    Default B. More Ravens -3 vs Da Bronx

    I hate betting against my own team, but I really see the Ravens ending Denver undefeated streak here. The Ravens will be the 2nd complete team the Broncos will be facing this season, a team that is Good both on Defense and Offense. The 1st team being the Patriots. I still think the Patriots would of won that game if Brady wasn't so off. The Ravens are desperate, but unlike the Chargers they will have a defense that is capable of shutting down the Broncos offense.

    This will be Orton's toughest road test yet. He probably won't be aided by 14 points of special teams play this time around. I see him struggling against this stout Ravens D on the road, and should struggle to produce points. If I had to make it a play would definately be the Ravens -3 or a low scoring affair at u41.5

    I'm a Bronco fan myself and I see this game (possibly) going into overtime.

    I've been betting against my team for years, the Raiders! Not the typical fanatic so it's easy especially when they are an absolute embarrassment and I've given up on the season. Love the Ravens with the points, not so sure about a win though but possible

    these two are evenly matched. Home field may play a role in the outcome.

    i actually like denver in this spot--even though both teams are coming off the bye week i think the ravens defense is missing too many key parts this year and although they are better than most they aren't the same. I didn't drop any cash yet but they are on my lean list.

    you're under estimating our team
    ravens D isn't so stout
    I think people put to much on 'desperate' teams, broncos are just as hungry don't worry and don't play aginst them
    Denver's impressive pass rush & legendary backfield will contain them
    and denver has too many weapons that can chug downfield

    and if eddie didn't score those two tds denver woulda had the ball two more times and the chargers wouldn't of had the ball as much

    I live in Colorado and watch every Denver game. The Broncos just have that special something in them. They are dangerous and giving them 3.5+ is crazy. Chargers were suppose to beat the Broncos coming off a bye, on prime time, at home and you know how that one turned out. Ravens defense can't hang with the Broncos while the Broncos D can hang with anyone.
    Take Denver 3.5+

    Well one things certain, this team isn't going 16-0. If they're going to lose, it's more likely going to be by the hands of a desperate good opponent on the road. Baltimore has 3 loss against the NFL elites, that were all winnable for them.

    New England, Minnesota, Cincinnati. They could of easily won all three, but they're not getting the lucky bounces and misses Denver has been fortuitous in getting so far. Their 3-3 record is very deceptive, just as Denver's 6-0 record is!

    You can't really compare last week desperate team to this week desperate team. The Chargers doesn't have the same kind of D as Baltimore, and I doubt Denver will be getting 14 easy points off of special teams today.

    you make very good points..because this team beat sd doesnt neccesarily mean they'll beat Balt. Looking at the line it appears to me that vegas wants people on Denver.

    Fact: Baltimore running back Ray Rice leads the NFL with a total of 127.7 average yards from scrimmage. And they have a preetty good QB as well. The Raven's Defense is not the same D as the past Raven's teams though. On the other Side with Denver they have a good Defense. Can Kyle get it done on Offense?
    Where the early action is: 52 percent - Broncos There were loads of bets that came in on this game early this week. The pointspread is solid and hasn’t moved.
    Tough one to call here.
    I'm leaning Ravens at home.

    broncos needed a KR and PR for scores to win that game in SD, tho its entertaining, that is not how you want your team to win.

    they also have had a lot of things go there way in other games as well. There is no doubt this is the cinderella team for 09. Dangerous to bet against them but the shoe will fall off today.

    And I sincerely hope it does because I dont want my bengals playing the ravens with 4 losses in a row.

    Wow, luckily the under hit. Don't understand why Denver was still trying to score late. I'm expecting Pittsburgh the game to be the same next week.
