AAA's 3-GM WEEK 3 EARLY NFL REPORT (CASHED IN BOTH WEEKS 1 and 2!)
(NFL) Arizona vs. Buffalo, 09/25/2016 9:00 AM, Score: 18 - 33
Total: 47.00 | -105.00 Under
Result: Win
This is an 8* play on the OVER between the Arizona Cardinals and the Buffalo Bills.

Setting the scene: Arizona is 1-1, losing to the Pats on opening Sunday Night Football, before then rebounding to smash the Bucs 40-7 last week. Both contests went UNDER the number. The Bills are 0-2 and enter this one with a "do-or-die" mentality. With road games at New England and across the country in LA upcoming, Rex Ryan and company are going to be forced to open up the playbook today to keep pace with the high-flying Cards.

Arizona: The Cards looked great against Tampa Bay last week, QB Carson Palmer threw for three TD's and had 308 yards total. The defense also forced Jameis Winston into five turnovers. In the end Arizona would win the yardage battle 416-306. RB Chris Johnson led the attack on the ground, finishing with 54 yards off 16 carries and a major score. WR Larry Fitzgerald already has 14 catches for 162 yards and three TD's this year.

Buffalo: Offensive coordinator Greg Roman was let go after the 0-2 start, meaning that RB coach Anthony Lynn becomes the team's fifth OC to serve under Ryan in the last six years. The defense looked like a mess in the loss against the Jets, allowing 493 yards and 28 first downs. QB Tyrod Taylor looked a lot better after a shaky opener, finishing with a career-high 297 yards and three touchdowns.

The bottom line: Note that Arizona has seen the total go OVER the number in five of its last six road games when the total is set between 42.5 and 49 points, while Buffalo has seen the total sail above the posted number in two of its last three at home. All signs point to the OVER as the savvy move in this contest.
