Point/Counterpoint: Ravens vs Chiefs NFL Picks & Game Predictions
This Sunday everyone should be excited about the matchup between the Ravens and Chiefs. Doug Upstone and Swinging Johnson discuss their NFL picks.
It’s Week 3 of the NFL and also among the games is at the AFC with just two unbeatens, both Baltimore and Kansas City. While there will be ample discussion regarding the Chiefs being a 6.5-point favorite for their home , there’s another aspect to the competition, the entire.
The NFL chances opening launch was 51.5 and that shot up almost instantly to 55.
As is true with Swinging Johnson and SBR writers Doug Upstone , they ae two individuals who see the glass as – Half Full or Half Empty – and discuss their ideas.
Doug Upstone: Mr. Swinger,” Mr. Johnson, everything you prefer, you got the best of me last week with an astute Arizona selection. The pigskin threw all but couldn’t score points for what might have been a massive upset.
This gives me you , making me happy as Drew Brees in the moment and Ben Roethlisberger my first setback of the football season.
I found it curious that sportsbooks introduced this total and those NFL football and pound it. Around the Over, 95 percentage of stakes placed are at last look on Tuesday. You agree?
Swinging Johnson: Interested Doug, how kind of you to admit my handicapping prowess. In predicting the Cardinals covering as 13-point street hounds within the Dirty 24, yes, I had been nothing short of magnificent last week. We could dwell on that just a bit?
Alright then, sufficient tapping me on the back (true confession- it is not enough), let us discuss the complete, or over/under since the newbies state, in what should be a litmus test for the Ravens.
This game will establish whether they are the beneficiaries of needing their time to start, or if they are really, a bona fide force. I’m partial but that’s neither here nor there as we are focusing our lonely eyes on the combined points scored in this contest that’s sitting not pretty at 55 if you are inclined to go over the posted total.
Sure, it is a whole good deal of things, but you’re a whole lot of girl and you do not hear me complaining. And dammit, I will not whine here because KC is gont get theirs against a Ravens’ defense which is as stout as they appeared contrary to the Miami and Arizona offenses which are frankly — offensive!
Mahomes is currently going to shred this secondary as readily as I chased my Achilles when attempting a reverse osmosis kick at my nephew’s wedding in which I landed at the punch bowlwith tears streaming down my lips and a look of desperation in my eyes. It was sad indeed, heading from Bruce Lee into Peggy Lee in the blink of an eye. As I am wont to do, However, I digress.
In addition to it appears like Shady McCoy is going to be satisfied up after an MRI on his ankle demonstrated that the words – Week 3 TD’s!
Inform me Doug, why is it that you think a offense like the Chiefs will succumb to some defense like the Ravens? Oh, and there is a fella by the name of Lamar Jackson which might like to get a 33, if you are likely to opine that the Ravens won’t score then.
DU: Swinger, allow me to send you some Lamar Jackson matching jersey because your obsession might need a phone to cool you off collection in my Amazon Prime account from Baltimore and Louisville.
Have to say Swinger, I do not share your view the Ravens are an average defense. They got younger and faster in the procedure, although they did make modifications letting go of some veteran players.
No question broker Gabe Gabriel’s brand new customer (State Farm advertisements ), Mahomes, is still an unbelievable talent who drops bombs perfectly into receivers waiting hands, but he is not perfect.
His defensive team and coach John Harbaugh will soon heat Mahomes up and with a couple backups playing wide receiver, they will find out the difference between the Oakland also the only and secondary that Ravens have.
Let’s also not forget the match in the site of last’s year. Kansas City won 27-24 and the amount that was closing was 48. An alteration of three factors trading your superhero to Joe Flacco is sensible. But 48 to 55 gain in the amount is SJ.
SJ: Amazon Prime you state? Why Doug, you never told me you’re a person of ways. Alright, so send me that the LJ equipment and I will buy you a snow cone.
But return to if the Ravens can score over the Chiefs, let’s not forget that playing at Arrowhead is the graveyard of offenses. Lamar Jackson includes a toy that year wasn’t possessed by him and his title will be pick Marquise Brown. The kid has two excursions into the end zone over the first two games of his NFL career and the accession of Miles Boykin out of Notre Dame can help Jackson too in the assault.
The Chiefs have allowed an average of 18 factors like the Jaguars and notably the Raiders to crimes that were lackluster. Jackson and his band of Ravens must be great for at least a touchdown longer so the Chiefs will have to score more than 25 points. Now you are hovering around 50, and while you do create a salient point about the past season’s game and the corresponding complete, I must trust this one goes far higher using a Chiefs 38 — Ravens 27 score a fair projection.
DU: 65 points! Holy Mahome! Allow me to put a little cool discussion on you. For all the hoopla around K.C, under Andy Reid, they are 15-6 Under at home after two or more successive wins against the spread. This is followed up by the Ravens at 13-3 Beneath after gaining 375 or even more total yards in games.
SJ: Great cloth Doug, but I do not care, my head is made up. What I’m looking forward to is evening up the string slate and I’ll be thinking of you while I’m sipping on a glass of Cristal and dining on a delicate foie gras, paid for entirely my 5Dimes, Bookmaker and BetOnline accounts in your expense. Until next week, monsieur!
DU: Yes Swinger and that I hope you win all of your NFL picks this weekend except for you. I believe I am and if I am right, I’ll find an autograph six-pack Keystone Light delivered to you by Keith Stone.
