Decision audit

Evidence-driven

Why the pick wins
Cincinnati Bengals projects ahead on road EPA per play and holds the trench advantage (60 DL grade). The market is pricing the opponent's recent record rather than underlying efficiency.
Why the pick loses
Variance in a medium-volatility game. A single turnover swing or red-zone sequence flips the projected margin.
Biggest risk
Late line movement against the recommended side would erase most of the estimated edge.
Biggest unknown
Snap-count allocation for the returning skill players.
What would change this
Confirmed inactives, a starting-quarterback change, a two-point-or-greater line move, or a wind forecast revision above 18 mph.

Material disagreement. The EPA and matchup models are more bullish on LAC than the market and injury models. The recommendation weights the market model heavily because the injury picture is unresolved; treat the probability as a range, not a point estimate.
