One of Walter’s bets today comes from the AFC North as the Ravens travel to Cincinnati, a matchup that has a lot of question marks as to who will and will not play.
Best Week 18 NFL Picks & Bets
“My analysis is going to be assuming that the NFL is not gonna make up the Bills-Bengals game, which sounds like it’s gonna happen. And if that’s the case, these teams will likely play each other in the opening round the playoffs. We might see Brandon Allen versus Anthony Brown here. But the Ravens I think look great at +7.5. And even without that in mind, if both teams play the starters, I still like the Ravens because this is another game where you have a good or a well-coached team playing their backup quarterback, Tyler Huntley.”
In what may be a battle of backups galore, Walter likes the Ravens as the team more capable of pulling out a win with their depth pieces.

Stokastic NFL Player Props Tool
Betting NFL player props are perhaps the most beatable odds that sportsbooks offer today. Most of these sportsbooks outsource their odds, and there are so many that they can’t get them all right. The way that sportsbooks tend to handle these bets is by limiting sharp bettors to small bets only while allowing lesser-skilled players to put huge bets down on losing bets. That means you should take advantage of these bets while you can.
The expected win probability is determined by comparing the Stokastic simulations against these prop lines to give you the probability that each bet will win and the long-term ROI you should expect on similar bets. These ROI’s are not necessarily designed to optimally calculate the percentage of your bankroll you should wager on each bet since some high ROI bets may be long shots – but they should give a great baseline for what bets should be profitable and which should be avoided.
