ESPN gives the Ravens an 82% chance of winning. 

Dallas hasn't played since Thanksgiving, so they'll have had extended rest.

If the Ravens are going with a similar Roster thar they had Wednesday, they lose.

If Dobbins/Lamar is back and they feed him, I think that goes up to 50/50. Hopefully they do.

If Lamar is back, they have a 50% chance of beating one of the worst teams in football?

Extended rest for a sorry team, doesn't help too much.

 

They just got pounded by that no name team.

 

I think they are so bad, even RG3 leading them, can beat them. :)

The Ravens are on such a slide right now that I'm not going to assume anything. They will have almost no time to practice in full, and Dallas has had lots of rest and time to prepare. 3 weeks ago we thought it was a foregone conclusion that they were going to obliterate NE, and they got taken to school.

Overlook teams at your own peril.

I do like your last statement

 

Some people were expecting a blowout in Pittsburgh, and they had a chance.

 

Cowboys are nothing close to a good team, right now, they arent many worse teams.

 

Can they beat the Ravens, of course they can.

 

But, I was a betting man, I would bet on the Ravens, 24-9

No one is overlooking Dallas but its silly to say its a toss up with Lamar.

The way the Ravens are playing right now, no game is safe. I don't care who the opponent is.

Exactly. Everyone is thinking this game is a foregone conclusion win. The way they've played lately I wouldn't be confident against anyone aside from maybe the Jets.

I'm not sure many people are picking the Cowboys to beat the Jets right now either, though.

Wildly unfair description of the opinions I've seen here about this game.

Certainly doesn't feel that way. Nobody seems concerned in any way assuming Lamar goes.

I'm happy to take you up on the 50-50 if Lamar plays for the Ravens.

I don't understand. How can you quantify a win probability?

I would be willing to bet that people don't think the Jets would beat the Cowboys.

Every bet quantifies a win probability.

50/50 is even money.

I guess that makes sense. I don't gamble, as you can see. I still feel like that is a faulty system though. The outcome could go either way, and it wouldn't change the fact that the win probability could still be 50/50. The only way to truly quantify it would be to play the game 100 times in a row, which is of course impossible.

Either way, what I wanted to bet to begin with was that people believed that the Cowboys would beat the Jets if they played.

In other words, you're trolling and don't really believe its a coin flip if Lamar plays.
