The Baltimore Ravens and Pittsburgh Steelers meet for the third time this season with a trip to the Super Bowl at stake. The Ravens will be trying to beat the Steelers for the first time this season while the Steelers will be trying to beat the Ravens for the third time this season.
I’m surprised that the NFL schedulers decided to make this the day game and the Arizona Cardinals vs. Carolina Panthers the night game this Saturday. To me, this is the much more intriguing game, and I believe most sports bettors would agree with me, as the Baltimore Ravens defense looked absolutely spectacular this past Sunday when dominating the Miami Dolphins.
Both the Baltimore Ravens and Miami Dolphins finished the season with 11 and 5 straight-up records. The Ravens didn’t just finish the season with a terrific straight-up record but they also finished the season with a fantastic sports betting against the spread record of 12 and 4. That’s easily the best record in the NFL, after the Tennessee Titans’ 13 and 3, against the BetUS online betting spread.
The Baltimore Ravens travel to Big D to take on the Cowboys in a game that both teams pretty much have to win. The Ravens had a chance to take away control of the AFC North from the Pittsburgh Steelers last Sunday but failed to do so. Now sports betting fans will be waiting eagerly to see if the Ravens can bounce back and beat the Cowboys on the road.
The Redskins and Ravens battle it out in a regional rivalry this Sunday night with the Redskins needing a victory in order to keep their playoff chances alive. The Baltimore Ravens are actually doing very well this year even though they are being led by a rookie quarterback, Joe Flacco. Flacco doesn’t play like a rookie. He’s no Matt Ryan but he’s no Akili Smith or Tim Couch either.
The Baltimore Ravens and New York Giants, two of the better defensive teams in the NFL, battle it out in what could be a high-scoring affair. Okay, maybe not. The Baltimore Ravens are winning like they always have – – because of their defense. Sports betting fans have to realize that before they can correctly assess how good this Ravens’ team is. Their straight-up record is fantastic at 6 and 3 but their record against the BetUS online betting spread is even better at 7 and 2. That against the spread record makes the Baltimore Ravens one of the best online betting options in the entire NFL.
The Baltimore Ravens travel to Miami where they will attempt to defend against the wildcat offense. Online NFL betting fans had better get to know the wildcat offense well. The Cleveland Browns actually used a version of it this past Monday to keep the Super Bowl defending champion New York Giants on their heels.
Both the Ravens and the Titans have gotten off to good starts this NFL season. The Ravens dropped a game just this past Monday night versus the Pittsburgh Steelers. It was a game that the Ravens should have probably won. Turnovers in the second half killed them in that one.
