Baltimore turned in a dud performance last week in dropping a 26-13 contest to the Tennessee Titans as 5.5-point road favorites, as the team was out-gained by 203 yards just a week after a convincing 35-7 home win over the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Lines for Week 3 in the NFL

Baltimore manhandled Pittsburgh last week in a 35-7 win as one-point home favorites and will now look to remain perfect in heading out the road. The Ravens defense recorded four sacks in the contest

NFL Lines for week 2

The Pittsburgh Steelers and Baltimore Ravens split both regular-season meetings a year ago, only to see the Steelers register a 31-24 win as 3.5-point home favorites in the AFC Divisional round

Florida Atlantic travels to The Swamp in Gainesville and will begin the final season under head coach Howard Schnellenberger, who began the program 13 years ago, taking it from obscurity into the major college football ranks

LSU is a dominating 20-4 all-time against current members of the Pac-12 Conference, which includes a 3-0 mark under Miles. Playing inside of a dome will likely factor little in the Tigers ability to come out with a victory, entering with a 22-7 all-time mark when indoors. LSU has won

The Baltimore Ravens won their last two preseason games both at home and seem ready for the regular season to begin. Bettors will be quick to point out that the squad has compiled a 1-2 ATS mark during exhibition

Washington has covered both of its preseason contests this year with a 16-7 home win over the Pittsburgh Steelers and 16-3 road victory over the Indianapolis Colts. The Redskins have fallen

Bettors are enjoying a unique opportunity to start playing around with the NFL Week 1 lines this year, even with many roster spots in doubt due to free agency starting this week. Professional bettors will continue moving these numbers around until the season kicks off with a premiere matchup

Kansas City was absolutely lifeless in a 25-0 home loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers last week, but it didn’t seem to bother head coach Todd Haley, who has failed to cover the spread in eight career preseason games. “You have to, as a head coach, look at the big picture all the time

Philadelphia is currently listed as a three-point home favorite over Baltimore for Thursday’s preseason opener and the total stands at 34. The Eagles have been the talk of the league due to aggressive free agent signings

The ongoing negotiations between the NFL owners and the Players Association to arrive at a new CBA (collective bargaining agreement) continue to point towards a resolution that could potentially end a four-month owner imposed lockout of the players and reopen the league for business as early as the end of this week

The 2011 Pro Bowl returns to Hawaii after being held in Miami, Florida last year. The annual contest of the AFC's and NFC's best will take place Sunday, Jan. 30, 2011, at 7 p.m. ET. This is only the second time in history that the Pro Bowl will be held the week

The Kidd went 4-0 last week, as he gave you Seattle +10, Ravens-3, Jets +2.5 and Green Bay under 46.5. This week is little harder as the rested home favorites seem

It’s really too bad that Baltimore has to go the Wild card route to get to the Super bowl this year. That late collapse against the Steelers cost them in that Sunday

Cincinnati finally played a good game last week now that it’s too late. Baltimore keeps rolling along, and don’t be surprised if they represent the AFC in the Superbowl. The Ravens will

Baltimore is playing very good December football, and looks like a team that wants to go very deep into the playoffs this year. Cleveland has been surprising people all year but

This really will be the best game of the week, if you exclude the 2 big division rivalries. The Saints have been on quite a tear recently and Baltimore is still winning although not paying perfect ball. We have a feeling in a spot

Let me start by saying that Baltimore is a better team than Pittsburgh. They are playing at a higher level every week, with more intensity. They have a better quarterback, a better

We still don’t feel that they are that good but this team continues to win and they continue to cover every week. We are talking about the

We hit on our 3 team tease last week .This week we are going with a 4 team, 13 point tease. Baltimore showed a lot of heart last week by coming back in that game at Atlanta

After going 5-3-1 last week our record stands at 49-32-3 for the year. The first Thursday night game of this year starts this week

Miami is very well coached and is in every game every week that is why the line is only 5 points. Maybe people are starting to find out

The Ravens played really hard last week, but no Cigar. Buffalo hasn’t played that badly so far this year. We are going to use this game as part of our 4 team 13 point teaser this week

Baltimore is very very good while New England is very very not quite as good. We see one of these teams maybe going to the Super bowl, and the other getting

Both of these teams found a way to win very tough games last week. We knew that Baltimore would find a way, but we didn’t know Denver

