We are favored by a bunch over the Ravens - seems odd to me since we have not beat much. Are the Ravens that bad? Is home field that valuable? We don't usually play well on national TV so I'll be happy with a win.

They are only 1-5 and every one of their games this year has been relatively close.

Broncos L 13-19
Raiders L 33-37
Bengals L 24-28
Steelers W 23-20
Browns L 30-33
Niners L 20-25

Sounds to me that the Ravens plus 7.5 points is a good bet.

we should win that game by two touchdowns, easy. The Ravens aren't good, we're at home and should be steaming mad coming into the game.

I'd take BAL +7.5. We don't have a good track record on MNF and I think AZ is historically horrible ATS in those games, although they're 4-2 this season ATS.

Following history is dumb. This franchise has changed.

Last season, we were favored against SD on MNF and nearly choked, but won by a point.

When's the last time you watched this team and were impressed about how it came out and convincingly won a MNF game?

I'd be willing to bet it ends up at -6 before kickoff

Well that would mean a lot of $ being bet on Baltimore, but I don;t know if that's a good thing? Probably so - it looks attractive to bet the Ravens now, maybe too attractive.

Kiss of Death if you ask me... Cards have not performed well in nationally televised regular season games, they are favored by a lot, and they have not beaten the Ravens in years...

Did you know that in the entire decade of the 90's we only played in 2 MNF games and lost them both? But you're right. Our record on MNF is less than impressive. The most impressive win as a franchise was the very 1st one we ever played in. 38-0 over Dallas.

5-15-1 is our overall MNF record. This is why I don't feel good about this game.

I'm pretty sure we haven't due to the fact we only play them once in every four years.

What does that have to do with 2015 anyway?

Their D has 18 sacks from 11 different players, all of this without Suggs. Twice as many as ours.


With Suggs, they didnt need to send extra attackers to get pressure. Without him, they have increased their rate of blitzing... which is exposing the lack of talent in their secondary.

0-4 vs Ravens past 4. Ravens have not lost a game by more than 6 pts. If people are taking them lightly, including Cards, it's going result in an L.

Agreed, the Ravens have lost a lot of close games. Despite their talent loses they still keep the games close.

but they've lost a lot of close games... to bad teams. 3 of their four losses were to the Browns, Raiders and Niners. They're a bad team, no matter how you slice it.
