Game: Baltimore@New England
Records: Baltimore 3-0 New England 2-1
My Pick: Baltimore+3
Reason: Baltimore has a very agreesive and smash-mouth mentality on defense and offense. Two very good Linebackers are probable on both sides(Ray Lewis and Jared Mayo) which means they won'y be 100% when or if they step on the field. But the Ravens Defense has even talent to cover the absence of Ray Lewis. With the loss of Jared Mato a mediocre defense just degraded to a horrible defense. And the Ravens with exploit this. Tom Brady will have trouble today getting the ball to anyone, as long as the Ravens blitz Tom Brady. It's a very very simple equation Pressure on Tom Brady=Incomplete passes and Sacks. So take Baltimore+3
