NFL Betting – Washington Redskins vs. Baltimore Ravens
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.
Sports betting fans didn’t expect the Baltimore Ravens to be this good this early. They are supposed to be rebuilding right now. Instead, Baltimore has gone 8 and 4 straight-up and 9 and 3 against the BetUS online betting spread. Their terrific record against the spread is close to what the New York Giants and Tennessee Titans have done this season.
The Washington Redskins have had a terrific season. They were chosen to finish last in the NFC East. That could still happen because the NFC East is loaded with good teams. Still, nobody expected Jim Zorn’s group to do what they’ve done so far this season. Washington has gone 7 and 5 straight-up and 5-6-1 against the BetUS online betting spread. They must win this game in order to keep off some of the other NFC playoff contenders nipping at their heels.
Here are the BetUS online sportsbook betting odds for this game.
Washington Redskins + 5 – 110 + 190 O 35 ½ – 110
Baltimore Ravens – 5 – 110 – 230 U 35 ½ – 110
Here are a few online wagering trends that might help us find a good online bet in this game.
The Washington Redskins are 1-5-1 against the spread in their last 7 games overall.
The Under is 7-0-1 in the Washington Redskins last 8 games.
The Baltimore Ravens are 6 and 1 against the spread in their last 7 games on grass.
The Over is 6-0-1 in the Baltimore Ravens last 7 games overall.
This game is going to come down to which team wants it more. Although the trends point towards the Ravens not only winning this game straight-up but also covering the BetUS online sportsbook football betting spread, I’m going to go the opposite way and side with the Washington Redskins.
Oh, not with the points, mind you, that would be too easy. Nope. I’m going to go ahead and put money on the Redskins to win straight-up on the BetUS online NFL betting money-line at + 190.
The Washington Redskins are almost a 2 to 1 underdog in this game. I can’t pass up the chance to make some serious cash on a team that I believe will cause the opposing quarterback fits. I expect that Redskins’ defense to really hammer Joe Flacco.
Redskins vs. Ravens Sunday Night Prediction:
To me it’s worth a shot. I’ll be making an online bet on the Washington Redskins to beat the Baltimore Ravens straight-up at + 190 in the BetUS online sportsbook.
