Re: Ravens 8 Point Favorites
I don't gamble but I see this one being another blow-out. The Ravens are a different offense at home and there is nothing that gets Sizzle up like piss and black. Batch can't throw the long ball anymore and that cuts down on their receivers speed advantage so I expect at least two picks, one returned for a score.
Re: Ravens 8 Point Favorites
I agree, but the Ravens coaching staff may tell Joe to turtle up and let Pitt make a mistake which would keep the game close.

You didn't watch Charlie play last week?

No Pgh - Balt game should be over 3 points - no matter who is or isn't playing.

I agree. With Ben in I could see Ravens being 3 or 3.5 point favorites. With Homestead Charlie, the 3rd string QB starting, the line being between 8 and 10 is about right. Lets not forget how well the Ravens offense plays at home as well. I am hoping for a close game with you all, but a shellacking could be in the making.
Re: Ravens 8 Point Favorites
The site that I ... uh... check the spreads on has closed betting for this game.
Last time they did that for a Ravens game was against Jacksonville.
I am no conspiracy theorist, but if there was ever a game for Vegas to slip the Refs a few bucks, it was that game. Our WR's were mugged all game with no calls. So if things don't go our way, that's what I 'm blaming it on.
