Ray Rice RavensThe Baltimore Ravens and Cleveland Browns are set to continue the 2012 NFL season, and as a part of our analysis of the Week 4 betting lines, we are taking a look at some of the best NFL props on the board for this crucial Thursday Night Football matchup.

Team to Score First: You really never see us playing NFL props like this one, but we really like the idea of playing on the Browns to score first at least 40% of the time in this game. Baltimore really should just come out and dominate, but how on earth can it be expected to do that from the get go just basically 96 hours after taking down the New England Patriots in such dramatic fashion in one of the most emotional games of the year? The Browns have been chomping at the bit to get out and play this game to prove that they can indeed play with the big boys in the AFC North, and they might be throwing the whole book at the Ravens right away to try to slip one past this defense. This just feels like a game in which Cleveland finds a way to get on the scoreboard first, though it probably won’t have a legitimate impact on the game. Cleveland Browns Score First (+175)

Joe Flacco Over/Under 21.5 Completions: This is just a bad line in our eyes. Flacco has been running this no huddle offense, and he has thrown the ball a whopping 81 times over the course of his last two weeks. Now, he gets to play the Browns, who don’t have their best cover corner in the lineup, and that means that he should get to pick on the corners once again. Sure, RB Ray Rice will get his carries, but he’ll also get his receptions, and that means that Flacco is going to be putting the ball in the air quite a bit. We just don’t see how more often than not, he isn’t going to complete at least 22 passes. Remember that Flacco is on a clip right now to complete nearly 400 passes this year. Joe Flacco Over 21.5 Completions (-115)

Trent Richardson Total Rushing Yards Over/Under 57.5: This is a rough one for the rookie out of Arkansas. Richardson is a great back, and he has a whole heck of a lot of potential, but this Baltimore defense is vicious. That being said, asking Richardson to get to just 58 yards shouldn’t be all that much, knowing that he does have one of the best offensive tackles in the world to run behind in Joe Thomas. The Browns are committed to the run come hell or high water on a weekly basis, and that means that Richardson will have to average likely no more than 3.0 yards per carry to be able to get the job done with this prop. That’ll be tough against the Ravens, but we think that he’ll find a way to get the job done more often than not. It’s a precarious play at best, though. Trent Richardson Over 57.5 Rushing Yards (-115)
