NFL Betting – Ravens Look To Avoid Trap As They Visit Browns
When the Baltimore Ravens arrive in Ohio to play the Cleveland Browns this weekend, they will be strong favorites to emerge victorious and maintain their perfect record against AFC North opponents this season. However, there has to be caution for a Ravens’ team that has suffered some serious hiccups already this sports betting season, with two of their three losses that come against teams with sub-.500 records.

Despite their overall struggles and the tough time that they have had within their division, the Browns have clinched four pay head wins this season, including three victories in six home games. Cleveland has struggled to stop the run all year, but they do have the best ranking against the pass, and the Ravens cannot afford to approach this game tentatively. Winning in this league comes down to not only beating the best, but having the focus and determination to play with urgency in the games that you are expected to win, and that is an area that Baltimore has struggled in so far. Look for running back Ray Rice to get a ton of carries, and offensive coordinator Cam Cameron to dial up some play-action passes to give Joe Flacco a little more time to go over the top. Flacco has struggled to live up to heavy expectations so far this NFL season, but if Baltimore is going to go deep they will need more from their franchise quarterback.
