Bill Speros said bettors should play the under on the 51.5-point total despite both clubs erupting in Week 2. He noted Detroit’s 52-point outburst against Chicago and Baltimore’s 41-17 drubbing of Cleveland will inflate public expectations, but pointed out two contrasting factors: (1) Detroit owns the NFL’s best ATS record over the last three seasons, yet traditionally struggles outdoors and in prime-time road spots, and (2) John Harbaugh teams historically slow the game when protecting leads at home. Speros called the matchup 'the NFL’s Bridesmaids Bowl'—two franchises that tease preseason futures bettors—arguing that recency bias has pushed the number too high and that the market has not accounted for likely conservative scripts once initial adrenaline wears off.
