Bills vs. Ravens Prediction and Pick
This game will feature two MVP frontrunners in Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson, so expect both offenses to explode. But, the Bills have one significant advantage over the Ravens. Their defense.
The Ravens rank 31st in the NFL in opponent yards per play, allowing teams to average 6.5 yards per play against them. Meanwhile, the Bills, for the second year in-a-row, have a top tier defense. They rank second in opponent yards per play at 4.1. That's right, Buffalo's defense is allowing 2.4 fewer yards per play than Baltimore's defense. That's a significant difference.
The Bills are especially good in defending he run, keeping teams to 2.8 yards per carry. Considering the Ravens get 35.58% of their offense on the ground, which is the 9th highest rate in the NFL, Baltimore could struggle to keep up with Buffalo's potent offense.
I'll back the Bills to get back on track with a win and cover.
