Now, no prizes for guessing who's going to win this game! :D
The undefeated Patriots travel to the lowly Ravens having already
secured their play-off berth with 5 games stil to play.

No, the only decision to make regarding this game is to decide
just how many points the Patriots are going to win by.

Indeed, they have won all but one of their games on the road
by at least 21 points or more.

However, they were run close last week against the Philadelphia
Eagles and Baltimore are no slouches at home, despite their poor
record this season.

With the Patriots Quaterback Tom Brady having picked up an injury
last week, I wouldn't expect the Pats to be overly reliant on him
once they get into the lead.

The money has been coming for the Patriots -20 on the handicap market.
However, I am going to suggest going against the grain on this one.
The Patriots are going to score a hatfull, but I reckon the Ravens at home
will at least keep them on their toes.

You can get 10/11 on the Baltimore Ravens + 19 at several firms.
Boylesports even give an extra point for the same price.

I must restate it is undisputable who will win this game. It is already sewn
up, so much so that Paddypowers go 50/1 ON the Patriots to win outright :ooo

A small bet on the Patriots victory to be between 13 and 18 points
also looks a good bet being that I don't think that the Pats will run away with
the game.

BETTING ADVICE
5 POINTS Baltimore Ravens + 20 @ 10/11 [Boylesports]
1 POINT New England Patriots winning margin 13-18 points @ 9/2 [Skybet / Stan James]

Indeed, looked like they were goig to struggle.

Always risky offering double figures on teams in a two horse race...

But what the heck... we got away with it. :D

TOTAL PROFIT
3.54 POINTS

You just knew within first quarter last night that NE were not going to roll Ravens over by big score didnt you? They have a very good defence...makes you wonder if they can play like that last night...what are they doing where they are? :doh

Didn't see it but was it case of being similar to football, already through to play offs so trying a few things out and playing a bit below par?


Good call Vegy anyway :thumbs
