Ravens +1.0.
Personally, the only situation I wouldn't take the Redskins is if the line were to move above -3. Right now it's -2.5. This by no means a sure pick, but I'm confidant Washington will pull this out. Not because of last week's loss to the Steelers. But if you've watched and followed the Ravens this season like I have, you'll notice that they simply are NOT the same team that they used to be in the past. The defense can't stop the run and the secondary is suffering without Webb. Ngata hasn't been the same force he was last year. Suggs (if he even plays), who knows how effective he'll be with the torn bicep.
To me, this a lot of red flags for Baltimore. They've played horrible for three week in a row, and in finally caught up to them last week. The Redskins however have been rolling, winning three straight. Washington's offense matches up so well against that banged up Ravens defense.
Now unless the Redskins play defense like they did last week against the Giants, Flacco could have a very good game as well. So far this year he has under preformed on the road, to say the least. But this is a secondary that has given up a lot of yards and big plays. Maybe the Redskins have turned a new leaf, but not likely. Expect this game to go down to the last possession.
My guess
Redskins 30
Ravens 27
This is something VUE would write. Flacco doesn't know what a huge game is. He's pathetic period ! I wouldn't trust Flacco with your first born child.
