I expect CEH to have a big game. He looked great in the passing game against the Chargers. Wasn't utilized much in the run game. He is made for big games like this. [Reply]

Unless something goes seriously wrong, this is probably the only game all season where we’ll be the underdog. Maybe, maybe Tampa but if so probably only as a -1 or so. [Reply]

Nah. Kickers, even the best ones, aren’t worth anywhere near 3 points from a line set perspective. The 3 points is standard for a home game between two (on paper, in the media, etc) evenly matched teams. Now, this year is weird because there is no real home field advantage (I don’t think Baltimore is letting in any fans) but nothing about the Ravens play through the first two weeks would dictate a line move off of the -3. In other words, Vegas is saying “this is a pick ‘em but the game is in Baltimore so they get the standard 3 points for home field). Unless heavy money starts coming in one way or another, this should stay at about 3. [Reply]

Chiefs need to bring the heat on D. I fear that stopping the run will be a problem. Even with Pennel back. Hitchens is really playing like shit...time to move on from him next yr. Dude just looks slower than shit..not sure what happened there. [Reply]
