Commentary: Last season, the Ravens dominated the regular season but fell short against the Chiefs in the AFC Championship game. They added Derrick Henry to bolster an already-stout running game; however, they lost many key players in free agency. They are still elite on both sides of the ball with an excellent head coach, but they have an insanely tough schedule with the Chiefs, Cowboys, Bills, and Bengals in four of their first five games. They were dominant against the first half spread last season – a league leading 14-4 1H ATS, so that is an angle to keep your eye on this season.
