Baltimore will play the third and final New York State-based team this week, as it travels to the Meadowlands to take on the Giants. Both teams are coming off huge wins. The Ravens beat their AFC North rival, the Cincinnati Bengals, while the Giants knocked off Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers in London.

These teams come into this game riding high, playing old school football and racking up wins. Will their similar formulas be an advantage or a disadvantage in Week 6?

Ravens vs. Giants Prediction and Pick

Baltimore eked out a win on Sunday Night, but don’t expect Justin Tucker to have to save the day again. The Ravens, especially if their defense shows up the way it did against the Bengals’ high-powered offense, are in good shape to win and cover in this game. 

These are two of the best rushing teams in the league – with both ranking in the top 5 in yards per rush. Saquon Barkley is back to his pre-injury form and carrying the Giants’ offense. However, the Ravens have the clear advantage with Lamar Jackson under center. While both teams are great on the ground, it’s the passing game that will be the difference this week. 

Baltimore is selective when it comes to the passing game, only throwing the ball 29.8 times per game (25th in the league). New York throws the ball 27 times per game (29th in the league). However, the Ravens are top 10 in yards per pass, and the Giants are 30th. 

When it gets time to air the ball downfield, the Giants can’t do it. Yes, New York has a chance with a ball-control centered game, but Daniel Jones will limit the success the G-Men have.
