I hate doing this but I think it's easy money.
DENVER -4 more than triple my usual bet.
If the Ravens win I won't feel so bad but if they lose and cover I'll be besides myself.
I think the Broncos blow them out and I think the line will be 7 by gametime.
I threw -210 at it on the moneyline(and I never...I mean NEVER lay that kind of wood)....I know that manning is having a bit of difficulty getting comfy with kubiak`s system(well,ditto the ravens with trestman)....yes,i know he looks 49 instead of 39 out there......but he`s still manning and that defense is loaded to the gills...it`s early in the season and manning is about as fresh as he`ll be at any point this season.....
the ravens are injured...secondary issues..rb and wr depth...def line depth is not there....no ko or punt returner...
yes it`s s painful...sure....but I`m not going to ignore a gambling opportunity out of blind loyalty...that would be ridiculous.......the ravens` early schedule is unbelievably tough(5 of their first 7 on the road).....
ngata gone...torrey smith gone....owen daniels gone(and all the guys replacing them are 1st or 2nd year men...ngata`s replacement tim Jernigan is already out for the game)....our solid back-up rb Taliaferro hurt......no breshad perriman(behind him 3 undrafted free agents)....our most experienced tight end is in his second year and maxx Williams looks like he`s never spent time in a weight room...
can the ravens win?....anything`s possible...flacco can be a flat out beast on the road when the chips are down...but theres just too many injuries...too many unproven guys forced to play...too much going on..
check the comparative injury ratings for teams(the graph a little ways down the page)...

the 1st half of the season could be very rough...but if we get some guys healthy and the young guys start to get it(that`s quite a bit to expect),we could be fairly decent heading down the stretch with a very favorable late schedule....
I`m with you brother..i`m not happy to wager against them....but I`m not fan-blind either........
