5 bold predictions for Broncos against Ravens
By Scott Rogust
1. Teddy Bridgewater continues turnover-less streak
The Teddy Bridgewater trade looks better by the week for the Broncos. After seeing the quarterback position turn the ball over constantly throughout the 2020 season, the Broncos are seeing safe play from Bridgewater.
This season, Bridgewater has yet to throw a single interception or fumble the ball. That is certainly impressive, considering he has been under pressure this season. In fact, Bridgewater has a passer rating of 111. 9 this year when being pressured by the defense. Just look at the passer ratings of Denver’s quarterbacks Drew Lock, Jeff Driskel and Brett Rypien last year, according to Pro Football Focus.
Per @PFF, Teddy Bridgewater's passer rating when pressured is 111.5, the fifth-best in the league.

Last year, these were the ratings of the Broncos' QBs when pressured:
Driskel: 42.6
Rypien: 27.0
Lock: 26.2
Bridgewater will continue his turnover-less streak this Sunday, as he faces a Ravens pass defense that has surrendered 314.7 yards per game to opposing quarterbacks, per ESPN. Even with the hits taken at the wide receiver position, Bridgewater should still be able to succeed for the fourth-consecutive week.
