The Baltimore Ravens are battling with the Kansas City Chiefs today, and someone will have to get in the end zone to break the deadlock of these stellar defenses. Can Odell Beckham Jr. be the guy to start off the scoring? Ben Rajavuori likes him to score a touchdown in his top prop pick for Chiefs vs. Ravens.

There are only a few NFL games left this season (three), so naturally, we have to throw a few Hail Mary's and take a few long shots to end the season on a good note. The Ravens and Chiefs are playing for a spot in the Super Bowl in a very interesting matchup in Baltimore today, and I have a long shot for someone to get in the end zone and also be the first one to do it.

Kansas City Chiefs vs. Baltimore Ravens Prediction
My long shot is Odell Beckham Jr. to score tonight. Odell is the veteran of the Raven's receiving corps who also happens to have the most postseason experience. He has won a Super Bowl before, and he happened to have a touchdown in that Super Bowl win in 2021.
OBJ has had a slow season on the Ravens. He has just 35 receptions for 565 yards this season, but he hasn't needed to be a star in this offense. Zay Flowers has been excellent as a rookie receiver, and the Raven's rushing attack has been the star of the show, led by the probable MVP Lamar Jackson. However, OBJ has postseason experience and I expect him to be targeted in the red zone when they get there.
OBJ only has three touchdowns this year, but he is second on the team among wide receivers with 11 red zone targets, behind only Zay Flowers. With Mark Andrews back, I expect the elite Chiefs' secondary to have eyes peeled on Flowers and Andrews every time in the red zone, which will leave OBJ with some one-on-one opportunities. Flowers is only +190 to score and Andrews and +200, but he is also coming off the IR and may not be 100% still. The Value lies with Odell Beckham Jr. here, who had no touchdowns over his first six games this season, but finished with three over the last eight games of the regular season.
