The Super Bowl 47 odds are finally posted, and today, I’m set to make my Super Bowl pointspread picks for the ‘total’ in the biggest game of the season. The Baltimore Ravens and the San Francisco 49ers are going to do battle at the Mercedes Benz Superdome in New Orleans, LA. Join me for my free Super Bowl tips for this 6:30 p.m. ET kickoff that can be seen on CBS.

Over the course of the last several seasons, the 49ers have really struggled and struggled mightily against this vaunted Baltimore defense. The team has scored just 19 points in three games, including just six when these two met up last season at M&T Bank Stadium. However, the Niners definitely have some talent offensively that they have showcased over the course of the last several weeks. QB Colin Kaepernick has proven that he is one of the best in the biz at the moment, and he can do just about anything that he is asked to do. I love the way that he runs that read option, and though I know that he isn’t going to run for anywhere near 181 yards like he did against the Packers a few weeks back, the Ravens have to always be aware of his running abilities.

Super Bowl Picks
Baltimore Ravens (13-6, 9-9-1 ATS) +4
New England Patriots (13-4-1, 11-7 ATS) -4
Over/Under 47.5

The Ravens, too, have flexed their offensive muscles over the course of the last few weeks. They have scored at least 24 in four straight meaningful games (forget about that Week 17 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals, as that game really didn’t mean anything and most of the starters didn’t play nearly the full game). QB Joe Flacco now has the buzz of being an elite quarterback after outdueling QB Peyton Manning and QB Tom Brady in back to back games. The former Delaware Blue Hen has done well, throwing for eight TDs. Most importantly to me, though? Not a single interception! RB Ray Rice is averaging over 80 yards per game on the ground in the playoffs, and those are big time numbers against defenses that have been pretty darn stout for the most part over the course of the season. WR Anquan Boldin is catching everything that is coming his way, and he and WR Torrey Smith each have a two-TD game under their belt here in the postseason.

Notice that I’m talking a lot about these two offenses? I think that this ‘total’ has already dropped too far. The Baltimore defense has played better ball than it probably ever could have been expected to play here in the second season, but I have to take those emotions out of it. This is the same unit that allowed 43 to the Houston Texans and 31 to the Washington Redskins, 34 to the Denver Broncos the first time around, and 30 against the New England Patriots back in Week 3. The 49ers, on the other hand, should be a lot better than they have been here in the second season as well. However, they really haven’t looked great against the best competition that they have run up against all season long, and that is definitely worrisome to me, as it should be to the San Fran nation. In the end, asking for 48 points isn’t all that much in relation to what we’ve seen over the course of the last few weeks. It has been one of the highest postseasons in NFL history, both on average points per game and total points scored, and this could be another one of these games that gets into the 50s when push comes to shove.

Super Bowl Picks & Tips: Over 47.5

Super Bowl 47 is officially here! Here at Cappers Info, we’re not just giving you information about how to bet the side and total for the game, but we’re also taking a look at some of the great Super Bowl props that are on the board. Don’t miss out on the other ways that we are going to make money on the Super Bowl, as we make our Superbowl prop picks for the San Francisco 49ers and the Baltimore Ravens.

Ray Rice Rushing Attempts Over 17.5 (+115): It’s a nice percentage play here, knowing that we are getting +115 on the prop. John Harbaugh is going to want to run the heck out of the football and try to establish the ground game against a San Francisco defense that is incredibly difficult to run against. Rice carried the ball at least 18 times nine times this year in 18 games (throw out the Week 17 game against the Bengals), and that in itself is good enough for us. To make it sweeter though, Rice also had seven games with at least 18 carries since the team’s bye week in Week 8.

Frank Gore Rushing Attempts Over 19.5 (-105): Again, we’ve got a pretty good idea that Head Coach Jim Harbaugh is going to be just like his brother, trying to establish the running game. The difference is that the Ravens have proven to be a suspect team against the rush this year, and Gore has been waiting all year long to be unleashed in a game like this one. He had 21 and 23 carries in his two playoff games this year, and he now has at least 20 carries in five of his last seven games. There’s no reason to think that he won’t get to at least 20 in this one as well.

San Francisco Uses First Timeout (-110): It can happen to anyone. The play clock is inevitably going to be running down on one of these two quarterbacks, and someone, probably in the first quarter, is going to blow a timeout. With all that there is going on in the San Francisco offense before the snap, it seems more likely that QB Colin Kaepernick is going to be the one signaling for the timeout, as opposed to QB Joe Flacco. This seems like a 50/50 prop that truthfully might be anything but.

