NFL Week 12 2022: 3 teams on upset alert this Sunday

1. NFL Teams That Should Be On Upset Alert In Week 12 – Baltimore Ravens

There wasn’t a bigger line on the board in Week 11 than the 13 points Baltimore was favored by against the Carolina Panthers. The game was surprisingly tight most of the way as the Ravens ended up winning 13-3, needing a late touchdown run from Lamar Jackson to get past a bad team at home.

While Baltimore is securely on top of the AFC North, it has been tough to buy into this team since their offense has been maddeningly inconsistent for weeks. Part of this is due to the fact that Jackson has cooled off significantly after his red-hot start to the season, going from an MVP-caliber performance to one that is good enough to win in most weeks.

The Ravens hit the road in Week 12 to take on the Jacksonville Jaguars, who are coming off of their bye and will have had extra time to get ready for this game. Jacksonville is just 3-7 but has a ton of talent and the propensity to get involved in close games with six of their seven defeats coming by one possession or less.

That recipe is a dangerous one for a Baltimore team that has been teetering on the edge of a loss for a few weeks now. The Ravens will need to play a more crisp brand of football if they want to avoid getting tripped up in Jacksonville on Sunday.
