Baltimores defense looking amazing their 1st game at home. Flacco looked rilusty 1st qtr then brought it in.. this team is legit with their new weapons and having lamar Jackson as a wildcard addition to their offensive scheme make their offense no longer vanilla .But they played Baltimore and they are a very bad football team.
Now cinci also played a very bad football team in indy but did not dominate them the same way Baltimore did to The Bill's but still won a decisive victory for sure.

So the decision to bet either team has my head scratching. But I am leaning Baltimore as I believe they will control the division by seasons end barring injury.
This is a Divisional game...no love loss here folks.
No bet made but looking for discussion on both teams
Its Thursday Night Football
It's the Ravens at the Bengals

Im upset that baltimore smashed buffalo and are looking great going into this one(Almost too good). I really liked this game before week 1 even. Im still taking balty. ALWAYS fade the carrot top in primetime games. The guy just cant do it in primetime. He will choke hard again and balty will squeeze out a close one. GL

Dalton's "comeback" vs the Colts was pretty much 100% fueled by dumb Colt penalties on defense to keep drives going and the D wearing out and one very iffy pi call vs colts to get them inside the 10 and spark them in the 2h

colts also messed up being in fg range when up 6

then had another terrible series with dumb calls, d held bengals to fg to keep deficit at 4 (dalton couldn't salt away the win on the road vs a very average d even with all momentum)

then colts stalled their own game winning drive with stupid calls on 1st and 2nd down at midfield then doyle fumbled away a potential first down on 3rd and 15

Ravens want revenge for last year's 2nd meeting with the crazy 4th down pass to kill ravens and put bills in playoffs

it's ravens or no play in this game... easy

ps: Green got stripped twice by the Colts, the 2nd one being luckily recovered by his own team or else Colts would've been driving to win the game late down just ONE

[Easy-Rider 66]

Lean Ravens. Do not know if it matters but Cincy beat Balt last game of season 2017 to knock them out of playoffs.

[USCPHILLYGUY]

Careful here Harold. Let’s not underestimate how bad the Bills are. I took their win total UNDER 6 the 1st week it came out and I can’t see them winning 2 games this year. Flacco totally different monster on the road & this is a division game.

Jake you feeling ok? Not like you to troll a guy.

And what exactly is a square play

not trolling , just backing my opinion with facts and he made my point for me with an exclamation point behind it

this is the epitome of a square play

[Shutup]

Until Baltimore proves they are really good all the value is with Cincinnati. This isn't the Pats with a proven track record year after year of dominance where you can expect them to go on the road and win SU. Typical NFL bettors. They only see what is in front of them. A dominant(and against a brutally bad team) win makes them seem great therefore they will smoke Cinci. I will take the Bengals even though I am not a big fan of Daulton. I expect a close game. Wouldn't be shocked by either outcome. I'll take an average bet with the Bengals

Jake not bashing your opinion. Just two long time good people I hate seeing argue. Some of the other clowns here, I get it.

Good luck this week in fantasy. I’m working OT making roster moves much to the dismay of Fire!

a question was posed and I answered it, nothing more than that

I agree Harry is good people but would not follow his betting advice in the long run

I saw that you are burning the midnight oil and making moves, very scary WR group you have

Jake id love to talk a Mixon trade

[JAKEPEAVY21]

Jake id love to talk a Mixon trade

I'd consider Beckham or Jones for Mixon...not much interest in moving him unless I get a stud wr in return

other than that, McCoy is the RB I'm willing to deal

[Da Manster!]

love the pick, Harry...I've took the Ravens as well this week...a "nail it, pound it" play on my football thread....this is not an overreaction play...I've been following the Ravens very closely this year since I only live 30 minutes from Baltimore and 30 minutes from DC....Joe Flacco has been razor sharp in OTA's, minicamp, and preseason and you saw how he dismantled the Bills...He is playing with a chip on his shoulder as is the whole team...the Ravens organization was very bitter about how their season ended last year with an embarrassing loss to Cinci...Barring any major injuries, the Ravens just might be this year's "ride them all the way" team...

[JAKEPEAVY21]

I do like some of the additions at WR for Balt(Crabtree, Snead and Brown).

drafting Jackson probably lit a fire under Flacco as well...

Why so hung up on “sharp/square”? It really doesn’t matter, “square” plays cash as often as lose imo.

[2daBank]

I love ravens this year and think they win the division, that said this not a great spot to bet them. I hate Thursday nights anyways so prob will pass.. might start a teaser out w bungals+7 as I think this game be one possession either way.

Totally agree.....but Baltimore has to show me more than beating Buffalo.....

[Cincy Courier]

Even though I'm from Cincy,I am not a Bengals fan,my team resides out in the Paciific Northwest but anyways I'm going with Cincinnati here.Vastly improved O-line and imo a solid run defense which will result in an Interception or 2 for Flacco.I can see the Bengals coming up with a key turnover late in the game to seal the deal.I also like the fact that the Bengals opened up at a +3 and it quickly went to a pickem.Reminds me of the Auburn and Oregon National Championship game a few years ago where the Ducks opened up at -3 and 24 hours later they were +3...Like i said,not a Bengals fan here and hardly ever bet them but the vibe in this city this year for Marvin's one last chance shot,i'm taking Cincinnati.

it's in reference to another thread

agreed that square plays cash often as well

[chico2663]

As an 13 yr ex season ticket holder I am going with baltimore. The line scares the hell out of me because if they really think balt. wins the line should be 4 or 5. But I am going on how bad the red beebee gun is going. To the benefit of the bengals this is the best receiving group since 2013 when they had sunu,marvin jones jr and greisham to help a.j. I don't think their line is as good as it's been for awhile. Let us not forget how weellll or not the bungals play on national t.v. Dalton is like 5-19 on prime time while marvin is 8-31. For me it is a baltimore or no play

[chelseafantorres]

I really think Flacco was motivated this offseason by the Lamar Jackson pick and put in a ton of work and it showed in the first game. Granted, it was against a bad Bills team but I think there's value in people under evaluating Flacco. Sucks this game is on a Thursday because weird stuff happens on Thursdays but I like the Ravens
