According to preseason predictions, two of the three AFC top-touted teams will face each other this Sunday night. Along with the Kansas City Chiefs, the Baltimore Ravens and Buffalo Bills are expected to be the three best teams in the AFC. We all know what happened the last time Baltimore and Buffalo met. This past January the Bills eked out a 27-25 victory over the Ravens in the divisional playoffs, only to lose in the Conference title game once again to the Kansas City Chiefs. Having said that, the Ravens did take a late-September home victory over the Bills, a convincing victory, 35-10. But that was last season, and this is this season. There’s a lot of talk about Baltimore’s “new-look” defense. We all know they had the top offense in the league last year, averaging over 424.9 yards per game. Lamar Jackson accounted for five touchdowns, and 120 rushing yards in the two games against the Bills last season. I feel he’s in for a huge game, both in the air, and on the ground here in this matchup. In the air, he goes up against a very suspect, and banged up Buffalo secondary, while on the ground, let’s face it Lamar Jackson legs are tough enough… throw into the mix all-universe ball-carrier Derrick Henry, and you have a true rushing attack. I look for the Ravens to exact some revenge from January’s playoff loss. I also look for their offense to absolutely light up the scoreboard here. The only reason why Buffalo is favored is because they are at home. Ravens get us all paid Sunday night, folks.
PICK: BALTIMORE RAVENS -1.0
