Ravens +6.5 at Detroit Looks to Good to be True

[NYSportsGuy210]

Defending Superbowl champs are fighting for the #6 seed and need to win tomorrow night at Detroit even more to stay ahead of the Miami Dolphins. Their offense has played better of late and they have Dennis Pitta back to go along with Marlon Brown and Torey Smith. Detroit plays sloppy and can turn the ball over offensively.....Ravens defense is physical. That is not a good combination.

I realize Detroit needs to win this game to stay ahead of Chicago to try and take the NFC North title and earn a playoff spot. I still think Baltimore comes in strong and takes it to the Lions....even if they don't beat Detroit.


Thoughts?
The Play for Monday Night Football: RAVENS + 6.5

may be some precipitation tomorrow night in Detroit looking for weather updates

[Jago2008]

70% chance of snow tomorrow night for Detroit.

They play in a dome... Are you implying the traffic will be bad?!

70% chance of snow tomorrow night for Detroit.

Well, in that case, give me the Lions since they've already played in a snow game.

Detroit -6.5

[matt1216]

The lions should win this big...

[d2bets]

Yep, traffic will keep the fans away.

[d2bets]

Seriously though, I'm baffled too. Teams seem pretty evenly matched. Seems like it should be painted 3, maybe shaded 3.5. 7 in some spots seems crazy.

Ravens +6.5 at Detroit Looks to Good to be True

I don't think this looks good at all... Detroit has a great chance to put up a big win here.

[MoneyLineDawg]

Detroit wins by double digits...Expect Lions D to get after Flacco and see a lot of mistakes

Lions in the Dome are tough

[bubblebuttluv]

First off, the Lions play in a dome and also Matt Elam was talking a lot of shit to Calvin Johnson earlier this week.

Elam called Johnson "Pretty old." and Johnson responded with ""I'm getting old. It's all good. I'll show him what that old man's strength is about, though."

I hope my Ravens win but it could get real ugly, real quick and the best wide receiver in the NFL, Calvin Johnson, could go off in a bigger way than he usually does every week

Hilarious post...some people. I lean Lions.

[SteveKerrsJunk]

I'm sure Stafford will F u k up as usual. Loving this play tomorrow.

Ravens or no play

[d2bets]

Ravens haven't lost by more than 6 points since Week 1 to Denver and they're hot winning 3 in a row and needing a win to keep pace with Miami. They've lost a lot of close games or they could easily be a 10-3 or 9-4 team here and it'd probably be a pk em game. I don't see laying -6.5 here but what do I know.

[slacker00]

Lions are sitting on a good teaser number. Otherwise, I'm mostly prop shopping on this one.

At what odds? If the 2-teamer is -120 then that's -280 per side, which is pretty much the same or worse than the ML. So what's the benefit? At -110, it's -260, but you can even get that at Bookmaker.

[Phatman36]

THE STAT: Matthew Stafford is 1-22 for his career during the regular season against teams that have finished the year with a winning record.

Think buying the half point to +7 and a small play on ML are worth a shot.

[Psycho792]

Ravens are +7 now. Teased half a point on that and also took det under 27.5. BOL

So loinesses turn the ball over 2 or 3x tonite

[vividjohn45]

Teasing the lions into lionesses wont help thier case either.

[vividjohn45]

Detriot has been fade for 7 weeks they shuld of wrapped up central tonite instead. They let tammpons get first win on them in bankrupt detroit. Instead they sit half game back. And whrn ravens win thry will be half game back of rogerless packitins. Lionesses so far.

[vividjohn45]

Only team with healthy starter. .5 game back. Lol. 1U on ravs. Plus 7.

[tony_come]

No play no play no play

[NardVa]

Both teams are suspect. May fade the Lions because I think a collaspe is coming and they miss the playoffs.

[WWCD]

Over for me is the safer bet.

[SportsMushroom]

balt ravens are horrible, not the same team that won the superbowl

thats why +6.5

Old man Johnson will get those 8 points in the first quarter.
