve for Josh Allenwhen you decide to be less vertical and take fewer risks.
3) MORE THAN 1.5 LOSSES BETWEEN BOTH TEAMS

As I told you, the Broncos defense, which was humiliated at the beginning of the season, has raised its head and has allowed just 45 points in the last three games, despite the fact that two of those games were against the Kansas City Chiefs; In those games, the Broncos have forced seven losses.
To that we must add that Josh Allen leads the NFL with nine interceptions, while Russell Wilson He has committed five fumbles, of which he lost three.
In other words, I’d be surprised if there aren’t at least two losses in this matchup.
