Game Analysis
Lean – BALTIMORE (-7) vs Houston
Joe Flacco is having perhaps the worst season of his career but I believe part of his struggles can be attributed to a brutal schedule. The Texans will be just the third defense the Ravens have faced all season ranked outside of the top 20 in yards per play allowed. Unsurprisingly Baltimore’s two highest scoring outputs of the year came against Oakland and Miami, the two defenses they faced that are not ranked in the top 20 in yppl allowed, and I expect the Ravens offense to be successful again against a Houston defense surrendering 5.7 yppl (26th).
Tom Savage is coming off his best game of the season, throwing for 6.8 yards per pass play, but he’s sucked in general (4.6 yppp this season) and I do not expect a repeat of last week’s success against a Baltimore defense ranked 3rd against the pass in my metrics. Furthermore, Ravens cornerback Jimmy Smith, allowing just 0.53 yards per cover snap (2nd), should be able to neutralize Houston’s biggest offensive threat, DeAndre Hopkins. I expect Baltimore’s defense to pick up where they left off last week shutting out the Packers and continue their dominance on Monday night. The Ravens also apply to a 52-12-2 ATS scheduling situation as they return home off two road games and I’ll lean with Baltimore at -7 or less.
