Baltimore Ravens vs St. Louis Rams Betting PreviewThe Baltimore Ravens are winning ugly as usual but this weekend they should be able to put some points on the board when they host a St. Louis Rams team that has given up 27.4 PPG.  Internet sportsbook SBG Global has the TOTAL in the St Louis Rams vs Baltimore Ravens game at 36.5 points.

The (0-5) St. Louis Rams have been hurt by key injuries but they battled last week in a 31-34 loss to the Arizona Cardinals as +3.5 dogs. Baltimore (3-2) has been relying on defense to carry them with their offense stuck in second gear mainly due to bookend left tackle Jonathan Ogden being out (Toe).  Last week the Ravens won ugly on the road 9-7 against the San Francisco 49ers as -4 favs.

The oddsmakers at SBG Global have the Baltimore Ravens -9 point home favorites. Most players are figuring that as bad as the Rams are the Ravens simply don’t score many points as they have only 1 TD in their last 10 quarters.  This week the Ravens will be happy to have back their pass catching machine TE Todd Heap to help boost the passing game. With their shaky O-line, Baltimore RB Willis McGahee figures to get plenty of touches in this game on the ground and in the short passing game to keep the Rams from getting too blitz happy.

The once potent Rams offense has been awful this season averaging a lowly 14.0 PPG but last week they showed signs of life scoring 31. The Rams O-line has been improving but in order to beat the Ravens on the road they will need to play a disciplined game on both side of the ball. The Rams will need another big game from rookie RB Brian Leonard who has filled in nicely for injured RB Stephen Jackson last week by accumulating 135 yards in total offense.  The weather In Baltimore will be cool and clear but it might not matter for a Rams team that is 15-31 ATS on the road.
