Baltimore has won two preseason games by a 50-23 count. QB Joe Flacco is enjoying the best training camp of his 11-year career with the addition of speedster WR John Brown, the deep-ball threat the offense needed. The passing attack has Flacco, veteran Robert Griffin III, and mobile rookie Lamar Jackson. Baltimore comes off a 33-7 rout of the Rams with 263 yards passing, 140 rushing, and the ground game has netted 253 rushing in two games. The Ravens defense has been dominant, holding the Rams to 49 yards passing, 4-of-15 on third down, and getting four sacks. In two NFLX games, the defense has eight sacks and three picks. Coach John Harbaugh has won 10 straight preseason games with the defense allowing 11.3 points per game. They head to a rebuilding Indianapolis squad that comes off a 19-17 win at Seattle, delighted to get QB Andrew Luck back in action. However, Luck admitted he was "tired" and "exhausted" after playing in his first game since the 2016 season. Do you want to rush him getting injured again against this Baltimore pass rush? And even in the win, the Colts only had 76 yards rushing, 2.3 yards per rush, and is still stuck with a below-average offensive line. Indy was just 4-of-16 on third down and the backup QB rotation is less than impressive with rookie Phillip Walker, Jacoby Brissett, and Brad Kaaya. The offense hasn't topped 19 points in six straight preseason games. The wagering value is on the visitors to win their 11th straight NFLX contest in a game with more defense than offense. Play Baltimore on the moneyline and the UNDER.
