Today's rundown:
Ravens vs Bucs TNF thoughts 🏈
A surprisingly solid matchup 👏
Poor, poor Raiders 🤦♂️
Quick Hits: Some slaps and jump scares
Lamar Jackson had quite the game in the Raven’s comeback win against the Bucs.
In the second half alone, Jackson had 94 passing yards, 2 passing touchdowns, 4 carries, and 42 rushing yards.
We all know Baltimore has terrible defense, just as bad a passing game, while ranked 11th in offense, so big ups to Lamar for being able to carry that team to a win.
As for the Bucs, scoring 22 or less has been a common theme for them. They couldn’t even score more than 22 points on the Panthers, Steelers, Falcons, or Packers so this was just another L to tack onto their losing streak.
I see this as one of the more even matchups this week even though their records don't indicate that.
Both teams are very similar in almost every statistical category.
Minnesota's defense has been pretty stout this season, allowing 24% less points than league average.
And ever since that Eagles spanking, Vikings have looked decent. At the same time, look at who they’ve played: Lions, Saints, Bears, and Dolphins.
The only thing that scares me is the injury reports coming out of Arizona. A lot of key players either had limited participation or did not practice. Even though they look to be pretty banged up, I will take them at their current line.
The Cardinals also are away this game and they’ve already been 2-1 against the spread on road games this season. So, I feel solid about this one.
The Line (via PointsBet): Cardinals +3.5 (-110, -105) O/U: 49 (-107, both ways) Cardinals ML +160, Vikings -190

Poor, poor Raiders. They are top 10 in scoring and yet have such a shit record.
This week the Raiders will be facing a defense that ranks 31st in points allowed. I think they’ll score at will this weekend against this 17th ranked defense.
They do still have a top 10 defense so should be able to stop any offensive attack.
Never have and never will trust the red rocket Andy Dalton. Definitely got the Raiders here.
The Line (via PointsBet): Raiders -1 (-107, both ways) O/U: 49 (-110/-105) Raiders ML -115, Saints +100

Alright so neither team has amazing stats.
And let’s not even talk about Seattle's redzone game. One word: Atrocious.
Comparing the two teams, the Giants do stand out to me on the defensive end. They only allow just over 18 points per game.
They should pound the rock on the ground and eat up this 31st ranked defense in the Seahawks.
The Giants are 6-1 against the spread this season and when they’re at least +3 point underdogs this season, they are covering over 85% of the time.
The Line (Via PointsBet): Giants +3 (-107, both ways) O/U: 44.5 (-107 both ways) Giants ML +135, Seahawks -160
