Monday Night Football

It used to be that NFL football action meant Sunday afternoons. And the games strayed into Monday Nights as well. And then into Sunday nights. But the evolution of the league hasn’t stopped there and now we have games on Saturday nights late in the season and there’s now even multiple options for week night NFL action thanks to the Thursday games.

A Monday Night Football betting win is a win and in the most competitive division in the NFL you can’t underestimate how much a victory is worth.

The Baltimore Ravens have been a moderate disappointment at 4-4 and will have to fight for their lives to make the playoffs.

The Browns have been simply terrible and so bad at times that it’s almost unwatchable. So you can be forgiven if this week’s Monday Night Football betting matchup doesn’t send chills down your spine.

Already in the early Monday Night Football odds, the Ravens are 10½ point favorites and the spread could even widen out between now and then. If the week 1 results from the first time these two teams played are anything to go by, this will be a lop-sided win for Baltimore.  Read more…
