Xam’s Daily Gem:
Raiders/Ravens Over 41 Points -110 BetMGM 1 Unit
PLAY OF THE DAY!
Both teams come into today looking to avoid the dreaded 0-2 start. For the Ravens, a team with Super Bowl aspirations, this is as close to a MUST WIN game as Week2 gets! Since 1990, teams starting 0-2 have made the playoffs just 11.4% of the time! The Ravens are coming off extra rest since they opened the season in Kansas City back on September 5th. The Ravens were an ELITE scoring team at home last year, averaging just under 32 points per game at home! Facing a West Coast team traveling East for an early game shouldn’t pose much of a challenge for the Ravens. Last week, the Chargers ran roughshod over the Raiders, tallying 176 rushing yards on the day. With Lamar Jackson, Derrick Henry, and Justice Hill, the Ravens SHOULD be able to pound the rock ALL DAY! Frankly, this Play will come down to what Gardner Minshew and the Raiders can produce offensively. They only mustered 10 points last week. They HAVE TO get superstar wide receiver Davante Adams involved early and often. Getting Zamir White involved early and often wouldn’t be a bad idea either. If the Raiders can show up offensively, the Ravens SHOULD care for the rest! The Ravens will come into this game MAD and READY TO GO! As long as the Raiders keep it interesting for a while, the Ravens shouldn’t have ANY ISSUES putting up points and getting us Over this Total!