5Dimes

Joe Flacco Longest Completion Under 41.5 Yards (-120): Flacco takes a lot of deep shots down the field, but this San Francisco secondary is going to have him under wraps when he tries to take those deep balls. Remember that in Flacco’s last five games of the regular season, he only had two completed passes that went beyond 42 yards. This is the toughest matchup he has had in terms of a secondary here in the second season, and quite possibly all year long.

Total First Downs Made Under 40.5 (-120): We have seen a ridiculously high scoring postseason this year, and we think that that is going to stop in this one. These two teams combined to average over 46 first downs per game here in the playoffs, but when you look back at the regular season stats, you’ll find a different tale. San Fran averaged 20.1 first downs per game. Baltimore was at just 19.6. Defensively, the Ravens conceded 20.4 first downs per game. The Niners just 17.8, best in the NFC. This one just doesn’t feel like it is exceeding 40 first downs.

Baltimore Ravens Have a Scoreless Quarter (-325): The Ravens have done a lot of scoring here in the postseason, but that has to come to a close in this one. The 49ers have a fantastic defense with the ability to do a heck of a lot of damage, and they are going to ultimately keep Baltimore scoreless in at least one quarter at least four out of five times.

No Score in First 14:30 (+708): Two Super Bowls in the last 10 years featured scoreless first quarters, and it was very rare that the first quarter featured more than one touchdown. We think that it’s worth a shot that basically the whole first quarter goes by the boards with a single point being scored. We also like no score in the first 10 minutes at +298 as well.

San Francisco Rushing Yards Under 154.5 (-110): Sure, we know that QB Colin Kaepernick is going to add to the rushing total for the team, but this is still a whole boatload of yards for a team to account for. The Ravens averaged allowing just 122.8 yards per game this year. That was bad as it is, ranking 20th in the league. Remember that the Niners picked up fewer than 150 rushing yards as a team in three of their last four games.

Total Rushing Yards Under 255.5 (-115): Even better. The 49ers are overrated on the ground. They also have an out of this world rush defense that isn’t going to be obliterated by RB Ray Rice and the gang. This is a great prop in our eyes. Under 729.5 total yards Is a great play, too.

5Dimes

Colin Kaepernick Under 43.5 Rushing Yards (+140): The Ravens have spent the past two weeks trying to figure out how to keep Kaepernick in the pocket and make him a pocket passer. Forget about that huge game against the Packers; that was an insane statistical anomaly. Instead, look at the two carries for 21 yards that he had against the Falcons in the NFC Championship Game. A much, much better representation of what we might see on Super Bowl Sunday.

Vernon Davis Longest Reception Under 20.5 Yards/No Reception (-110): Davis was a big part of the passing game two weeks ago versus Green Bay, but he only had seven receptions in his previous seven games prior to that. We have to think that there is a chance that he is going to have no catches in this game, and that being said, it’s going to be tough to get one beyond 20 yards regardless of that fact.

Michael Crabtree Scores a Touchdown (+100): Crabtree has didn’t score in the NFC Championship Game, but he did find the end zone twice in three of his previous four games. We have to think that there is at least a 50/50 chance that he is going to score in this one as well, as he has a great rapport with Kaepernick.

Vernon Davis Doesn’t Score a TD (-195): Davis had just one touchdown grab with Kaepernick calling the shots until the NFC Championship Game. There’s no way that he is scoring in more than one out of three games in a spot like this.

Ray Rice Pass Receptions Over Vernon Davis (+105): Again, how many receptions could Davis possibly have in this game? Three or four at the absolute most? Rice is the constant in the passing game for Baltimore, and he did catch 61 passes in the regular season and another four here in the playoffs. If Rice gets to three, we like our chances of winning this prop at least half the time and not losing it more than half of the time.

And it all comes down to this! The Baltimore Ravens and the San Francisco 49ers are going to square off for all of the marbles at Super Bowl 47. The AFC winners and NFC winners have come a long way to get to this point, but only one team can beat the Super Bowl odds and ultimately lift the Lombardi Trophy. Check out our NFL free picks and Super Bowl predictions for the biggest game of the season.

