Ravens vs. Bucs, Lamar Jackson vs. Tom Brady Prop Bets
First things first, games that have featured a line of -3 to -2.5 went in favor of the favorite covering in - get this - 16 of 20 games so far this season. As of Thursday, the Baltimore Ravens vs. Tampa Bay Bucs game was yet to hit the magic number of -2.5 at the books we monitor specifically for this trend.
One of those books is FanDuel. There the number was moving between the -1 and 1.5 favoring Tampa after Baltimore opened at -1.5. FanDuel did have the number at -2.5 early on.
Tampa is really tumbling on the Sagarin ratings. They are still at No. 7 with a rating of 22.94. Home field advantage tacked on gives us a number of 24.44 and the final calculation for this game: Tampa Bay 1.1. The current line is accurate.
Gambling911.com hasn't necessarily monitored games with lines that are -2 or below and we are less likely to suggest betting on game where the favorite has changed during the course of a week.
The Buccaneers went 2-for-12 on third downs in a game against the lowly Carolina Panthers. That team went up against the Buccaneers with an interim coach and third string quarterback starting.
"I think there's always hope and then there's reality," the 45-year-old Brady said immediately following the game. "The only thing you can focus on is what the reality of the situation is, and that's we haven't played our best football."
As for Baltimore, Lamar Jackson threw for just 120 yards and rushed for 59 yards in a 23-20 victory over the Cleveland Browns this past Sunday. The Ravens enter this game 4-3 Straight Up but just 2-4 Against The Spread.
