Sharpest NFL Spread Pick for Ravens vs. Texans
*Odds as of Wednesday morning
Baltimore is a 5.5-point spread favorite against Houston based on live NFL odds.
Further, 48% of spread tickets are taking the points with the Texans at home as well.
But when it comes to the sharps, they’re laying the points with Lamar Jackson and Company on Christmas Day.
This spread sat at Baltimore -3.5 as recently as Monday before smart money came flowing in on the Ravens.
Specifically, wiseguys steamed Baltimore on multiple occasions thus far, explaining why oddsmakers have been motivated to push this spread out to -5.5.
Steam refers to sudden, uniform line movement across the market that is often the result of bettors with the resources and respect to move odds getting down on the same wager at multiple sportsbooks, all at once.
