Week 8 NFL Lines: Broncos vs. Ravens

Sunday NFL Betting – Broncos Should Stay Perfect In Baltimore

The Denver Broncos are a perfect 6-0 on the year and are one of only three remaining undefeated teams in the NFL. They’ll get another tough test this week as they head to Baltimore to face a Ravens team that also was once perfect this season.

The Ravens started the year with three straight wins, were atop the NFC North and were considered to be one of the best teams in the league. But after three straight losses with their defense letting them down time and time again, a lot of people are wondering how good this Ravens unit really is.

The Chicago Bears have been up-and-down this season. They have looked good in their three home wins but have whiffed twice in their two road losses. Last week, the Bears played the Atlanta Falcons really tough but ended up losing the game as the Falcons scored on their last drive and the Bears could not match.

The Value of Run Defense

Jim Feist
Jim Feist

Like a giant leak on a sinking ship, one of the first signs of a poor pro football team is weak run defense. Stopping the run is essential to building a championship team. Who won the Super Bowl in January? The Steelers, a team with the No. 1 overall defense, including No. 2 against the run. In 2007, the eventual champion NY Giants were No. 8 against the run.

Turnovers Can Turn the Tide

A recent Monday night football game saw Brett Favre battle his old team, Green Bay. Favre was the story, with a terrific performance, but young QB Aaron Rodgers put up some sizzling numbers, with 384 yards and 2 TDs. Impressive.

Did they win? Or cover? No, as Minnesota won 30-23.

The most obvious explanation and it’s obvious: 2 turnovers. Turnovers are one of the most basic fundamentals of winning football, both straight up and against the number when analyzing football picks.
