That said, I don't see why this is the biggest pointspread in nfl history. I can understand it, but surely there have been other games with bigger blowout potential.

Umm the spread last week I think was as high as 24.5 favoring the Pats...

As bad as the Ravens are, with a 19 point spread they still arn't a bad bet ... Pats will win but may not cover.

I could see this one possibly turning out a lot like the Dallas/Buffalo MNF game earlier this season.

I agree with that assessment. Every team going against them will use them as a benchmark. Win or lose, it will high light their weaknesses and strengths.

Yup, wind is very strong in Baltimore tonight. That could affect Brady's passing.

I'll be out supporting my team tonight.

Go Ravens!

I need Moss and Gostkowski to get 37 points for me as well. And you're right, with this team it's possible.

I've been hearing this story angle from every team they've faced. "There is a significant veteran presence on this team and they won't stand for being blown out at home".

Patriots 48, Ravens 6

PaulNEPats and Josh: I pray and hope that one of your predictions come true. I know its a longshot, but I need NE to cover the 20.5 and also keep the total at 45 or under. Paul your 35-10 prediction would be perfect!!!

This is for my weekly pick em pool, I havent won a week yet this year.. $475 at stake. I was thinking about hedging my bet with a $100 parlay on Balt +18.5 (current line) and the over (46.5). But then if Baltimore covers and the total is under 46.5, I am REAL screwed!

This is the biggest point spread in history for a road favorite

I mute those tools.

i would love to listen to the wbcn broadcast with the tv muted, but the radio is often way ahead of tv. if the tv broadcast hit me first, i could pause it for a few seconds to sync the audio.

Tirico just said: "Welcome to a very windy B'more tonight, as you can see"

Ummm actually.. No Mike.. We CANT see. You three dooshbags are sitting in a booth so nothing is flying around, and last time I checked, WIND wasnt visible to the naked eye.
