We cashed 2 Same Game Parlays in Week 7 of the NFL season, including a +1700 home run on the New York Jets vs Denver Broncos showdown. Let's keep the momentum going into Week 8, which begins in the form of Thursday Night Football between the Baltimore Ravens and Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Ravens are 4-3, which is unspectacular but still better than the Buccaneers (3-4).
Below is our SGP for TNF, and also be sure to check out our full Baltimore Ravens vs Tampa Bay Buccaneers picks'on the side and total.
Part of the value in same game parlays, of course, is that all of its components can be correlated if you so choose. That is some of the plan here, as Devin Duvernay finding the endzone would obviously work well with a Baltimore cover. At the same time, plays that correlated drive up the overall payout of the parlay. That is the case with backing Leonard Fournette to rack up a decent amount of rushing yards. But even if Fournette does that, there is no reason why the Ravens can't take care of business. Let’s break down each of these legs one by one.
Ravens -1.5 (-110)
The last 2 weeks have been an unmitigated disaster for Tampa Bay. A 2-game losing streak is bad enough regardless of the opposition, but when it comes at the hands of the Pittsburgh Steelers and Carolina Panthers it's especially alarming. The Ravens have not been amazing, themselves, but they are at least sporting a winning record and coming off a big AFC North win over the Cleveland Browns. Look no further than the spread to see that this is expected to be a close game, in which case I am happy to ride with the team that boasts the best kicker in the business (Baltimore's Justin Tucker). However, I actually think the Bucs will be lucky if this even comes down to a field goal; the Ravens just might cover with ease.
