Browns @ Ravens - Let's Talk!

[AnkAnk]

Hey - hope you guys are having a good handicapping weekend. Let's talk about this Sunday Night game:

Browns VS Ravens (-6.5)

This is a heated rivalry game and I'm not sure if there will be an offensive touchdown - lol. Jamal Lewis will be back but the Browns held him to under 60 yards in the last outing and in this game, Ravens will be missing Johnathan Ogden.

I see this as a very close game and think there is value here with playing the Browns here +6.5.

My Pick: Browns

Good Luck To All!!

ravens are home and have revenge and clev is 0-3 on the road bad spot for the browns like ravens here

 

[TJBELL]

RAVENS BIG!!!!

Just my 2 cents!

 

[mjalam]

i like the browns in a semi close game as well

don't know if i'm gonna bet it though

 

[AnkAnk]

Hey guys - thanks for your thoughts. Just think that this will be a low scoring affair and that the 6.5 points will come into play - atleast that is what I'm hoping for. The Browms aren't as bad as some people might think. They took the Eagles to overtime and are also coming off a bye. If the Browns don't cover the spread - I hope you guys made it your biggest play. Good luck!

Over/Under

Do not underestimate the HUGE loss of J ogden not playing. Stats and trends are for suckers and squares. How is the mental and physical state of these 2 teams? Who will have the edge in matchups o line vs. d line. Who will execute the game plan? Will clev. take the first punch hang around and keep this game close?

Thoughts on best teaser for tonight:

Ravens -1 , Over 30
Ravens -1, Under 42
Browns +13, Over 30
Brown +13, Under 42

I'm leaning towards Ravens -1, Over 30. Thoughts, comments, suggestions?

ogden also missed game 1 against the browns and that was a huge factor in lewis being shut down...however, i am playing ravens -3 1st half...but not touching the entire game

Personally I would play Browns +13....who knows on the total.

Sports Psychic and oldschoolcapper are on the right track by stating that Ogden will be a big factor.

IF you are going to play Ravens -1 and the total, I would just play the Ravens moneyline and not have to worry about the total.

Yeah, I am starting to like Browns more I think about it. Problem with Ravens ML is it is -300!

Such an ugly game, I'd be smart to just lay off - but have to feed the addiction!

 

[AnkAnk]

"but have to feed the addiction!"

HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAH - unfortunetely, I know EXACTLY what you mean. Fluk, the Ravens can win this game by thirty but I really see it as a close game and to tell you the truth, the Browns might come out with a W. The Browns are coming off a bye and are going to be able to move the ball (somewhat) against these Ravens. If you are going to tease the line on this game - I would close it on the MNF game tomorrow (IMO) as opposed to trying to tease the total as well. Good luck!

When in doubt go with the better coach toss up here. Billick will usually play not to lose. I see a 24-21 final

 

[AnkAnk]

My site actually has it at Browns +7 (-115) so will be playing that. Good luck!!

some interesting locker room stuff came out toward the end of this week. browns defense feels baltimore is making excuses for week 1 and not giving them credit for taking it to 'em.

one thing ive learned about the browns in baltimore:

the spread doesnt come into play.

if you like the browns, play the moneyline.
if you like the ravens, dont worry about laying the pts.

browns have either pulled upsets or gotten smashed in this stadium since coming back.

 

[AnkAnk]

Wow - ugly 1st half. Hope my Browns can hang on and cover the 7 points. Good luck!
