5.5** NFL POD Saturday - Ravens vs. Patriots

[Pick Bot]

Ravens +7.5 5.5* NFL POD
I am going to grab this line right now. The Ravens have proven that when they are in the playoffs they are one tough team to beat. It's a combination of Joe Flacco being so cool and their coach John Harbough who is one of the best in the league. Harbough is 9-4 in post season play and 2-1 in New England including a game that they arguably should have won. That's not to say that Tom Brady and Bill Belichick aren't great in their own right, but over a TD is just too much when you consider that the Ravens are the physical type of team the Patriots hate to play and struggle with. The Ravens strengths are up front along the defensive line they have the run stuff unit that is among the best in the league led by Ngata and Suggs and Dumervil are terrorizing off the edge and could give Brady some issues. Bottom line this Ravens team was the best in their division all year long and proved that by moving on yesterday.
