Bengals pass defense being ranked 30th in yards allowed is a little skewed in my opinion. Actually they are 27th by the way. QB's have only a 85.5 percent passer rating against our defense. They allow 253 yards a game through the air. Week 2 they allowed 261 yards to Rodgers because they were coming from behind and had to abandon the run. We allowed 276 yards to Roethlisdouche week 3 and we looked really bad in that game period but still won. Besides Schaub we haven't allowed a 300 yard passer all season and we allowed 392 yards that game. Mostly because we could not stop the screen pass. Which they were very underprepared that week. For one it was a short week, with the death of Zimmer's wife most went to the funeral that week. We literally couldn't stop the screen at all. Everytime they ran it they just seemed to dash our defense. By the way the Bengals are undefeated as a dog Joseph and Hall are very underrated corners. I think your making a big mistake laying 2.5 on the road. I don't know where you got 2.5 either, did you buy a point or?

Got 2.5 at 5 dimes for (-115). I'm pretty sure they are 30th, only Falcons and Titans are behind them. The Bengals offense is better than the Ravens offense without a doubt, but I think the Ravens are a very good team. Last time Benson had a great game and I don't think he will this week. I think the Ravens end up winning this game and at 2.5 I like it, I'm not saying that it is a lock by any means, but after analyzing this game I feel that the Ravens take it. I may be wrong who knows. Best of luck to you this weekend

Texans Summary:
The Texans offense has been hot the last few weeks. The last 3 games they are averaging 27.7 points a game and they come into Indy looking to continue their hot streak. This is a big game for this texans team, they are off to their best start in franchise history, but the Colts will be no easy task. Matt Schaub lost one of his biggest weapons this past week and he will be missed in this offense. The Colts have only faced one really good offense this season and they shut it down. The Colts do not have the greatest running defense and the Texans running game has been non-existent all season but looked good last week. I think that this Texans team will be good for at least 21 points on sunday. The Texans have the #3 ranked passing offense in the league and will make it very hard on this colts defense this weekend. On Defense the Texans will have their work cut out for them in stopping Pmoney. This texans team has a lot of good young players on defense, but they have had issue's this season in stopping the run, even though it has been good the last few weeks. This texans defense has holes in it, and I assure you that Mr.Manning will find them this weekend.

Colts Summary:
This week the Texans are in for some trouble, they are going up against the #1 ranked passing offense in Peyton Manning. The Texans are giving up on average of 21 points a game and I think Manning will keep the defense guessing in this one. The Texans will not be able to crowd the box, which will make the Colts running game effective. I wouldn't be surprised if the Colts don't punt the ball all game. Two weeks ago the Texans defense could not defend Vernon Davis, they allowed the same play 3 times for a TD, the same play!! I think that Dallas Clark will have a huge game in this one, then add in some of Manning's other weapons- Wayne,Collie,Garcon,Addai, and Brown. The Colts have had excellent pass protection on Manning all season, so he will have no problem having time to find his target. Manning missed some passes last week that he doesn't normally miss and the Colts still put up 18 points against the 49ers. The Colts always play well against the Texans and at home I think Manning has a field day with the texans. Colts put up at least 31 points in this one. On defense the Colts have allowed the least amount of points this season. They are going up against an explosive offense and will have issue's this week. The Colts could also put up some more points by forcing some fumbles in this one. The Colts have two fast ends who will be wrecking havoc on Schaub this weekend.
Summary
After watching a lot of footage from these teams and going through all of the stats I love the over in this one. The Colts win this game without a doubt, but the Texans are in uncharted territory for this franchise and I think they will keep this one a good game for most of this one. But in the end Peyton Manning will win this shootout and probably end up covering this one. The Colts have the #1 ranked passing offense and the Texans have the #3, The Texans have a questionable defense and I don't think that the Colts defense is as good as it is on paper.
Final Score Prediction: Colts 34/Texans 24

The_JB_Show- Well, Carolina has a great team, but they have played like crap this season. It's a short week for New Orleans and I think that Carolina will put up their best effort to hand the saints their first L of the season. But the saints have played great on all ends this season and it could easily be another blowout win for the saints. I am gonna lay off this game, but if I were going to play it, I would take Carloina +13.5 and a small play on the ML. Best of luck this weekend .

