I was tempted to take the Bucs as a home dog but the Ravens seem to have found their groove lately with four consecutive wins. Lamar Jackson has been playing a lot better recently and the team as a whole seems like they’re getting back to last season’s form.
For the injury report, the Ravens have ruled running back Rasheen Ali (ankle), linebacker Malik Harrison (groin) and wide receiver Deonte Harty (knee) out. Defensive lineman Broderick Washington (knee) is doubtful and cornerback Arthur Maulet (knee/hamstring) is questionable. Meanwhile, the Buccanneers have a few more significant injuries. Cornerback Jamel Dean (hamstring), tight end Payne Durham (calf), wide receiver Rakim Jarrett (knee) and wide receiver Kameron Johnson (ankle) are out while defensive end Earnest Brown IV (ribs), wide receiver Trey Palmer (concussion), running back Rachaad White (foot) and defensive tackle Vita Vea (hamstring) are questionable.
Chargers vs. Cardinals
- Spread: LAC -1.5
- O/U: 44.5
- LAC ML: -118
- AZ ML: +100
Holder’s picks: LAC -1.5, Under 44.5, LAC ML
Another home dog but to me, the Chargers are much more than a point and a half better than the Cardinals. Plus, Justin Herbert is healthy and the new Call of Duty is coming out soon, so who knows where Kyler Murray’s head is at this time of year. Also, Arizona ranks 30th in rushing yards allowed per game (153.0), so Jim Harbaugh has to be licking his chops heading into this one.
For the injury report, the Chargers have only ruled one player, defensive back Deane Leonard (hamstring) out, but do have several guys listed as doubtful; edge Joey Bosa (hip), tight end Hayden Hurst (groin) and wide receiver Quentin Johnston (ankle). As for the Cardinals, linebacker Owen Pappoe (hip) and defensive lineman Darius Robinson (calf) are out.
