Hey everyone, this is one of the picks I received from my handicapper. Figured I would share it with everyone. I am going to release the other ones after the games start, just to be fair since I am a paying customer. Good Luck!
Pick Bengals +8.5 1 Unit .
My Spread: 4.5. When I first saw this spread open up I was stunned by how high it was set. Even more surprising is the fact that it has had an upward trend all week. You will most likely find this at 8.5, but some Vegas casinos have it as high as 9.5. We all know there is no such thing as a "lock" and this is no exception. However, I believe if this game were played 10 times the Bengals would cover 9 of them. The only game this season that they failed to keep the score within 1 TD was against the Steelers, and they still beat them outright. They have been notorious for slow starts so I would not be surprised to see the Ravens cover the 1st half, but they have also been known for strong finishes. The Bengals have put up 30 points in the fourth quarter so far this season. I have talked to a lot of cappers who are going with the Ravens because they think they are going to play hard because of a tough loss last week. I could not imagine making a decision based on such analysis. I am sure that did not sit well in the Ravens locker room, but to think that professional football players give anything less than 100% every Sunday is ludicrous. It also does not take a mathematician to understand that when it comes to this there is no such thing as 110%. Both teams are going to play to the best of their ability, which should result in a close ball game based on my analysis.