I guess I just don't see how you see value in that Ravens play at all? Did you watch the first game? If you did you would know that the Bengals dominated the game in all aspects.
Atlanta, Tennessee, St Louis, Minnesota, and Cleveland. I'm talking in terms of yards by the way, not yards per game. Which I think is skewed because of the Houston game.
The Bengals allow 7.3 yards a completion, there are several teams even in front of them, that allow more.
Tampa Bay 12th allows 8.7 yards. Baltimore 16th allows 7.5 yards. Miami 19th allows 8.2 yards.
Kansas City, Detroit, Oakland and Jacksonville all also allow more yards a completion than the Bengals do.
Completion percentage is 63.7 percent..
The point I'm trying to make to you now is, everyone still thinks that Baltimore has this vaunted defense. Its just not the case anymore. Our defense's are pretty damn even at this point. We are 1 spot below them in rushing yards allowed.
We allow 88 yards a game, they allow 87.6 a game. Just some notes for ya.
And you say the Bengals have the better offense right? Well then whats the problem, the Bengals are at home they are in First Place. They have beaten Baltimore in Baltimore already. They are catching 3 points at home. I just don't get the logic behind this play. Denver game shouldn't be a measuring stick for this game. Baltimore had 2 weeks to prepare for Denver, now we have 2 weeks to prepare for Baltimore...Just a thought. The line is 3 because Vegas keeps thinking that the Bengals are going to slip, but its just no the case. Good luck on your play, not trying to talk you out of it. Just trying to understand your logic behind the play. Because to me, its the Bengals or nothing here.

Watched the short cut from that game. I am picking the Ravens here because I think that Cincy is a bit over-rated. Baltimore does not have the same defense it used to. But they are still great at stopping the run, the issue with the Ravens has been giving up the big plays. I think that they have fixed some of the holes that they have had early on. They may not be the same without Leonard,Douglas,Scott and Rex Ryan. But they still are a good defense. Even though the Bengals had an extra week to prepare for this one, I think that the Ravens will get a lot of pressure on Palmer in this game and force some mistake's from him. I understand your reasoning behind your play, It does make sense. But I feel that the Ravens will get this game.

All i know is this week's game is gonna clear things up alot. If Cinncy can hang with BAL or even win then they are for real. Without the penalty calls and the last second TD in the last game it was a BAL win. I still feel BAL and PIT are the class of that division but things may change this week. Should be fun to watch.

I think the Ravens shut down Benson completely on sunday, and then the Ravens will dial up some blitzes and get to palmer. I think that the Ravens defense has more play makers on defense than the bengals have on their defense. The Ravens offense is one of the better units in the league this seasona and I think that the 2nd time around the Ravens will put up more than 14 points. I think that the Bengals played better in the first one, but I feel that the Ravens will learn from that game and win in Cincy. I am confident in this play, but I wouldn't be surpirsed if it lost because hell nothing is ever a lock in gambling. I am not trying to knock the Bengals, because I think Palmer has done a great job this season. But I wouldn't feel comfortable taking the Bengals +3 in this one. Best of luck this weekend .

Well it makes sense to me, thats why there are two side's :)...You are a great capper, I always read your threads. Not everyone is gonna agree on every game. I would be happy if the bengals win as long as in the end my plays are above .500. Best of luck this weekend .

Very true always two sides to an argument. .500 isn't a number I want to be at unless I have bigger plays connecting of course. I don't know how you bet though so I dunno. Good luck buddy..

Whodey...I read your posts all the time and respect your views on the games, but I can't see how you can say it makes no sense? I've read this thread and I think MrMet makes some good points. It doesn't mean that should change your opinion, but I think it's absurd to say that he's not making any sense!
