For the Baltimore Ravens, this has been a lost season in many ways. They got off to a horrible start, losing three close games right off the bat, and the bad luck continued, as they dropped six of their first seven. At that point, the playoffs were a real long shot, and even despite a victory last Sunday, they can pretty much pack it in and wait for next year. On Monday night they will have to move forward with another quarterback, as their starter, former Super Bowl MVP Joe Flacco, is out for the season. They face off against the Cleveland Browns, who have re-installed Josh McCown as their starting quarterback for this game that begins at 8:30 PM ET at First Energy Stadium in Cleveland.

The Ravens came back from a 13-point deficit last Sunday do defeat the St. Louis Rams 16-13, but it came with some bad news. Joe Flacco suffered a torn ACL on the next-to-last play from scrimmage, and he limped off the field. Earlier, Justin Forsett, their top running back (641 yards) had suffered a broken arm. So it is obvious that this team goes into this Monday night encounter minus key weapons. How will they handle it? And how much pride will this team be playing with when their record is 3-7?

Baltimore will be going with Matt Schaub at quarterback in this one. Of course, football bettors remember Schaub as the guy who basically ran himself out of Houston by throwing all those pick-sixes in a disastrous season for the Texans two years ago. Then he went to Oakland, where he was actually expected to be the starting quarterback, but lost out to rookie Derek Carr. The other side of it is that Schaub had some very good years with Houston, and not only made the Pro Bowl, he was the MVP of that game as well. So what we are saying is that Baltimore does not exactly go into this game with a quarterback who is without experience.

At the running back position, it is a bit of a different story. However, those Vietbet patrons who have seen Buck Allen is not action know that the USC product is pretty capable, so this team might not be all that handicapped by the move.

The injury that many NFL betting observers point to as the downfall of this team took place in the opening game, as Terrell Suggs was lost for the season. Not having that key pass rusher was a big blow, and Suggs was said to bring a lot of leadership quality to the table. Still there has been some fight in this proud squad; take note that they Ravens have suffered six of their seven losses by six points or less, so it is not as if this team has not been in just about every ball game they have played. They have just suffered too much attrition on both sides, including the loss of WR Steve Smith, who is retiring.

 

On the technical side, neither of these teams has done too well against the football pointspread; the Browns are just 2-8 ATS, while the Ravens are a dismal 2-7-1 against the number.
