Ravens - I'm having a hard time right now reading this team. Even though the defense has been playing great, they are only human. It may seem like they are still blowing fourth quarter leads, but if the offense would get a first down every now and then they would not wear down so much. Perfect example last week, justice hill runs a kick off to midfield realistically only needing 10 yards for justin tucker to kick a field goal and salt the game. Offense losses yards, punts, defense rests for zero time. Pitt drives right down the field for game winner. There seems to be so much turmoil, per the pundits anyway, they are ready to blow this team up. Lamar Jackson hasn't played in over a month and he is still getting blamed. Is he really that hurt, is he pissed, have we seen the last of him in a ravens uniform? I haven't studied too close the playoff seedings, but from what I read the ravens will be playing cinncy two weeks in a row, more than likely. Best bet on today's game is probably under 39.5. Ravens offense is not scoring, cinncy will probably rest their offensive stats in the second half. If I were in their shoes, I keep what's good (roquan smith), let go of the distraction ( jackson) , and start looking for a new qb1. In the meantime, sign a vet with a little fire, Derek Carr, to stay competitive and buy some time for the search of the new qb. While Jackson is one of the funnest players in the league to watch, I don6see the ravens ever getting past the first round of the playoffs.
I'll throw some official bets out later.
