NFL Odds – Buffalo to Remain Winless Against Baltimore in Week 7

October 24, 2010

NFL odds are that even they bye week couldn’t help the Buffalo Bills. They are simply one to the two or three worst teams in the NFL. This week, they travel to Baltimore to take on a team that is not only good on both sides of the ball, but is going to be playing with a major chip on their shoulder.

The Buffalo Bills look to keep their perfect streak in order on Sunday and NFL odds are that they will accomplish it. The Bills are a bad team, plain and simple. The offense has shown a few signs of life but the defense has been absolutely miserable.

Buffalo’s offense has only scored an average of 17.4 points per game this season but has been better of late scoring 26 or more points in each of their last two games. Ryan Fitzpatrick has been managing the game fairly well and Fred Jackson appears to be thriving as the #1 back. This week however, the team faces one of the Top defenses in the game.

Buffalo’s defense is an embarrassment. They are currently ranked last against the run (182.4 yards per game) and have given up over 200 yards rushing in each of their last three games. They have given up at least 34 points in each of their last 4 games and now average 32.2 points against this season. So far, the Bills have been outscored 146-77. Get the picture?

Baltimore let one slip through their hands last week but NFL odds are that they won’t let it happen again this week. Although the Ravens have scored an unflattering 18.7 points per game so far this season, they still boast one of the better all around offenses. Joe Flacco, Ray Rice and Anquan Boldin make up one of the better batteries in the NFL. They haven’t put it all together just yet and they are 4-2 – scary.

The heart and soul of the Ravens is still their defense. They rank third it total defense (280.5 yards per game) scoring defense (15.8 points per game allowed) and they rank 13th against the run. The defense will get a huge boost this weekend when Ed Reed returns to action. A good defense is about to get better!

NFL Odds Outlook:

Buffalo is 0-5 S/U in their last five games and is 1-5 S/U on the road in their last six. They are 1-4 S/U on the road overall but are a surprising 9-4 ATS in their last 13 games on the road. Buffalo is 4-2 S/U in their last six games against Baltimore but is 2-4 ATS in their last six trips to Baltimore.

The Ravens are 4-2 S/U this season and 5-0 S/U at home in their last five. However, they are just 2-4 S/U versus Buffalo in the last six meetings.

This will be a Baltimore win, that much is certain! But Baltimore`s defensive weakness is getting to the quarterback. Let’s hope the bye week stopped the bleeding for the Bills. With Buffalo’s offense playing better of late I think that this will be a closer game than most think. I expect Baltimore to grind out a win here – the rushing offenses will be heavily featured.

NFL Odds Pick: Buffalo Bills to cover the 13 1/2 points
