How I Used Rithmm for Ravens vs Bills Predictions

Rithmm combines AI-driven data and customizable models to provide betting insights. For this game, I examined:

Team Trends: Both teams leaned toward the over late in the season (e.g., 13-5 O/U for Baltimore).
Player Trends: Zay Flowers’ potential absence impacts Baltimore’s offense, shifting the predictive edge to Buffalo.
Advanced Stats: Ravens dominate on the ground, while Buffalo thrives in the air.

What the Model Says

With Flowers in, Rithmm’s AI model had Baltimore winning by 1.2 points. Factoring in his absence shifts the edge to Buffalo, predicting the Bills to cover at +1.

My Pick for Ravens vs Bills

Given the trends and model adjustments:

Pick: Bills +1 (-112) Buffalo’s home dominance and Allen’s MVP-level play give them a slight edge.
