Week 7: 3-1 (+1.9 units)
Year to Date: 15-13-1 (+.5 units)
Baltimore Ravens (5-2) vs. Cleveland Browns (1-6)
Cleveland +8.5; O/U 4.5
Over 44.5 (-110)
Lamar Jackson has three starts against a Jim Schwartz defense, scoring 30, 28, and 31 points, respectively. The Ravens are averaging 35 PPG during their five-game win streak. Cleveland is now turning to Jameis Winston at quarterback after Deshaun Watson suffered a season-ending Achilles injury last week. I’m expecting somewhat of a boost to the offense with Winston, not to mention another week of practice for Nick Chubb. I’m on the Over in Cleveland for this AFC North matchup.
Kansas City Chiefs (6-0) vs. Las Vegas Raiders (2-5)
Las Vegas +9.5; O/U 41.5
Under 41.5 (-112)
Matt Nagy returned to Andy Reid’s coaching staff at the start of last year. Since then, the Under is 18-9. In divisional games, Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs average 20.2 PPG across six games. The Raiders are turning back to Gardner Minshew after Aidan O’Connell’s injury last week. In Minshew’s two starts without Adams, he completed 26 of 41 (63.4%) for 267 yards (6.5 YPA), one touchdown and two picks. I expect him and the Raiders offense to struggle against a top-5 defense in Kansas City.
Carolina Panthers (1-6) vs. Denver Broncos (4-3)
Denver -11; O/U 41
Denver -11 (-112)
Carolina has allowed 30+ in their last five, and in six of seven games this year. Now they will be without two veteran receivers in Diontae Johnson (ribs) and Adam Thielen (hamstring). Bryce Young is expected to start after Andy Dalton and his family were involved in a car accident this week; Dalton did not practice this week and is listed as doubtful. I’m not expecting Carolina to put up many points in this one. Back the Broncos in Mile High.
Dallas Cowboys (3-3) vs. San Francisco 49ers (3-4)
San Francisco -4; O/U 47
Dallas +4 (-110)
San Francisco is reeling on the offensive side of the ball, now without Brandon Aiyuk, Christian McCaffrey, and Jauan Jennings. Greg Kittle and Deebo Samuel are listed as questionable but likely will play. Mike McCarthy is 13-3-1 ATS coming off the bye, and Dak Prescott is 19-4 when he gets more than seven days in between games. I like the Cowboys to keep this within the number against the 49ers.
Outright Underdogs (.5 Units):
Week 7: 2-0 (+1.16 units)
Year to Date: 4-9 (-1.74 units)
Dallas @ San Francisco +164
Dallas has won their last four on the road. For the reasons mentioned above, I’ll take Dallas to pull the upset by the Bay.