Super Bowl Picks: Baltimore Ravens vs. San Francisco 49ers
Super Bowl Date/Time: Sunday, February 3rd, 6:30 ET
Super Bowl Location: Mercedes Benz Superdome, New Orleans, LA
Superbowl Odds: San Francisco -4
Super Bowl On TV: CBS

On first glance, we have to wonder if the drop on the odds to win the Super Bowl are right or not. The Ravens opened up at +5.5 and quickly dipped all the way down to +3.5 before stabilizing at +4. As of Monday night, almost two thirds of the betting public is backing the men in purple and black after Baltimore’s strong performances against what was perceived to be the top two teams in the league, the Denver Broncos and the New England Patriots. In both of those games, QB Joe Flacco came to play, and he now has eight touchdowns without throwing a pick here in the second season. Flacco has done a nice job getting the ball down the field to WR Torrey Smith, and into tight spots with some help from WR Anquan Boldin. RB Ray Rice continues to pound the ball, while the defense has suddenly renewed some of its life from yesteryear. LB Ray Lewis is going to be playing in his very last game on Super Bowl Sunday, and that should add even more intensity for what should already be a tremendously amped up defense.

5Dimes

The 49ers have slouched just a bit at times on the defensive side of the ball here in the playoffs, but we know that they is the exception, not the rule with what we have gotten used to seeing with this team. San Francisco did have a Top 5 ranked defense both against the run and the pass this year, and though the team has allowed a ton of points, we do have to remember that it absolutely shut down the Atlanta Falcons after falling behind 17-0 early on, and the ‘D’ only truly allowed 17 meaningful points to the Green Bay Packers the week before. QB Colin Kaepernick is going to do a lot in OC Greg Romans’ offense, and he is going to have to be smart with the football, as a passer, and as a pivot for the offense. Even on those plays when Kaepernick either calls his own number and runs, or has to make a read option whether to keep it or put the ball in the gut of RB Frank Gore or one of the other backs, every decision is crucial. To this point, no one can argue the fact that Kaepernick has been the best quarterback, at least on the NFC side of the playoffs.

In the end, we truthfully believe that this is one of the toughest Super Bowl point spreads to handicap in quite some time. If this were any other game, we would truthfully want to stay away from this one, knowing that this could legitimately end up going either way. That being said, we think that the magic of the Ravens is going to at least keep this one close from start to finish. This could very easily be the very first Super Bowl to go to overtime, and it could be another one of these games that is decided with a kick right at the very end. If for no other reason than that, with K Justin Tucker full of confidence for the Ravens, and K David Akers struggling for the 49ers to the point that he might not even be the place kicker come Super Bowl Sunday, we’ll take the points. We think that Lewis is going to go out on top with the Lombardi Trophy in tote, making for a storybook ending to a magical season for the Ravens.

The 2013 NFL playoffs schedule is back, and here at Cappers Info, we’ll be looking at some of the best games on the docket each and every week, as we try to make the most money possible off of the AFC Championship Game odds for the NFL. Join us on Sunday, as we make our Baltimore Ravens @ New England Patriots free picks and predictions for what should be a great clash on the gridiron.

AFC Championship Game Picks: Baltimore Ravens @ New England Patriots
Date: Sunday, January 20th, 6:30 ET
Location: Gillette Stadium, Foxboro, MA
Ravens @ Patriots Odds: New England -8
Ravens @ Patriots On TV: CBS

This is really all setting up perfectly for us to make a big time bet in a very unusual spot. The common thought is that the AFC Championship Game – the last step before the Super Bowl – is going to be a close game. It almost has to be, right? After all, these are theoretically the best two teams in the AFC that are going to be warring with one another. After all, these two teams have played three straight games that have been decided by three points or fewer. And the Patriots haven’t won a game in this series by more than six points since 2004. And the Ravens have played remarkable ball in the playoffs thus far. On top of that, every sports talk media jock thinks that this is going to be a close game, because after all, Baltimore was able to go on the road and beat the supposedly unbeatable Denver Broncos last week.

Unfortunately for the Ravens, matters aren’t going to be this easy by any stretch of the imagination. Baltimore wasn’t good down the stretch of the season, and we think that that was a lot better representation of what we are going to see on Sunday in the AFC Championship Game. QB Joe Flacco tends to press in games like this one, and we just can’t figure that he is really ready to step up and win in the AFC Championship Game in spite of the fact that he made the throw last year that should have won this very same fixture in this very same stadium. Meanwhile, QB Tom Brady has been there and done that, and he has already won 17 playoff games in his career, the most all-time in NFL history. With one more win, he’ll be the first to start in six Super Bowls at the QB position.

