Mims' Monday Night Football Picks: Ravens vs Saints, Lamar Jackson, Alvin Kamara props, over/under, more

The Ravens are rested and have added linebacker Roquan Smith.

The Monday Night Football Game has the Baltimore Ravens against the New Orleans Saints. The Ravens are first in the AFC North at 5-3 and the Saints are 3rd in the AFC South at 3-5. The Ravens are favored by 1.5 and the total is 46.5. The money line is -120 for the Ravens and +100 for the Saints.

Head Coach Match Up: Ravens Head Coach John Harbaugh has the edge over Saints Head Coach Dennis Allen.

Player Props: Lamar Jackson under 210.5 passing yardage. This bet is priced at -117. Jackson has been under his projected number 4 of his last 5 games. Take him under. Alvin Kamara over 62.5 yards rushing. The Price is -115. Kamara has exceeded 60 yards in 4 of his last 5 games. Take him over.

The Consensus: 66% of the money is being wagered on Baltimore. 58% of the action is on under.

The Selection: The Ravens have been off for 10 days since their win over Tampa Bay. The extra time and the addition of Roquan Smith gives them two of the best off-the-ball linebackers in the NFL. The Saints have scored more than 24 points in each of their last 5 games.  The Ravens win a high scoring game that goes over.
