The Ravens played well without Lewis,They won all four games he missed and that has put the team in the position they are in right now.But this is still a better football team with Lewis in the lineup.He gives them a truly elite presence in the middle on defense.There is a reason he is regarded as one of the greatest middle linebackers in NFL history.The Ravens were fortunate to win without him. Now, they will be much better for the final three games.The Ravens have won four in a row,and they have won their last three all by double digits.Their only losses are on the road this year,The road has been generally unkind to RB Ray Rice as well,and it seems as though the team goes with his success or failure. The back out of Rutgers only had one game with more than 50 yards on the ground before the game at the Cleveland Browns two weeks ago when he rumbled for a whopping 204 yards and a TD.He’s going against a rush defense that ranks No.24 in football this year,so he could be in for another big time day.After the game against the Chargers, the Ravens close with games against the Cleveland Browns and Cincinnati Bengals.None of those games are overly easy,but Baltimore is better than all three opponents.The Ravens have a better pass defense, have a better run defense and can bring more pressure on opposing quarterbacks also a top of the solid play they are getting from their corners,The Ravens are also extremely good at getting to quarterbacks,they have 45 sacks on the season,and Terrell Suggs is playing the best football of his career with 13 sacks by himself.The Ravens defense is the key to the game versus the Chargers,and the Ravens should feel confident with how they match up against the Chargers.With a healthy lineup, the Ravens should have no problem winning out and securing the best record in the AFC.Ravens By 7 or more points.My Bet Ravens-1 1/2 [5Dimes Sport Book] The game on Sunday night will come down to pass rush and pass protection.The San Diego Chargers have shown two weeks in a row now that they can put up points when Philip Rivers has time to throw.Whether or not he'll have that time SBR members,with Jared Gaither taking on Terrell Suggs (just the best of a big bag of tricks that Baltimore Defense Coordinator Chuck Pagano has to us),will be the biggest factor in determining if the Chargers can move the ball and score.This game is going to be a dogfight to the bitter end Sunday night.The Ravens will bring pressure on Rivers I’m sure, but I’m concerned about how our DBs will matchup against the Chargers receivers,especially Gates and Jackson with their size.The Ravens will need to stick with what has been working on offense,and that’s feeding teams a healthy serving of Rice.If Flacco has to throw 40+ times,the Ravens will be in trouble. Another factor is the travel to the West Coast.The last trip cross-country the Ravens lost against the Seahawks in a game they should have easily won.

Where and more importantly at what odds? I checked before betting mine and I saw numbers close to yours but only at +160.

i guess the 1 or 2 points isnt a big deal unless there is a close game out of the 3

Yeah yours is what I was looking for, but +172 isn't terrible with the Pats essentially -2.5

You got a bad number on the Cowboys and Pats. Put them both in a 6 point teaser and they should of been -1.

That's terrible, but I think you'll be fine even at -2.5
Good luck

Yeah I think so, which is why I think +172 is fine. I couldn't find ALL 3 below -3 at +180 when I made play. Heritage had the right lines for 6-points, but they only pay +160 on 3-teamer if it's all NFL Sides (+180 otherwise).

IDK I think the Saints should win, but just don't feel about it. I hope they do win, though. I have them in a couple of big teasers. Geux Saints!

You're right... that's also the one I have the least confidence in. But, since I'm playing them straight up, I figgered I might as well use them in the teaser.
