These two QB's go back with Flacco up 2-1 in wins and an 81 to 50 point margin. Ravens aren't worried about playing in Foxboro, have fared well there and will believe they can win, Close game. Don't think Pats will cover

patriots

Baltimore money line.

Ravens +7 

Early bet has to be: tease NE -1 Over 41 Or Baltimore +13 over 41. Which do you guys think is the wiser choice?

The quality of play and the quality of coaching in this weeks wildcard games was so poor I'm having a difficult time handicapping this week games. I might have to flip a coin. Carolina, Arizona, Detroit, Dallas, Indianapolis, Cincinnati omg how did these teams make it into the playoffs And you have the Eagles, Niners and Chiefs sitting home  I actually had the side on each one of these games and aside from the Baltimore game I feel I should have lost the 3 others. I' m locked in on the Cowboys simply because there is no way I'm going to watch this team somehow win this fiasco of a game, and not be there to collect money on it.

I put when and not win. Dumbass 

A full touchdown? Hmmmm. Ravens +7.

Look for the Ravens to cover this game

Giving the Ravens +7.5 is a gift for bettors out there. Look for the Ravens to win outright and to easily cover. All over BAL +7.5    

You're not from Baltimore are you?

Way too high a spread for this game. Balt. is better on the road in the playoffs, take the generous 7 and throw in the over and bet them with confidence  - GL  - THE Myth

IMHO, I think we all know Vegas is not usually very generous in the NFL 2nd round playoffs.  There are multiple reasons the spread is 7 I'm sure.......  Having said that, NE just cant get there every year can they ?!?!  I have this weird gut feeling that BALT wins, goes to DEN and gets their payback from that fiasco 2 yrs ago up in them hills (ok, big hills...lol)  DEN wins AFC......  DAL beats GB (somehow??) and unbelievably CAR puts the ground game & D on SEA to miracle out a W.  CAR goes to DAL for NFC title & runs out of steam there.  DAL vs DEN Super Bowl & DAL becomes relevant again for a couple years.  Just like Dirk & MAVS, when you least expected the run, here it may be for Romo & BOYS.  I'm a DAL homer, but.....who thought in a MILLION years, with that FKN schedule they gave us losers, that we would be anywhere near 12-4.....WHO??  And that flag being picked up late was the CLUE everyone needed to recognize that my FANTASY just could happen.  Just saying, it's the 21st century NFL.....whooo boy.  Hope that was entertaining, remember you heard it hear 1st.   BOLTA   

pats by 2 scores

you know what is tripping me out about this game, is they scheduled it for the first game of the weekend, Saturday afternoon, which is when the crap games are scheduled. Probably because the Pats are unstoppable right now and they are going to humiliate Baltimore. Easy cover. ITS A LOCK.

NE+ Low those Wide Receiver will get shut down by Revis and Browner then who will Flacco throw to???

Gronk has never been healthy for this game, Ray Lewis and Ed Reed was just as smart as Tom Brady that's why always gave him problems, although they defense still respectful, Patriots should win this easy

New England - 27                                       Baltimore - 17

Patriots -7                                                under 48

Patriots - Under 

Ravens !  

      Talk about a contrast in styles of play. The Patriots are finesse all the way, while the Ravens try to bludgeon their opponents. The game hinges on which team can force its' game approach on the other. If Baltimore's pass rush disrupts Brady's timing, the Ravens will win. If the Pats can force Flacco out of the pocket and make him throw on the run, the Patriots will win. As I see it, New England will move on, but fall a bit short of covering, most likely by a FG.

BALTIMORE    +   7

 

The Ravens are coming!  The Ravens won 2 playoff games in NE and probably should have won the other.  The Ravens won the SB 2 yrs ago.  Ray Lewis retire last yr and Ed Reed left also so they had a down yr last yr.  It took them a yr to regroup with the replacements.  The Ravens woke up last wk in PIT and ready for a run for the SB.  The Ravens are big and nasty and should impose their will on the PATS.  The Ravens should win this game outright or at least cover.  In fact the Ravens are probably the only team that can match SEA's physicality and win the SB.  Flaaco is very good in the playoffs and Steve Smith is very physical.

The Ravens wore out Pitts defense , that's because Pitt was without a consistant running game. Yes the Ravens have a top shelf defense but can it stop Brady ( if Brady has enough time to throw ) . Balty plus the 7 looks like a good bet but the over seems safer. Luck is the intangible in this one and whoever takes advantage of the others misfortune will win. No leg catches in this one or bad ref calls -- the hell with safe -- the Pats win outright -- barely--- only because Balty gets behind and creates a lot of errors ( not a comeback team ) still loving the over tho ..... good luck

Why are all the football analysts hyping up the Ravens now because of what they did in the past.. when they picked the Bell-less Steelers to beat them just last week? they should be on their knees licking Tom Brady's balls and saying how New England should dominate this game. I mean they have a healthy Gronkowski now who didn't play in the AFC Championship game 2 years ago and their secondary was kind of a joke then but now they got Darrell Revis and Brandon Browner in the backfield. This is a completely different ball game. 

the analysts still are on Brady's ballsac though, almost everyone is picking the Pat's to move on to their 4th consecutive AFC Championship game. Then it should be a lock that Brady finally gets his fourth Lombardi trophy tieing his idol Joe Montana and becomes the Golden Boy once more against the improbable Dallas Cowboys in the Super Bowl, a matchup of two former dynasties from the last two decades. BIG ratings, TV big wigs are happy. NFL is happier and fatter. Everyone's happy. THE END.

but seriously this should be a good game and I think will be a defensive battle. it is going to be very cold in Foxboro. I like the Under in this matchup.
