Ravens 27, Broncos 23 “What looked like a sure win when the schedule came out feels like anything but for the Ravens given Denver’s all-around defensive strength and Bo Nix’s rapid improvement at quarterback. The Ravens have made almost every opposing quarterback look good, and they can’t just count on their offense to light it up against the league’s No. 3 scoring defense. That said, they’re easily the best team the Broncos have played, and they’ll come out with some urgency after losing in Cleveland. Sometimes, it really is just about which team has the better quarterback. Lamar Jackson will be the difference late in a rugged matchup.” |

Ravens 27, Broncos 20 “So as salty as the Ravens must feel in letting last week's divisional bout slip away, past precedent suggests they'll rebound on Sunday. The only thing that gives me pause is the ‘DNP’ next to Lamar's name on Wednesday's injury report.” |

Ravens 26, Broncos 23 “The Broncos are fielding a sound offense with dual-threat QB Bo Nix playing well, channeling his inner Lamar Jackson. Now, he gets to face the actual Lamar Jackson in a big game for both playoff hopefuls. Nix and Sean Payton will keep Denver in it with some good passing and pass defense, but in the end, Denver's front will be worn down by Derrick Henry.” |

Ravens 27, Broncos 17 “This is surprisingly one of the better games of the week. The Broncos are 5-3, thanks to the defense. But Bo Nix is improving each week. The Ravens can score on anybody, so that's a challenge for the Denver defense. I think Lamar Jackson and the offense get it going again and the defense plays better than it has the past few games.” |

Ravens 24, Broncos 16 “In their eight games this season, the Broncos are 5-1 when they rush for at least 100 yards and 0-2 when they don't. The problem for the Broncos is that they'll be facing a Ravens team that has surrendered more than 100 yards just ONE time in eight games this season. If the Broncos are going to have any chance in this game, they're going have to be able to run the ball and they're going to need their defense to slow down Lamar Jackson and Derrick Henry. I don't think either of those things will happen.” |

Ravens 24, Broncos 20 “The Denver defense is phenomenal, and I do feel like the Ravens a little bit have fallen back into, ‘We’re gonna throw the ball every play.’ They definitely got into that trap last week.” |
