Walter Football is at it again
Poor Walter - still doesn't like the Chiefs.
Even when he says the Ravens have no chance, he still has to point out all the flaws in our "overrated" team. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Kansas City Chiefs (8-5) at Baltimore Ravens (4-9) Line: Chiefs by 7.5. Total: 41.5. Las Vegas Hilton Advance Point Spread: Chiefs -5. Walt's Calculated Line: Chiefs -6. Sunday, Dec 20, 1:00 ET Comment on this game The Game. Edge: Chiefs. BALTIMORE OFFENSE: The Ravens made some news Monday by signing Ryan Mallett, who agreed to a contract that allows for 14 missed practices because of broken alarms. It was quite the deal for Mallett, who won't have to worry about being late very often. In all seriousness, the Mallett addition was first seen as a sign that Matt Schaub wouldn't be available for this contest, but Baltimore simply wanted Mallett to groom him as a backup of the future. It'll be either Schaub or Jimmy Clausen in this matchup, which means pick-sixes or checkdowns. It won't matter very much against a ferocious Kansas City defense that has clamped down on bad offenses quite often recently. Tamba Hali and the emerging Dee Ford are going to completely disrupt Baltimore's offensive rhythm. The Ravens' only hope is to get the ball early and often to Buck Allen. Wait, I just realized how dumb that sounded. Scratch that, Baltimore has no hope. The Chiefs are tied for eighth versus the run in terms of YPC, and over the past month, they've surrendered just 3.13 YPC. KANSAS CITY OFFENSE:The Ravens have a well-documented liability on this side of the ball. Their secondary has been in shambles all year, and a lacking pass rush doesn't help matters. However, this might not be the worst matchup for them because Alex Smith doesn't have a habit of connecting on deep passes downfield. In fact, Smith was intercepted on a long try to Jeremy Maclin against the Chargers, as his pass was predictably underthrown. Smith will have some success dinking and dunking, and he'll also pick up some first downs with his legs. However, there is some concern in this regard, as Baltimore defends tight ends extremely well. Smith may not be able to connect with Travis Kelce all that much, which could force some punts. The Chiefs, of course, will attempt to establish the run. They may not have Spencer Ware, but that's fine because Charcandrick West can handle the workload on his own. Having said that, West may not have the success that most anticipate. Remember when I said the Chiefs were tied for eighth against the rush? The team they're tied with is Baltimore. RECAP: The Ravens are another team that will be looking to get back to basics following an embarrassing loss. It's a fair point to wonder if they can actually do that, given the number of injuries they've sustained, but there's no question that they'll be battling a team far worse than Seattle this week. That'll give Baltimore a chance to hang around, and it's worth noting that before the Seattle contest, the Ravens hadn't lost by more than eight points to anyone all year. As for the Chiefs, they're a very overrated team right now. They could've easily lost their previous two games, and I don't think they'll be completely focused here. Thus, I'm picking Baltimore, but I can't say I have much confidence in the selection; I don't really feel like wagering any money on either Clausen or Schaub unless it's against another bad team (like the Dolphins back in Week 13.) WEDNESDAY THOUGHTS: This spread is falling a bit to -7 -115 or -120, indicating that there's sharp money on Baltimore. It's too early to say for sure, but there's no way the pros will be on Kansas City. This line is too large. The Psychology. Edge: Ravens. I don't think the Ravens will have Kansas City's full attention. They'll be looking to get things right following a blowout loss. The Vegas. Edge: Ravens. Everyone is betting the Chiefs, of course. • Percentage of money on Kansas City: 82% (5,000 bets) The Trends. Edge: Ravens. • John Harbaugh is 9-3 ATS following a loss of 10+. • Opening Line: Chiefs -7.5. • Opening Total: 43. • Weather: . Week 15 NFL Pick: Chiefs 16, Ravens 10 Ravens +7.5 (0 Units) Under 41.5 (0 Units) Read more at http://walterfootball.com/nflpicks20...0xVf2yuypWl.99 Last edited by Misplaced_Chiefs_Fan; 12-18-2015 at 03:56 PM.. |

JFC he doesn't even offer a reason why he puts the Chiefs at 10. People actually make bets based on this shit?
Wonder what his excuse will be if the Chiefs beat the Patriots. I'm curious, what his predition was last year when the Chiefs annhilated them. Not to mention his excuse after as well.

That's also because if you disagree with him, he bans you from the site and deletes your posts.

Can't wait to see how he rationalizes the Chiefs beating the Patriots. He's pissed me off for years.

If you lost as much money as Walter the D bag betting against the Chiefs this year-you would be a hater too.
And every week-it is because the other team played poorly-Not that the Cheifs played good. Even a 30 point blowout-was just lucky. Chiefs lead the entire game-but according to this dumbass-did nothing to deserve the win and the score was a Lot closer than what it looked. LOL |

Hmm, we were up 27 points with about 3 minutes to go when we got that last interception. Why not just lay-up and take the FG. What would it really have proven with Chase and all the other backups in to shove a touchdown down Houston's throat then? Is 34-0 really that much more impressive than 30-0?

I hope they all keep hating on the Chiefs. Defense and a strong running game wins Championships-and we have both. I really want to stomp the Pats-if not all the haters will say-see told ya so-all just luck-Chiefs never beat anyone good. |

It isn't that the Chiefs didn't run up the score - it's that they didn't pull away sooner. They played a C+ game against Houston, IMO and they'll need to do much better than that against NE. Smith needs to connect on that deep ball. Sure, Wilson getting slow out of his break and not laying out hurt him a lot there, but man try putting a little air under it next time. The pick was on a throw behind Maclin that got deflected because he didn't put it where only his WR could get to it on a very simple pitch and catch. Those 2 misses can't happen. There were some drives that started in great field position that ended up coming up a yard or two short of the sticks on 3rd down - again, can't do that. It's time to play their A game and there's no reason they can't do it. But if they play another C game, they'll lose.

They're probably looking at the fact that Houston was in the game early despite turning the ball over 3-4 times at that point. To be honest, the game was still so close I was thinking this would be a new way the Chiefs would break our hearts again in the playoffs. The D wasn't having it though and stayed consistently dominant.
