IMO Chiefs are the 2nd worst team in the entire playoffs (jets are a close 3rd). First playoff trip for KC and a lot of their players versus an experienced team and lets face it, home field means dick in the playoffs for the most part.

Before looking at the line I would've guessed Balty was a 3.5 - 4pt favorite. Damn I'm shocked to see this down to -1. I don't make plays this early, but right now how do you not take Balty -1.

I would have thought Baltimore would have been a 2-4 pt favorite. This line now Begs for action on the Ravens. Arrowhead is not a place you really want to play in the playoffs. I do think the Ravens are a much better team and could even make some noise in New England if they win. I smell a fishy line. Maybe Baltimore wins the game by one and the odds makers finally get a line right this year in the NFL???

Ok , this makes more sense. I use my lines from Danny sheridan and I do see that this line opened at 3 and has been pounded down to 1. Now I think I may like the Ravens a little bit more!

Lean to the Ravens, but like the Under the best.

KC has two personalities. Really bad and darn good.

I think the darn good personality will show up at home for their playoff game. This game comes down to two players. Flacco and Charles.

If Flacco doesn't throw any interceptions and can keep the chains moving...I think the Ravens win. If Charles can have some big runs, especially in the second half. I think the Chiefs win. Flacco hasn't impressed me as much this season as he did last season. He did step up last year in the playoffs though but he isn't the kind of QB that is going to beat you with his arm. He also didn't build a solid connection with Boldin that he needed to during the season. Charles needs holes to run and for that to happen the Chiefs are going to have to pass more to keep the Ravens defense honest.

I think the best bet is a two team teaser. Tease the dog and then tease the line up and take the under. That would be my play. But straight up, take KC. They are well coached and will come to play, don't be fooled by their loss to the Raiders or blow out to the Chargers. They are tough, just like the Seahawks, at home.

Matt Cassell was struggling against the Raiders defense!!! Ravens will focus on the run and make Cassell beat them.. (NOT HAPPENING)

I thought they would open bmore at 2.5 so I don't really think its a shady line like some. I do agree with you they will likely attract more raven money with this line. We will have to watch what the line does, but normally you would expect some 3/3.5's to pop up.