In the end, we think that New England is just clearly the better of these two teams. We just don’t see how Baltimore is going to slow down this offense, and we don’t think that Flacco and the gang are going to be able to keep up. The magical retirement trail of LB Ray Lewis is finally going to come to an end. There are only so many times that a team can catch lightning in a bottle. We saw it come to an end for the Seahawks last week, but now, an even more touched team is going to get what’s coming to it. Just like the Broncos came to Foxboro last year and were smacked down, we think that this New England team is one on a mission. The Patriots want to win this game, and they want to get back to the Super Bowl, where they will hope to avenge a home loss against the 49ers and more importantly, last year’s loss to the Giants in the big one. This one will be over by halftime.

Baltimore at New England Pick: New England Patriots -8
Ravens @ Patriots Score Prediction: New England 38 – Baltimore 17

The NFL playoff schedule is out for this week, and today, I’m set to make my NFL playoffs pointspread picks for the ‘total’ in this crucial clash. The Baltimore Ravens and the New England Patriots are going to do battle at Gillette Stadium in Foxboro, MA. Join me for my AFC Championship Game tips for this 6:30 p.m. ET kickoff that can be seen on CBS.

Earlier this year, the Ravens and the Patriots combined to put up 61 points on the board. On top of that, all four games in the Divisional Round of the playoffs exceeded the ‘total’. It’s really setting up for an inflated ‘total’, and that’s exactly what I think has happened in this game between two teams that have fairly good defenses.

AFC Championship Game Picks
Baltimore Ravens (12-6, 8-9-1 ATS) +8
New England Patriots (13-4, 10-7 ATS) -8
Over/Under 51.5

It goes without saying that the New England offense is out of this world. The team runs all over the place, right up to the line of scrimmage quite often, and it is rare to see a defense shut this unit down. The implication is that the Pats are going to be scoring over 30 points in this game with QB Tom Brady at the helm. And why not? New England has scored at least 30 11 times in 17 games this year, including putting up at least 40 in six games, including four times since the team’s Week 9 bye. The club finished the year ranked first in the NFL in total yards at 427.9 yards per game and in scoring at 34.8 points per game. I’m still just not quite buying 51.5, though.

Remember that, against a relatively comparable Denver offense last week, the Ravens only allowed 21 defensive points, and that came in over five quarters of play, not four. Yes, there were a lot of yards conceded, but there were a lot of yards conceded the week before against the Indianapolis Colts, too. The end result in that game? Nine points allowed, all field goals. Before this past year, the previous seven meetings of these two teams since 2000 all featured 51 points or fewer, and that includes a pair of 23-20 games from the 2012 playoffs and the 2010 regular season, both of which were played here in Foxboro. It’s just all too much. I love how over 60% of the bets are on the ‘over’ in this game, yet the line really isn’t moving all that much (just a half point). I think there are going to be some big time bets on the ‘under’ when it’s all said and done, and mine is going to be one of them.

I’ve been studying the ‘total’ for the NFL Playoffs odds for quite some time, and I’m ready to make my Divisional Round picks for the clash between the Denver Broncos and the Baltimore Ravens. The Baltimore vs. Denver kickoff is set for 4:30 p.m. ET at Sports Authority Field at Mile High, and I’m going to show you which way to bet on the NFL playoffs to make your NFL pick on for this great game.

Divisional Round Playoff Picks
Baltimore Ravens (11-6, 7-9-1 ATS) +9
Denver Broncos (13-3, 10-6 ATS) -9
Over/Under 45.5

When the Ravens and the Broncos met the first time around a month ago, the end result really wasn’t all that pretty for Baltimore. The only reason this game exceeded the ‘total’ was because QB Joe Flacco hooked up with TE Dennis Pitta for two touchdowns in the fourth quarter. However, there are definitely some reasons to believe that this could be a high scoring game. There were four touchdowns that covered at least 30 yards and three of those went for at least 50 yards. Yet for some reason, the oddsmakers have dropped the ‘total’ in this game from the 48 that it was listed at four weeks ago to 45.5 in this one at Mile High.

I know that the Broncos have a great defense, and I know all about Baltimore’s offense has had some problems here in the playoffs historically. I also know that last week, the Ravens defense held the Indianapolis Colts to just three field goals. However, the Colts did end up putting up 25 first downs and 419 total yards from scrimmage, and that doesn’t bode well against a significantly better team on the road. QB Peyton Manning has been out of this world this year, and if you take away his very first two games playing with the Broncos and prorated that over the course of the rest of the season, he would have thrown for 4,760 yards and 39 TDs against nine picks. He threw for at least three touchdown passes nine times this year, and he threw for at least 300 yards nine times as well. Not surprisingly, there were at least 34 points scored in each of the last three games this year, and in 11 games this year, Manning led his team to at least 30 points.

