The Ravens (8-4) travel to Houston to take on the Texans (5-7) on Monday Night Football. Who wins?

What a disappointment Houston has turned into....Ravens win by double digits.

Ravens will put up a lot of offense.

Houston's D is terrible.

Baltimore 37
Houston 24

I can see the Ravens coming out flat after the Steelers spanked them,plus they may look ahead to the Saints game. I'll go with the Houston upset.
Houston-17
Ravens-16

Yeah, usually I wouldn't think twice about ignoring it but it was a pretty stupid statement so he baited me good.

I certainly would like to see the Ravens stumble but I don't expect it.

They always seem to come back strong.

And if you look at the past couple years even if they have to go on the road in the playoffs they can win (Tennessee, New England) because of a good defense and physical play and Flacco might not be elite but he's still pretty good.

I would say teams with the best chance to beat New England

1. Indianapolis (if they can win the division and sneak in, they'll still be dangerous, Manning-Brady you can never be sure who wins)
2. Baltimore
3. Pittsburgh or New York Jets

I think the Colts are finished but I realize with Manning you can never count them fully out.

I'm not sure how this game will go. I'm obviously going with the W for the Ravens but not sure if they will stomp Houston or not.

I wouldn't yet.

Their schedule is still set up to win the division. They play Jacksonville again.

If the Colts get in and host that first wild card game it's still going to be a tough challenge to beat Manning in the playoffs.

Ravens rookie David Reed under police investigation after narcotics found in his home. Being the Ravens have two murderers on their team, they should be able to sweep this under the rug.

Just deciding how much to put on the Ravens.

Throw it all down. It will take more than your jinxes to make the Ravens lose.

I'm putting $50 on the Ravens. straight up

I only win $32 if the Ravens win but that's not too bad for the money line. They're not as big a favorite as I think they should be.

I love betting like this. Fun way to manipulate the system.

As long as you have the money in the bank. I'm up about $200 on the season.

Either I'll win $32.

Or I'll lose $50 but it's not really a loss because I was up anyway -- and the Steelers will be better off.

Ed Reed looked old and washed up on that last drive. Wonder if bigdaddy would still take him over Troy?
