Ravens -1

baltimore is FAR SUPERIOR TO KC   any and all daze

 

Baltimore - 1

I'm considering playing $25 on a prop for KC to win the AFC.

It's only $25... and if I win, I'll be banking.

Baltimore - 27                                   Kansas City - 17

Ravens -1.5                             over 41

Ravens offense will get it done today. Over in a Ravens playoff game  that's weird. Rice, Flacco & Boldin plus a Chief offense that scored 17 or more points in 10 games has the makings of an over. Ravens - New England next week

KC is a good team but to inexperienced.  It's like a deer in a headlight type of situaton for KC.  The gritty veteran Ravens Defense will force a couple of turnovers, which will be a game changer.  Ravens take this one by 10-14 pts.

Leaning Baltimore.  They've won their last two wild card playoff games on the road and they are stacked with veteran talent whose been in this position before.

RAVENS  CHEIFS

LIne is way off. . .

KC played only two playoff teams this year. My $$$$ is on Balt.

Filthy Ravens by 7 although I'd love to see the Chiefs beat them.

If the Saints/Seahawks line is 10.5 - shouldn't this game be about the same? The Chiefs showed me exactly what type of "playoff caliber" team they were last week.

People, don't buy into the "oh well, gosh darn shucks, we played soft and then we pulled our guys to rest up for the playoffs" routine.

I watched that game - there was no "soft play" or "letting up" until midway through the fourth when the game was pretty much decided - they just got schooled by the frickin' Raiders at home!

 Just look at this stat, and tell me what you think. Not just about the Chiefs, but, any team that loses to the Raiders twice, and - if not for the complete ineptitude of Josh McDaniels - should have lost to the Broncos - - TWICE!!! - - Should they have made the playoffs???

The answer is no. It should have been the Chargers winning the division and hosting this game and Matt Cassel should have been knee deep in supermodels right now. So, take the gift Vegas is giving you this week - you won't be sorry.....

Ravens -1.5 = = pound it........ HARD!!!!!!!!!!! HARDER THAN YOU'VE EVER POUNDED ANYTHING BEFORE!!!!!!!! WHEN YOU THINK YOU'VE POUNDED IT ENOUGH, POUND IT 5 MORE TIMES!!!!!!!!!

Wait until Saturday when people have been betting Baltimore to more than a FG (or more) favorite!

Hey Quadimodo, 

Line movement wont matter this week. Ravens will beat on the chiefs by 7 or more. ED REED'S Beard for the large!

I live in Baltimore and have a good feel for the Ravens. Their schedule was a lot tougher than KC's. We played the Steelers twice, the Falcons, Saints, Bucs and Patriots. They were in everyone of them. I don't think they were motivated in the last two games against the Browns and Bengals. But they will be highly motivated on Sunday. It's a playoff road game and they are dying for a rematch against the Patriots or Steelers. Take the Ravens -1.5 to -3.5.  They will win by at least 10.

Ravens

ravens shoulda beat the patriots.....but didn't.   why not???

they led 17-7

for the same reason they won't win this week.....

your offensive coordinator turns into a little box in the second half  of games instead of going for the knockout punch.

he is the worst. 

keep throwing those check downs to ray rice, Cam....see where that gets you.

their defense isn't great anymore men...you have to score points in this league if you wanna win.     Chiefs 19-16

Hey Jonfon, I was just trying to help. If you single the Ravens this weekend you should make money. The Chiefs got beat pretty soundly by the Raiders and they played to win I believe. Your right about the Patriots game. They punted twice in that game on forth and 1. The second time was in the forth quarter on forth and less than a yard. I think it was a half a yard. They gave the ball back to Brady one to many times in that game. I hate Cameron. But if they get back to the game plan they used in the Saints game which is to run Rice as much as possible and limit Flacco to 20 passes they should win easy. They get carried away with passing sometimes which end up leaving the defense on the field to long. I think the defense will also score in this one. Flacco does get on my nerves though. He has potential but has no pocket presence. At least 4 times in the Bengals game he let the pocket collapse on him. He's got to get out of there quicker and either run or throw the ball away. Also the coaching staff really doesn't allow him to do much like Ryan in Atlanta. You could tell when the Ravens played them. I think with their edge in experience will get the job done Sunday. I wouldn't take them against the Pats or Steelers next week but I'll cash in Sunday for sure!!

Good luck
