NFL Betting Week 15 - Ravens (- 3.5) vs. Dolphins (+ 3.5)
Without a doubt this is my play of the
weekend. Why? Because I cannot believe
that either one of these teams are as a
bad as their records indicate. I understand
that the Dolphins lost last week to the
Buffalo Bills by the score of 38 to 14
and that they lost the week before to the
New York Jets 40 to 13.
I also understand that the Baltimore Ravens
have lost 7 games in a row, but I just
have to believe that one of these teams
is going to have a good game this week.
Before I get into why I believe this is
an opportunity for NFL bettors, I want
to throw some pretty alarming trends out
there:
The Baltimore Ravens are 2 and 12 against
the spread in their last 14 games.
The Miami Dolphins are 9-26-1 against
the spread in their last 39 home games.
Wow. This is like deciding which girl
to dance with at the local hoe-down Ugly
or her twin Butt-Ugly.
Man, this
is bad. But, where there is bad there
may also be an opportunity! And, I’m
jumping all over it!
The Baltimore Ravens have one of the best
running backs in the NFL in Willis McGahee,
but they also have decided to quit on the
season. That was apparent last Sunday night
when the Indianapolis Colts stormed all
over them.
The Miami
Dolphins? They quit on this season about
8 games ago, but there’s
something about this week that makes me
think that the Dolphins have a shot to
win this one straight-up. First, they’ve
lost some very close games this year: 0
to 3 versus Pittsburgh, 7 to 17 versus
Philadelphia, 10 to 13 versus Buffalo,
and 10 to 13 versus the Giants.
Now, these Dolphins get to face Kyle Boller
and a Ravens team that has been decimated
by injuries and attitude. The truth about
the Baltimore Ravens is that they are old
and not only play like old men but also
think like old men.
All the Dolphins
have top do to win this game is to put
8 men in the box to take away McGahee
and then play the Ravens’ wide-receivers
man to man. If they do that then good times
won’t return, but at least they won’t
become the first team to go 0 and 16 in
the history of the NFL.
This is the
Dolphins’ only chance
to win this year. They have to do something,
right? Why not against a bunch of old men
parading around like NFL football players.
The BetUS Football line is Miami Dolphins
+ 3.5 against the spread at home.
Don’t even think about that wager.
It’s the Fish to the house in this
one, friends!
