Ravens vs Colts
This AFC matchup is key for both teams trying to stay in the hunt in their respective divisions. The Ravens are in a three way tie atop the AFC North. The Browns and Bengals appear to be contenders for the duration of the season, so every game and win will be key for the Ravens. The Colts have gotten off to a rockier start. They are 1-3, but that only puts them a game back of the Titans atop the division. The Colts have dealt with injuries combined with a tough schedule as they started 0-3. They finally got in the win column in Miami last week and will look to keep that rolling.

Player Prop Pick: Michael Pittman Over 53.5 Receiving Yards and Over 4.5 Receptions
โ It has not been widely broadcast, but Michael Pittman has taken over as the Colts clear cut top wide receiver. After seeing just four targets leading to just three catches in Week 1, the role has expanded considerably. In the three games since, he has seen a total of 32 targets, converting those to 20 catches for 250 yards. He has had at least six catches and at least 59 yards in each of those games. It should also be noted Pittman had 12 targets in each of the two games the Colts were trailing and lost, which is exactly what the game’s betting line projects here.
โ The Ravens defense has not been as daunting as in recent years. Losing Marcus Peters for the year just before the season started was surely not a help there. While teams have not run laps on the Ravens from a passing game perspective, they have allowed a 60+yard wide receiver in each of their games thus far. With Pittman being the only Colts receiver to see consistent volume and output consistent yardage, he is the clear choice to be that player on Monday Night.
โ There is one other Colt to take a look at from a player prop perspective. Jonathan Taylor’s rushing yardage prop is set at just 59.5 yards. With Nyheim Hines banged up, it stands to reason that Taylor could see his largest workload of the young season. In his last two games, Taylor is averagaing 6.4 yards per carry on 26 total carries. At anything in a double digit carry window at that rate of production, Taylor should go over that total.
