Best NFL Wild Card Weekend Same Game Parlays Bets: Ravens vs. Bengals
Letâs get straight into my same-game parlay picks for Sundayâs Super Wild Card Weekend games.
Baltimore Ravens at Cincinnati Bengals (-8.5), Total 40.5
- Ravens under 16.5 points
- J.K. Dobbins under 69.5 rushing yards
- Joe Burrow under 279.5 passing yards
- Odds: +295
This is going to be an ugly conclusion to Wild Card Sunday. Lamar Jackson hasnât practiced yet and is unlikely to play Sunday night. Whatâs worse is Tyler Huntley didnât throw during Wednesdayâs open portion of practice. That means Anthony Brown could be back under center for the second straight week against the Bengals.
The spread and total have already been hit hard. So instead of taking a bad number, Iâd rather isolate Baltimoreâs offense in this same-game parlay. The Ravens were lucky to score 16 points last weekend, and that was partly because Cincinnati laid off the gas once they established a lead. In the postseason, I donât expect the Bengals to pull back until really late in the contest.
Iâd expect the Bengals, who rank 14th in rush defense DVOA, to key on limiting Baltimoreâs running game, daring Brown or Huntley to beat them. That means reduced running lanes for Dobbins, who could struggle with less open space to operate.
Finally, the Ravens have a strong secondary thatâll be well prepared and highly motivated, knowing that Baltimoreâs defense will have to carry them to a victory. Burrow didnât come close to clearing this prop in both matchups this season. I donât expect things to come easy for him Sunday night.