The Broncos went 6-2-1 for ‘over’ bettors in their last nine games, and both of their games in the playoffs last year eclipsed the ‘total’ with relative ease as well. Baltimore should have allowed just a ton more points last week against the Colts, and it isn’t going to get away with that on Saturday at Mile High. As long as QB Joe Flacco and the gang find a way to put at least 14 on the board, I’ve got confidence that this game is going to get past the ‘total’.

NFL Playoffs Picks: Baltimore Ravens at Denver Broncos

NFL Playoffs Betting Odds: Denver -9
Baltimore vs. Denver Live TV: CBS

Immediately, there has been a heck of a lot of betting on the Broncos, and it really seems difficult to try argue with that point. The first time around when these two teams met, the Ravens were trampled, and the only reason that the game ended up being anywhere near remotely close was because QB Joe Flacco threw a pair of touchdown passes in the fourth quarter of the game. Even that left the final score at 34-17, and like we said, matters really weren’t all that close. Add in the fact that the Ravens had to play last week, while the Broncos were resting, and now they have to travel all the way back to Mile High… It’s clear to see why Denver is getting all of the action.

But take a closer look at that game that was played in Week 14. The Ravens had the ball deep in Denver territory down 10-0 of a close, defensive battle when QB Joe Flacco threw a pick six that covered 98 yards. As a result, what should have been a 10-7game at intermission was a 17-0 game that ultimately never looked the same as it should have. A 51-yard touchdown pass from QB Peyton Manning to WR Eric Decker blew the game open, and RB Knowshon Moreno finished the game with a six-yard touchdown run a few minutes later. Manning though, only threw for 204 yards and a TD. Granted, we know that Baltimore has to do a better job against the run, and RB Ray Rice clearly can’t only rush for 38 yards on 12 carries. However, there are definitely some signs that this could be a better result for the men in purple and black.

In the end, we also have to remember that nine points is a whole heck of a lot. LB Ray Lewis is playing in his very last game if he loses, and he doesn’t want to go out like this one. Baltimore beat the Colts by 14 points in spite of the fact that it was dominated in time of possession. The question is going to be whether Flacco and the gang are really ready for this. The argument could be made that the Ravens should have won the AFC Championship Game last year against the New England Patriots on the road. This definitely isn’t a tough game than that one was, and this could ultimately be the day that Ray Ray and the gang prove that, in spite of the fact that it has been a tough year, there is still a little bit of magic left in the tank.

Baltimore vs. Denver Pick: Baltimore Ravens +9.5

January 6th, 2013 By Jack Wilshire

I’ve been studying the ‘total’ for the NFL Playoffs odds for quite some time, and I’m ready to make my Wild Card picks for the clash between the Baltimore Ravens and the Indianapolis Colts. The Indianapolis vs. Baltimore kickoff is set for 1:00 p.m. ET at M&T Bank Stadium, and I’m going to show you which way to bet on the NFL playoffs to make your NFL pick on for this great game.

Wild Card Playoff Picks
Indianapolis Colts (11-5, 11-5 ATS) +7
Baltimore Ravens (10-6, 6-9-1 ATS) -7
Over/Under 47

The ‘over’ has been getting a lot of play from the so called “NFL handicapping experts” in this one, and I tend to agree that the sharper of the two sides is banking on a number of points to be scored. Yes, I know all about LB Ray Lewis and the fact that this is going to be the last game he ever plays at home, if not the last game of his career, but the truth of the matter is that he is a heck of a lot more of an emotional leader at this point than he is a fantastic linebacker, and he is playing for the first time in almost three months after tearing a bicep muscle. It wasn’t a mistake that this club ranked 17th in the game in total defense this year, a far cry from the normal numbers that we’re used to seeing from the men in black and purple.

Remember that the offense for Baltimore is also better this year to boot. The team averaged 24.9 points per game this year thanks to nearly 4,000 passing yards by QB Joe Flacco. The team struggled some down the stretch, but this is an Indy defense that is coming to town that has already allowed 29.1 points per game on the road this year. Keep a close eye on RB Ray Rice as well. Rice didn’t even have 1,200 rushing yards for the season, but he still has the potential to do a tremendous number against this Indianapolis rush defense, which allowed 137.5 rushing yards per game and just gave up over 300 yards on the ground to the Kansas City Chiefs.

