PUNDIT	PROJECTED WINNER	COMMENTARY
Childs Walker	Ravens	Ravens 30, Giants 13 “The Ravens won’t move the ball as easily against a talented Giants defensive front as they did against the Jaguars. But the Giants don’t convert on third down, and they don’t finish drives in the end zone. So they won’t keep up with Lamar Jackson and the Ravens, who know they must win out to have a good chance at the postseason.”

Michael David Smith	Ravens	Ravens 27, Giants 20 “The Ravens are still a dangerous team in the postseason. The Giants might make the postseason, but they won’t be dangerous.”
Mike Florio	Ravens	Ravens 30, Giants 17 “This Super Bowl XXXV rematch will end up the same way, primarily because the Ravens have found their groove again.”
Chris Simms	Ravens	Ravens 21, Giants 13 “I think [the Giants] are going to slow down the Ravens’ attack. I just don’t expect a lot from the Giants offense.”
