Miami quarterback Ryan Tannehill has completed 72.3 percent of his passes in the past five games while owning a 3:1 touchdown to interception ratio, which could prove costly for the Ravens’ patchy secondary. However, trends go in Baltimore’s favor, which may be why the five experts at CBS Sports all picked the Ravens to cover the +3.5 spread.

[sc:NFL240banner ]The Ravens are 4-0 SU/ATS in their last four games against Miami, and are 3-1 ATS following a loss this season. The key for the Ravens to win and cover will be to milk their running game to keep Tannehill off the field. Running back Justin Forsett has three-straight 100-yard games and four scores in the past three weeks. Miami struggled against a run-heavy offense from the Jets on Monday night, allowing 277 rushing yards on 49 New York attempts.

Richard Sherman

Bleacher Report’s belief in a Seahawks on Sunday isn’t far-fetched as Seattle’s defense is waking up at exactly the right time.

Seattle bested the Cardinals, who then had the best record in the league (9-1), 19-3 at home after allowing just 204 total yards. The Seahawks had another 19-3 win on Thanksgiving at San Francisco, limiting the 49ers to 164 total yards. Cornerback Richard Sherman has been quiet for much of the season, but had two picks against 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick. The Seahawks have won their last three trips to Philadelphia

While the Seahawks’ defense have proven capable of shutting down teams, they may have a more difficult task in slowing down Philadelphia. Through Week 13, the Eagles are averaging 16.6 first half points per game and 19.8 at home, where they’ve gone a perfect 6-0 this season.

FOX Sports not only predicted the Bills to cover the spread, they also believe that the final score, 25.1-23.3, will be too close for comfort for Denver. The Bills’ can keep the score as close as possible with their top-ranked defense. They can keep Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning in check after allowing less than 200 yards passing in their last three games. The Bills are 4-1 ATS in their last five games against Denver.

Nevertheless, the Broncos are totally different animals at home. Manning has thrown 11 touchdowns and no interceptions in the last three games at Mile High. The Broncos are on a seven-game home win streak. You can also check out our complete preview for everything you’ll need to know heading into this game.
