This is a great spot for the Browns coming off their bye playing at home on Monday night football and I expect to get their best effort in this game. On the flip side the Ravens are in a terrible spot off a last second win in a game where they lost quarterback Joe Flacco and running back Justin Forsett for the season. With a 3-7 record and now without their starting quarterback and running back, the Ravens officially know that this is a lost season. For a veteran team that had high hopes entering this season after a good run in the playoffs last year where they had the Patriots on the ropes, they can’t be very inspired to go and play the Browns in what is essentially a meaningless game. Flacco’s replacement, Matt Schaub, is well past his prime and will have trouble moving the ball in this game – since the beginning of the 2013 season Schaub has just 10 touchdown passes (2.7% touchdown pass rate) to go along with 16 interceptions (a terrible 4.4% interception rate). With a subpar rush offense that has only averaged 98 yards at 4.0 ypr against teams that allow 110 yards at 4.3 ypr that will likely be worse than that (back-up Javorius Allen has been .3 ypr worse than Forsett), Schuab and the Ravens offense is going to struggle. On top of that, their offensive line has not played well and is also banged up – starting center Jeremy Zuttah went on IR last week (prior to going down, Zuttah had graded out as Pro Football Focus’s #8 center), and this past week left tackle Eugene Monroe and left guard Kelechi Osemele didn’t finish the game and it looks like they’ll miss this game. Let’s not forget that they lost top wide-out Steve Smith a few weeks ago. With all of the injuries they have to deal with this offense is going to have some problems in this game.
On the other side, Cleveland will start Josh McCown after another Johnny Manziel fiasco, but he is clearly their best quarterback with 11 touchdowns and a very good 4.6% touchdown rate (and just and 4 interceptions with an excellent 1.6% interception rate). In addition, McCown torched this Ravens secondary for 457 yards in the Browns 33-30 win back in Week 5 in Baltimore.
Adjusting for the loss of Flacco and Forsett, and with McCown in for Cleveland my model projects a 7.9 point Browns win. I don’t have any situations that apply to this game but I like the spot and with all of the personnel adjustments, I like the Browns minus the short number.

Raphael Esparza (VSI)'s Picks For NBA Basketball
4 Unit Play. Take #502 Miami -3 over Boston (7:35 p.m., Monday, Nov 30)
Miami has had great success this season at home winners of 8 out 10 home games. Heat are coming off a big road against the Knicks Friday night and the Heat are riding a 3-games home winning streak. Boston has had some struggles on the road and tonight in South Beach I see that grabbing another easy home winning streak. Boston is 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games and the Heat are 5-1-1 ATS in their last 7 Monday night games.
Allen Eastman's Picks For NBA Basketball
3-Unit Play. Take #502 Miami (-3) over Boston (7:30 p.m., Monday, Nov. 30)
Miami is an underrated team in the East right now. They are 10-5 on the season and this is a quality team. The Heat have won four of five and that includes a pair of blowout wins over the Knicks. I think the Heat will do the same to the Celtics here. Boston is just 3-4 in its last seven games and just 2-5 ATS. They are not playing well after their nice pair of road wins at OKC and Houston. The Celtics have been blown out in their three road games since then, losing by an average of almost 18 points per game! And that includes losses at Brooklyn and Orlando. There is a strange trend in this series. The underdog has covered 10 straight times! I don't think that streak is going to be able to continue and this one should be all Miami. Play the Heat.
2-Unit Play. Take #508 Milwaukee (-4) over Denver (8 p.m., Monday, Nov. 30)
This is a revenge game for the home team. They lost 103-102 as a three-point underdog up in Denver just a few weeks ago. I think they will even up the season series in this one. Milwaukee has lost three straight and six of their last seven games. But five of those losses cam eat home. This is a completely different team when they are at home. The home team has won five of the last seven in this series. The Bucks are favored even though they are playing on a second night of a back-to-back. And this spread opened at 3.5 and was bet up to 4.0. The sharp money is on the hosts in this one. I like the Bucks to get it done here.

3-Unit Play. Take #53 N.Y. Rangers (-1.5, +140) over Carolina (7 p.m., Monday, November 30)
The Rangers are suffering through their first three game losing streak of the season but Christmas came early with the Hurricanes coming to the Garden. They have beaten down the Canes in recent matchups winning seventeen of eighteen. NY won in blowout fashion on November 10th 3-0 to get their 10th straight win over Carolina riding the netminding of King Henry in the shutout. The Rangers have outscored the Hurricanes 30-9 during the ten game home wining streak and tonight should be no different. Take the Rangers to easily win this one in what most likely will be another shutout.
Best of luck.

6 Unit Play. Take #521 LSU -5 over College of Charleston (7:00 PM, Monday, November 30)
The LSU Tigers will look to break their two game losing streak when they take on the College of Charleston Cougars at the TD Arena in Charleston, SC on Monday night. LSU has posted a 19-7-2 ATS record in their last 28 games following a straight up loss and they have gone a lights out 12-2-2 ATS in their last 16 games where they faced a team with a winning record. The Cougars, on the other hand, have struggled a bit in the spot they are in here tonight as they have gone just 4-9 ATS in their last 13 games following a straight up win and they have failed to cover in eight of their last ten non-conference games. Throw in the fact that Charleston is an awful 9-24-1 ATS in their last 34 home games where they faced a team with a losing record on the road and we'll lay the points here with LSU to get the road win and cover as we think their size inside will be just too much for Charleston to handle on Monday night.

6 Unit Play. Take #2557/2558 Vancouver Canucks vs. Anaheim Ducks Over 5 -125 (10:05 PM, Monday, November 30)
Two teams that have been trending to the over will meet on Monday night when the Vancouver Canucks travel to take on the Ducks at the Honda Center in Anaheim, CA. Ryan Miller (7-7-6, 2.48 GAA, .913 save %) will get the start in goal for Vancouver and he will be opposed by Frederik Andersen (4-7-4, 2.54 GAA, .914 save %), who is expected to get the call between the pipes for the Ducks. The Canucks have posted a 5-0-3 record to the over in their last eight games after they scored two goals or less in their previous contest and they have gone an excellent 8-3-6 to the over in their last 17 games overall. The Ducks have been an over team as well in the spot they are in here tonight as they have posted a perfect 4-0-2 record to the over in their last six games where they faced a team from the Western Conference and they have gone 5-1-3 to the over in their last nine home games. Throw in the fact that the Ducks have also gone 4-0-2 to the over in their last six games where they played with two days of rest and that's where we'll have our play in a game between two teams that we think are going to try and push the pace in Anaheim on Monday night.
