New York at Baltimore

John Harbaugh has now won six straight games during the NFLX. Does that lead to a Baltimore win here? Not so fast. His past history shows fast starts and slow finishes as he is just .500 in weeks three and four of the preseason. The Giants played without Eli Manning last week and still managed 17 points. With Manning expected to play in this one, I like them to be able to at least equal that, making the points look good here. The Giants are throwing the ball a lot, averaging over 220 yards per game. I expect Bradshaw to get more carries here in game three, and he has been explosive at 10.7 yards per carry thus far. Joe Flacco has already thrown two picks in limited action for the Ravens. I like the Giants in a close one where the points are huge. I also like the OVER here. Giants games thus far have resulted in 47 and 41 points. Baltimore is averaging 20 points per game on offense. I expect the offenses, with first stringers seeing more action, and having worked out the kinks somewhat in their first two games, to have success enough to push this game OVER the total.
