Broncos vs Ravens Predictions
The spread in this matchup initially caught my attention, but what really stood out was the Broncos' team total, set at 16.5 (some books have it at 17.5, but BetOnline offers the best line). Denver is up against a defense that ranks as the seventh worst in points allowed per game, averaging 26.1. While they've been slightly better at home, giving up 19.7 points per game, they still allow a staggering 291.4 air yards per game, the worst in the NFL. Baltimore's defense has conceded over this total in seven of their eight games this season, and they've allowed 17+ points in four consecutive games.
On the flip side, Denver's offense has been on a roll, scoring 28+ points in back-to-back games and exceeding this total in five of their eight outings. They've managed to do so in three of their four road games, averaging 22 points per game away from home—better than their home performance. While they're not the most explosive team through the air, ranking sixth worst in passing yards per game, facing the NFL's worst pass defense could help any average offense shine.
I prefer to steer clear of the spread here. I believe Denver's defense can keep the game within ten points, but I'm not willing to take that risk. Given the struggles of the Ravens' defense, I find the team total to be a more promising angle in this matchup.
Prediction: Ravens Win & Broncos cover
Best Bet: Broncos Team Total Over 16.5 (-150) on BetOnline
