#453/454 ASA TOP PLAY ON 10* Under 39.5 Points – Denver Broncos vs Baltimore Ravens, Sunday at 1 PM ET - Denver hasn’t reached 17 points in 9 of their 11 games and they’ve gone Under the total in 10 of their 11 games this season. Their games have stayed Under the total by 111 total points this season! They rank last in scoring offense and 4th in scoring defense and Denver games are averaging just 32 total points this season. Only 22.7% of their offensive possessions have either reached the red zone or scored prior which is lowest in the league. The Broncos have also punted on almost 51% of their possessions which is the highest rate in the NFL. The Baltimore defense has been solid allowing just 20.8 PPG and they rank 9th defensive DVOA (per Football Outsiders) so we don’t see Denver’s offense having much success. Some on the other side. The Ravens offense is not overly explosive through the air with just 24 completions of 20 or more yards which is 3rd worst in the NFL. They are facing a Denver defense that has allowed more than 23 points only once all season and Baltimore loves to run the ball (6th highest run percentage in the league) which eats clock. Last week Baltimore was in a high scoring 28-27 loss @ Jacksonville (24th in total defense) but that game was 12-10 in the 4th quarter before the offenses went crazy. Denver games has reached 40 points ONCE this season and these teams have combined to go 17-5 to the UNDER this season. Another low scoring game here.
