Just went back and updated my record for the year in the NFL, its noted in my signature. I am having a very good year posting only Teaser and HT plays in the NFL. I'm also leading an NFL Pickem Contest where we pick against the spread for all games each week. I have a 86-57 Record 60.1% 
so far (check ESPN for Holybowler300 to verify) but the lines are off from what they are on Sunday, so I haven't posted my picks from that contest. Besides, I would never recommend picking every game, although I do at HT, but I see that as different. In the contest, I have yet to have a losing week, going 8-8 in week 2, other than that, it's all in the BLACK!!:00hour
Enough bragging... on to the game tonight.
I am liking the Home Dog plus the points in a teaser along with the OVER. CLEV biggest threat on offense is Joshua Cribbs. With the bye week, I'm sure they put in several plays with CRIBBS featured. BALT DEF is not as good as it has been in the past, in fact, BALT has not fared well on the road this year, going 1-3 (albeit vs FOUR PLAYOFF TEAMS) but giving up an average of nearly 26 PTS a game! :scared BALT went for nearly 350 Passing in the first match up in MD, and I expect more of the same, although CLEV is missing both inside LB so Ray Rice may hit the gut more often than normal. I think CLEV gets a fluke TD on a big play, either a RETURN by CRIBBS, or perhaps a screen or option out of the Wildcat, and another score by Jamaal Lewis who will be fired up vs his old team for the last time. I figure CLE scores 14-17 pts here at home off the bye, and BAL goes for 24 to 27. No matter, I don't see a blowout, it's MONDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL folks, strange things happen especially with over matched Home Dogs.
7 Point Teaser*
CLE +17.5 & OVER 31.5 *** TRIPLE PLAY ***
Good luck! :SIB
* I normally play 6.5 PTS, but with the line as it is, I want the hook off the key number 17.