The Colts are going to throw the ball all over the place on a secondary that really hasn’t been as good ever since DB LaDarius Webb has been knocked out for the season. QB Andrew Luck broke the record for the most passing yards in a season for a rookie with 4,374. He did throw 18 picks, but he also put the ball in the air 627 times to boot. Luck has shown the ability to hit the big time play, most notably to WR T.Y. Hilton, who had over 1,300 all-purpose yards this year. Indy did only average 22.3 points per game this year, but over the course of the last nine games of the year, that scoring average has been 24.6 points per game, which is a lot more along the lines of what I’m expecting to see when this one is said and done with.

Emotion is going to be a big time factor in this game on both sides, but as gamblers, we are going to have to put all of this aside. There is definitely going to be some added spunk for the Baltimore defense with LB Ray Lewis playing his final home game, and potentially his final game ever is quite the story for a man that has been the face of this franchise for over a decade and a half. But on the other side, this is the start of a new dynasty of Indianapolis football. QB Andrew Luck is one of the six key rookies on this totally revamped offense. It’s also the return of Head Coach Chuck Pagano to Baltimore, where he was a defensive coach for four seasons before taking over as the man in charge of the Colts. Of course, it’s also just the second game back in the saddle for Pagano after his three-month battle with leukemia that kept him away from the team.

The Ravens are certainly an underachieving team this year, having gone just 10-6 a year off of a trip to the AFC Championship Game. QB Joe Flacco had a nice season, throwing for nearly 4,000 yards, but he still has a heck of a challenge to win over the fans in Baltimore. For as great as this offense was at times, there were some games in which this club really slacked in a big time way. RB Ray Rice didn’t rush for even 1,200 yards this year either, and WR Torrey Smith and WR Anquan Boldin both felt like they were off from what their potential was, especially with the way that Flacco played at times.

But can an Indianapolis team that was gashed at times on the ground really keep up with the mighty Ravens who have such a great playoff history? This game reminds us of a game that Baltimore played a few years ago versus the New England Patriots in Foxboro. The Ravens came away victorious in that one, and it really started this run of good fortunate in the playoffs over the course of the last several seasons. Luck is a star in the making, and we think that he has the better team in this game. The offense has shown that it can be explosive, and it is only a few plays away from pulling off this upset and getting into the second round of the playoffs. If there is a big upset in the cards this weekend, this is the game for that to happen.

The Ravens are the only team with anything to play for in this game, knowing that they can get up to the No. 3 seed if they win and the Patriots ultimately lose. However, we really don’t think that Head Coach John Harbaugh really cares too much about all of this, and he just wants to get through this game healthy. If the Ravens and the Bengals both essentially make this a preseason game, we want the points on our side. We trust QB Tyrod Taylor to be able to get the ball moving up the field, and as he proved last week, RB Bernard Pierce does have the ability to run the rock with authority behind a great (and deep) offensive line. This really does feel like it is nothing more than a crapshoot of a game, and though the Bengals might be interested in keeping some momentum going in this one, we have historically seen that when it doesn’t mean anything to Head Coach Marvin Lewis, he tends to just call off the dogs, and a terrible game is the end result. We like the ‘under’. We love the Ravens even more.

Week 16 NFL Picks: New York Giants @ Baltimore Ravens
Date: Sunday, December 23rd, 4:25 ET
Location: M&T Bank Stadium, Baltimore, MD
NFL Betting Odds: New York -2.5
Giants vs. Ravens On TV: FOX

We’re really questioning what the oddsmakers were thinking when they made this line. Actually, they obviously knew what they were doing, because over 60% of the betting action has been on the G-Men in spite of the fact that they are favorites on the road against a team that didn’t lose a single road game all of last year. QB Joe Flacco and the gang are on the verge of one of the biggest collapses in regular season NFL history. However, we must remember that New York was 6-2 as well through the first half of the season, and now, it could end up missing out on the playoffs as well. There are a heck of a lot of teams that are hoping that the G-Men end up falling in this one, as that would give a lot of teams control of their own destiny to get into the playoffs. Ironically, the Giants don’t hold their own cards, but they can clinch a playoff bid this week with some help. That being said, this just feels like one of those games when push comes to shove when Baltimore figures out how to pull it out and stop the bleeding. This team is just too talented to lose three straight games at home.
