NFL   AFC North Division

Thu 9/10  8:25PM odds from 5 Dimes

Baltimore Ravens, -175

Lamar Jackson off career year

Unless they have track record of Russell Wilson, Aaron Rogers, or Tom Brady, will definitely bet on regression

Not the passer of Mahomes

Several pending free agents on defense

Matthew Judon

Michael Pierce

Jimmy Smith

Brandon Carr

Patrick Onwuasor 

Need to improve pass rush

OL weak 

Need another WR to compliment Marquise “Hollywood” Brown 

Draft is deep at WR

Deep at RB

Pittsburgh Steelers, +310

Tomlin great job without Triplets 

Added TE Eric Ebron

Roethlisberger works well with TE

Pittsburgh will lose DT Javon Hargrave, who had four sacks in 2019

Ageing OL protecting ageing QB

Likely to grab WR to maximize Benji’s final year or two

JuJu Smith-Shuster 

Several close losses last year

Cleveland Browns, +550

Browns were everyone’s chic breakout team with Baker Mayfield

Many sportsbooks admitted if Browns won SB they’d take a bath

With Nick Chubb and Kareem Hunt, among best 1-2 punches in NFL

TE Austin Hooper a massive addition 

With David Njoku great 1-2 TE punch

Hope Myles Garrett plays whole season on defense 

WR Odell Beckham Jr. 

New HC Kevin Stefanski 

Cincinnati Bengals, +3400

A.J. Green is back 

Likely draft Joe Burrow, definitely upgrade from Andy Dalton

Joe Mixon at RB

Physical 

Defense, despite spending so much time on field, got stronger 

Zac Taylor with year under his belt

2019 first-rounder OLT Johan Williams returns to health 

Still OL is a weakness they will likely address in draft
