NFL Picks Kansas City Chiefs vs Baltimore Ravens NFL Betting Odds: A couple of young and talented QB’s will put their teams to the test when Kansas City’s Matt Cassel duels Baltimore’s Joe Flacco at 1 PM ET in Baltimore. The Baltimore Ravens are out to prove that they are poised for a Superbowl run while Kansas City first year coach Todd Haley will be trying to bring the Chiefs back to respectability.

The NFL Picks experts at online sportsbook Bodog.com have the home team getting hammered by gamblers moving the NFL betting odds from –10 points to the Baltimore Ravens -12.5 points against the Kansas City Chiefs.

Baltimore Ravens Offense vs. Kansas City Chiefs Defense: The Baltimore Ravens will try to use their downhill running game to bully a Chiefs rushing defense that has a below-average front seven. The Ravens also want to be more vertical in the passing game with rocket armed QB Joe Flacco. Flacco should have plenty of time to throw against a Chiefs defense that has a weak pass-rush.

The NFL Picks experts at online sportsbook Bodog.com have the NFL odds on the Chiefs vs Ravens Total set at 36 points.

Kansas City Chiefs vs. Baltimore Ravens: The Chiefs will try to run a balanced attack against a Ravens defense that is among the best in the NFL.The Chiefs have a porous O-line that is among the worst in the NFL so Chiefs RB’s Larry Johnson and Jamaal Charles could find running lanes scarce. As good as Baltimore is on defense their pass-rush is not dominant. Matt Cassel should have enough time to make some plays to his playmaking WR Dwayne Bowe.

Intangibles: Cassel is battling a knee injury and his mobility could be hindered. The Chiefs recently fired offensive coordinator Chan Gailey which leaves both coaching and offensive play-calling duties to rookie head coach Todd Haley. The Chiefs special teams are among the worst in the NFL. Baltimore has gone a profitable 8-2 ATS in their last 10 games against the AFC. The Chiefs best player in the secondary CB Brandon Flowers is listed as questionable with a shoulder injury.
