Football betting odds makers think about the Ravens to be one of the elite top shelf football betting commodities that can go all the way in this year’s playoffs.





Football betting skepticism is high for the Kansas city chiefs as they enter the payoffs as an unanticipated team but with a lot of turmoil as they enter the football betting post year.

The Kansas city chiefs will host the Ravens on Sunday in the AFC wildcard playoffs with a aired on CBS established to start at 1 PM ET. The sports book opened up with Baltimore as a 3 point favorite and with a total of 41.

Baltimore enters the playoffs with a Nfl betting record of 12-4 straight up and 8-7-1 against the spread as 9 of their games dropped under the total. The Ravens were evened up for 1st place in the AFC North with the Pittsburgh steelers but lost the tie breaker. Baltimore ended the year as one of the top clubs on the board with 4 sequential wins and with 3 payouts in those games.

The strength of the Ravens is their defense as it ranks 10th overall in the nfl but an even better third for points granted. The offense ranks in the heart of the league but does have strong points as running back Ray Rice rushed for over 1200 yards and qb Joe Flacco was reliable as he threw for 3622 yards. If the Ravens shut down the Kansas City offense as is also expected then this match boils down to Baltimore’s offense against Kansas City’s defense. The Ravens can run the ball with Ray Rice as they were 14th in the league in rushing yards per match. Joe Flacco is regarded as a reliable qb but Baltimore does not throw it that usually. The Kansas City Chiefs were 15th in the league against the run and 17th against the pass.

Kansas City has a Nfl betting record of 10-6 straight up and 9-7 against the spread with 9 of their games falling under the total. The Kansas City Chiefs were a last place team last year and their rise is a credit to general manager Scott Pioli and head coach Todd Haley who have been on the position for just 2 seasons.

Kansas City enters wildcard weekend betting with turmoil nonetheless as offensive coordinator Charlie Weiss stated he is leaving the team after the playoffs for the same position in college football with the Gators. Weiss did a outstanding position with the offense as it ranked 12th overall and 1st in rushing whereas qb Matt Cassel showed incredible growth as he threw for over 3100 yards.

Baltimore has a lot of playoff knowledge and that would figure to offer them a reliable football betting advantage over Kansas City in this matchup despite the fact that the Kansas City Chiefs are expecting a voracious full house at Arrowhead.
