    So why is Detroit underdog at Baltimore?

    Detroit clearly a superior team to Baltimore yet is getting 3 pts on road


    What's going on here?

    Detroit banged up might not have Montgomery or Gibbs at RB. They have other injuries too.

    Detroit isn't going to be favorites in Baltimore. At the same time -3 is high.

    NFL teams don't just continue to win and cover forever in the NFL... when a weird line gives you a heads up take notice

    want an example? the hottest team in the league the Niners going on the road against a team starting P.Walker... the Niners emptied the tank to blow out the Boys. guys get hurt... QB plays bad, a couple 4th q flags against your team or non-calls on the opponent and boom... Browns had the cover in hand all game and won on the missed field goal

    Horrible example Chico.

    That spread moved 7 points to 10/10.5 once Walker was announced. Only a moron would of bet the 49ers then. Every sharp or a person with half a brain knew Cleveland was the side.

    This game is nothing like that. Sorry you lost all your teasers on the 49ers but this game isn't even in the same zip code as that one

    I honestly wonder sometimes do any of you really even wager on games?

    if the Niners had MADE the field goal and won by 1... THEY DON'T COVER ANY ORIGINAL SPREAD

    what was I saying? NFL teams don't just continue to win and cover week after week for long in this league

    where the fuk was I talking about the spread after Watson was announced out????

    lions will now have a target on their backs and lamar jackson, harbaugh, and the entire ravens team will be ready for them.

    just a few short years ago, the ravens were considered super bowl contenders.

    they are a proud franchise.

    however, Lions a damn good squad this year.

    for me it is Lions +3 or no play.

    i am choosing No Play.

    This feels like the kind of game where the Lions get outcoached, not unlike the Seahawks game. Ravens defense will expose Goff.

    If you look at a spread that makes you scratch your head. For example if you're questioning "why a certain team is underdog (getting pts) in certain matchup you think they should be favorite" chances are theres good reason odds are what they are. Maybe dig little deeper or just take favorite in that case cause its prob less than 3 pt spread.

    You're right, they'd probably be better at lacrosse. Too late now, they're all football players til their contracts expire.
