Once again, the\nthree games we told you to avoid all ended up being winners. However,\ntwo of those victories ended up being rather fortunate. Seattle\nneeded overtime to knock off Tampa Bay at home in a wild 40-34\nshootout, and Buffalo needed to score a touchdown in the final three\nminutes to cover 9.5 points per the NFL\nbetting odds<\/a> against Washington. The only team that\ncovered with ease was Houston, as the Texans never trailed in a\ncomfortable 26-3 win over the Jaguars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

GAMES TO AVOID IN WEEK 10<\/span><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

BALTIMORE RAVENS -10 AT CINCINNATI BENGALS<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Everyone loves\nBaltimore on the road against Cincinnati this week. The Ravens\nhammered New England 37-20 to deal the Patriots their worst loss of\nthe season last Sunday night, and the Baltimore bandwagon is at a\ntipping point. This team should not be favored by 10 points on the\nroad against anyone given what we have seen from the Ravens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

John Harbaugh is the\nbest coach in the NFL off a bye week, but Baltimore was not playing\nthat well before its bye. The Ravens were pummeled at home by\nCleveland, and they needed overtime to beat Pittsburgh. Baltimore\nonly beat Cincinnati at home by six points in the first meeting\nbetween these teams, and the Ravens also only beat Arizona by six\npoints too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cincinnati is the\nonly winless team remaining in the NFL, but the Bengals haven\u2019t\nbeen hapless. Their point differential is better than three other\nteams, and five of their eight losses have been by 10 points or less.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Bengals have had\ntwo weeks to prepare for the Ravens due to their bye week. Rookie\nRyan Finley will be making his first career start, but that\u2019s not\nthe red flag it has been in past seasons. We have seen rookie\nquarterbacks thrive in their debut since opposing defensive\ncoordinators don\u2019t have recent film on them, and Gardner Minshew,\nDaniel Jones, Sam Darnold, and Kyler Murray all had nice starts.\nFinley has the weapons to keep this one within the football\nbetting line<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

BUFFALO BILLS +2.5 AT CLEVELAND BROWNS<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The vast majority of\nbettors are fading Ohio\u2019s other NFL franchise too. Since Buffalo is\n6-2 and Cleveland is 2-6 many are jumping on the chance to bet\nthe Bills<\/a> on the moneyline since they are short\nunderdogs in the Dawg Pound on Sunday. That might not be the best\nidea considering what we have seen from Buffalo\u2019s offense recently\nthough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Opposing defenses\nare starting to hone in on Josh Allen\u2019s weaknesses once again.\nWhile Sean McDermott did a good job masking the fact that Allen can\u2019t\nthrow the ball for the opening half of the season, he has thrown for\nless than 220 yards in five straight games. Allen has a big arm, but\nhis inaccuracy on passes longer than 20 yards keeps him from testing\nthe field too much, and defensive backs are starting to roll up to\nshut down the short routes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Buffalo has yet to\nrecord an impressive win either. The best team the Bills have\ndefeated is 4-5 Tennessee. The other five teams Buffalo has defeated\nare a combined 5-37, calling into question that 6-2 record. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cleveland\u2019s main\nproblem this season has been turnovers. Baker Mayfield has thrown 12\ninterceptions through eight games, but it\u2019s very unlikely he keeps\nthat pace up. The Bills have a subpar run defense, and Nick Chubb\nshould be able to gash Buffalo on the ground all day long. Don\u2019t be\nsurprised if Cleveland covers\nthe pleaser number<\/a> and wins by double digits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

SEATTLE SEAHAWKS +6 AT SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The Seahawks are\nvery fortunate to be 7-2. Only two of Seattle\u2019s seven wins have\nbeen convincing, and this team could easily be under .500 right now.\nWe saw winless Cincinnati outplay Seattle on the road in the season\nopener, Tampa Bay take them to overtime last week, and Greg Zuerlein\nmiss a field goal that would have given the Rams over the Seahawks in\nthe Emerald City.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

San Francisco is the\nonly undefeated team left in the NFL, and this defense has been\nincredible. The 49ers have a great young front seven, and it\u2019s\ntough to imagine the Seahawks having much success running against\nthem. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the other side of the ball, Seattle\u2019s defense has not been great or even good. The Seahawks have the 27th<\/sup> best defense in the NFL by DVOA, so Kyle Shanahan is likely to come up with a gameplan to carve this defense up. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
