The Baltimore Ravens play the Buffalo Bills in an NFL Week 8 game in Buffalo on November 1, 2026. Lamar Jackson was a full participant in practice on Wednesday, his first since the Week 4 ankle injury, and the Ravens' head coach said he is back for the game. The discussion weighs Buffalo's bye-week streak, about 11 years without a loss after the break, and Josh Allen's 7-0 career record coming off a bye against Jackson's durability: he has missed 19 games since the middle of 2021. The latest angle is Buffalo's pass defense, ranked 31st in EPA per play and 30th in success rate, set against a Bills team that is 4-0 when allowing 30 or more points.