Another great week. We went 7-3 and hit on our big teaser bet. That makes it year to date, 27-14-1 and 3-1 on Teaser betting. We will start the week

This is one of my favorite games of the week. The Steelers have surprised everybody by going 3-0, without their quarterback while the Ravens

After a surprising Week 3 performance in which Wisconsin barely squeaked out a 20-19 win over Arizona State and needed a blocked extra point to do it, the Badgers get

We knew that Baltimore was going to beat the Jets last week; we were surprised however that Cincinnati wasn’t more prepared versus New England

The Jets and Rex Ryan are so full of hot air. Everybody has the Jets and Cowboys in the Superbowl this year. Neither will get there. People will never get it, that it’s not about individual talent

Of all the games this weekend, this is the one that is the toughest to figure out. The Ravens have been playing exceptional football as of late, and could go all the way. That being said, the Patriots have been playing terrible football the last few weeks but are still the Patriots

With emotions running high on both sides of the ball, one team (Florida) will benefit greatly. The other will suffer an embarrassing loss on New Year’s Day. Cincinnati is playing without former head coach Brian Kelly, who led the Bearcats to significant success in recent years

Now we’re talking. The Steelers proved last week that they are alive and well, and won’t give up their title without a fight. Baltimore has been playing the best football in the NFL as of late. Both of these teams need this one badly. Pittsburgh to make the playoffs and Baltimore to have an outside shot at the division

We really felt that Baltimore would play better Monday night at Green Bay last week but too many mistakes and penalties cost them the game. Joe Flacco has to stop thinking he is Joe Namath, start to play within himself as he did last year

There was no line at the time of the writing of this column because of the uncertain Pittsburgh QB situation. Charlie Batch is gone, and but it looks like “Indestructible Big Ben”, will play even with his head injury. He has proven before how hard his head is

Virginia coach Al Groh has beaten the Cavaliers’ arch rival Hokies just one time in his nine years at UVA. He and the Cavaliers look to make that number two and possibly avoid his firing this Saturday in Charlottesville. The Hokies are in a down year at 8-3 and will not contend for the ACC Championship,

Not quite the same allure as the Red River Rivalry between Texas and Oklahoma, but this week’s Bedlam Rivalry game is Oklahoma State’s Super Bowl. The Cowboys have had a tremendous season so far and Oklahoma is sitting at 6-5, ensured of its worst season since 1999

Boise State doesn’t play too many home games where they are only 14 point favorites, but that is exactly what they are this week when Nevada comes to play on the blue turf. Boise State needs a win this week, and badly. Though the Broncos are 11-0, their only hope for a BCS appearance

Despite an 11-0 record up to this point, Alabama still realistically needs to win its next two games to get into the National Championship. With Florida a perfect 11-0 as well, the Crimson Tide will need to beat Auburn this week and Florida in the SEC Championship

At first glance you might think that it was quite a shocker that Oakland beat Cincinnati last week, but at we said the Bengals were coming off their biggest win in years and might be flat. We also felt that Jamarcus Russell was hindering the Raider offense and the switch to anybody but he was the correct move

This is an interesting matchup. At first look you might ask how the Ravens are favored in this game, but when you look more closely at it, you will see why. If there is any defense that can possibly stop Peyton Manning, it would be Baltimore. The Colts are coming off of a really big win and might be a little flat. The Ravens were embarrassed

Both of these teams have problems. Miami really can’t play offense at the N.F.L. level. They look like a college or high school team at times, with their “Wildcat” offense and their quarterback who throws the ball like a shot put. Another quarterback, who has a funky delivery is Phillip Rivers

The next 2 games that we are picking, we are going a little bit out on a limb. There are 2 home dogs that both played very well last week as huge underdogs. Both teams had opportunities to win outright but didn’t.

Our 13 point teaser bet of the Week begins in Baltimore. We hit on most of our big teasers last week, but the one they we were worried about, and let us down was Cleveland.

The Redskins travel to Charm City in a rematch from last year’s 24-10 Baltimore victory, though neither team bears much resemblance to last season’s squads.

Stop thinking about rain by itself as a bad weather indicator. Look at the mix of wind, turf quality, and precipitation. It's the mix that matters, not one third of the mix.

Bettors no longer have to look at mere sides and/or game totals to strike it rich as mostly all the online sports books (and many Las Vegas) outlets provide first and second half wagering lines along with quarter by quarter prices too on football betting.
