I guess I'm not the only one who loves the Ravens, as they're already at 7.5 (or higher) pretty much everywhere. I'd consider middling, but honestly, I think the most likely scenario is that the Ravens blow them out. The Texans are down two of their most important players this week (one for the season). Schaub did impress me in his performance this past week while without Andre Johnson, but the Raiders are MUCH worse on defense than the Ravens. I don't think he'll have nearly the same success this week.
Foster is a scary dude, but without Andre to stretch the field, I'd be pretty surprised if the Ravens don't stack the box against him. They have been pretty vulnerable to the power run game, but don't let up big plays at all on the ground. Only one run has gone for more than 16 yards this year (23 yards), and they've got a ridiculous ypc rate of 3.2. Point is, sure Foster looked like his old self last week, but he's going to have to seriously work for his yardage. And I could see the Texans in a lot of 3rd and 4-6 situations. They will have serious trouble on all of them.
On the other side of the ball, they just lost their best defensive player in Mario Williams and I don't think they'll have much success pressuring Flacco, who can be REALLY good when given time. And I don't see them having much success stopping Rice, who is the motor that makes this offensive go. The Texans LB corps is just not that good when you get past Williams, and they've already been allowing 4.8 ypc! Rice could be in for a VERY big day. Very excited to see what he'll do for my fantasy teams. The Houston CBs are pretty solid, but the Ravens have no problems throwing underneath. If they line up with Evans and Smith split out across from each other, and Boldin in the slot, you could send Evans and Smith on go routes (who are both legit enough options to warrant serious coverage), the whole underneath area will be wide open for Boldin or Rice (or Dickson). I just don't see how the Texans can stop them without getting serious pressure on Flacco. And I don't see how they get pressure on Flacco.
This should be a blow out. If I didn't already have them at 6.5, I'd take them at 7 or even 7.5. By far my favorite play of the week.
Sorry if I meandered a bit in my thoughts. I'd love to discuss further if you disagree or have something to add.

Like the Rams, Jags & Miami so far............all pathetic teams but I like them.................
You seriously like the dogs, huh? I see nope hope for the Rams right now. They just lost their best CB for the year in a bye week practice. They already were kind of awful in their secondary, and now they've gone from awful to unacceptable. I literally don't see them being able to stop Rodgers from scoring a TD on every single drive barring dropped balls (looking at you Jermichael). I'd say maybe they have a hope of a backdoor cover after they sit Rodgers with a 30 point lead, but I Flynn is good enough to take them down himself. The more I look at this game, the more I like the Pack. They'll be in every teaser I even consider this week.
Yeah, I'm just making Packers -14.5 official now.
Jags have hope of keeping it close just on the defensive end, but honestly, this could just as easily get out of hand. As I said above, I'm just passing on this one.
Miami is definitely a live dog this week just because they're in division with the Jets and play them very hard. That being said, I just don't think I'm putting my money on this team, even if I do think the Jets suck.

lol...good luck, bud. I don't understand that play. I'd love to hear why you like them though.
There are 2 systems alone favoring the Rams & one of them is in Bigniners thread. I like betting with good systems but not solely blindly betting them either. I will continue to look at this game through out the week & if I dont feel comfy come game time, I can buy out of it.
I tend to pull the trigger early when I like something & sometimes I 2nd guess myself. Like pulling the trigger on the Lions early last week & 2nd guessed myself mid day yesterday but left it go & kept my Lions bets.

Jets are a sorry and humiliated team as of now, they might deal Dolphins as a scapegoat on national TV. Dolphins are very vulnerable on the passing defense that Sanchez could exploit. Jets need this national spotlight to save face for Rex Ryan.

no bro, keep breaking it down. you seem to see this playing out the same exact way i do in terms of the ravens offensive production. have you heard any updates on weather lee evans will be back for this game? he he's back and flacco has 2 vertical threats to complement boldin, then this offense start to become deadly. i see the ravens O line physically dominating this game, especially when you have a very mediocre nose tackle in the texans cody.

This is from rotoworld about Lee Evans:
Lee Evans (ankle) was noncommittal Monday about his Week 6 status, but does say his ankle is feeling "much better" after the Ravens' Week 5 bye.
Evans was able to run routes, do sprints, and practice "more extensively" Monday than he has in awhile. "It feels better but tomorrow might be a different story," he conceded. "I think we're on the right path. The goal is to play without being hampered." In fantasy, Evans will have to show he can play a full game before being worth a WR3 start. The Ravens host the Texans in Week 6.
Personally, from what I'm hearing about him, it's looking like he'll be active and probably play like 20 snaps. There's no need to force him to play too much with Smith there.
It'll definitely be interesting to see how they use two vertical threats with Flacco's big arm.
I just don't think their pass rush gets past not having Williams there. The only other Texans player who would be at all scary for Flacco is Antonio Smith, but a very average unit can handle a pass rush with him as their best guy. Flacco should have all the time in the world. And Rice should either have a lot of easy underneath passes because they feel the need to blitz or plenty of running room when they are forced into nickel packages.

does miami have a q.b.? im lookin at the under 42.5 in this one.
I dunno about the under. Both teams seem to have a good reason to throw a lot in this one. Miami's secondary is a sieve, and because of that they will likely be playing from behind. Moore has a decent arm, and Brandon Marshall is an absolute beast. Honestly, Moore could be an improvement on Henne's performance this year. Also, I could see some short fields or D/ST scores in this one.

i agree. i think evans will play limited snaps to throw off the secondary when ravens line up 3 wide.
