QB Joe Flacco to WR Anquan Boldin was a brilliant combo on Sunday but CB Champ Bailey might make that more difficult so he will need to get more receivers involved.<\/p>\n
Other than Boldin receivers caught just 3 balls, that number needs to go up…<\/p>\n
Last week\u2019s ATS win was just the second since December for the Ravens. \u00a0As a heavy underdog I think you have to like Baltimore as they are a good team and Denver\u2019s public perception is probably higher than it needs to be.<\/p>\n
Recent trends have also been in favour of those teams that play the first weekend of the playoffs too. [soliloquy id=”82219″]<\/p>\n
Denver<\/h3>\n
I probably shouldn\u2019t be at this point but I am little surprised about Denver this year.<\/p>\n
I did think Peyton Manning would make a difference but I envisioned this team as being 10-6 not the 13-3 juggernaut that ripped off 11 straight victories to close the season. \u00a0All by a touchdown or more too…Denver is a top 4 team on both sides of the ball. \u00a0With Manning at the helm they have changed their offensive identity.<\/p>\n
He has made receivers Demaryius Thomas and Eric Decker into fantasy stars with just enough running to keep teams honest.<\/p>\n
On defense, linebacker Von Miller gets the attention for his sacks but this team just doesn\u2019t give up much, second in yards against running and passing…<\/p>\n
The Broncos finished the season 10-6 ATS, they were 8-3 during their 11 game winning streak. \u00a0They lost just one game at home this season and I think they will win but those are a lot of points to cover in a contest like this.<\/p>\n
The Broncos could blow them out but it doesn\u2019t seem likely to me<\/p>\n
