Ravens last-in-the-league pass defense vs Broncos mediocre pass offense.
Broncos passing game seems to be improving, so maybe that can continue.
But like you said, the defense will have to come to play because the Ravens put up yards and points. [Reply]
Bo getting some easy defenses last month. Now he gets a Ravens pass defense that is by far the worst in the league. They allow 20 more passing YPG than the 31st ranked pass D :-) [Reply]

Are the any major injuries to that defense now compared to week 1? [Reply]
Donks a 9.5 dog....Vegas views their offense like I do. That is a hefty spread. They obviously dont respect their 5-3 record....which was against MASH units and bottom-feeders.
I'll be an interesting game...likely play out like the Chargers....Ravens get up then coast. [Reply]

Hmm...wonder if playing the 3 worst defenses in football might have something to do with it.
Looks like the Doinks are now 10.5 dogs...has a 5-3 team ever had a spread like that playing another 5-3 team? One that didn't suffer major injuries the week before? I mean NFL.com has the Broncos as 11 in their power rankings...
Lamar is one of the best against the blitz...VJ blitzes almost 50% of the time. That shit works if you are playing back-up QBs without a lot of practice time....didnt work against Herbert. Chargers controlled that game... [Reply]
