Falcons vs. Ravens: NFL Week 16 Early Odds, Picks & Predictions (2022)

Last week, I suggested picking up the Vikings at -5.5, thinking that the Vikings would take care of the Lions. I was wrong on that one.

However, I also suggested taking the Dolphins at +7 against the Bills and the Patriots at +2 against the Raiders. The Dolphins didn’t move because of a poor performance last week. However, the Patriots are now at EVEN. So we essentially went 1-1-1 with our EV picks last week.

I’m hoping to get at least two EV selections this week. And here’s a closer look at Falcons vs. Ravens.

Falcons vs. Ravens: NFL Week 16 Early Odds, Picks & Predictions (2022)

Lamar Jackson isn’t healthy enough to return to the football field this week against the Browns. He might not even be available for next week’s game against the Falcons.

The Browns are currently 3-point favorites against the 9-4 Ravens with Tyler Huntley under center.

Meanwhile, the Falcons will take on the New Orleans Saints with Desmond Ridder under center. Most of you will agree when I state that Ridder was the best rookie quarterback in pre-season. He’s going to get the start with Drake London lining up at receiver. Ridder could put together a big performance and help the Falcons to their 6th win of the year.

If he performs at a high level, the Falcons aren’t 6.5-point underdogs, even if Jackson is healthy and ready to play.

Bet: Falcons +6.5 (-110)
