It’s tough to find positives for the Baltimore Ravens (4-4) heading into their game tomorrow night at MT&T Stadium against the visiting Jacksonville Jaguars (5-2).
Game time is 8:15 p.m. EST, with a forecast of 65 degrees F, cloudy with a possibility of showers.
With quarterback Lamar Jackson out indefinitely after suffering a right thumb injury in the team’s first offensive series Sunday against the Bills in Buffalo, the Ravens announced today that backup quarterback Tyler Huntley is out for the season with a turf toe injury to his right foot.
That leaves third-string quarterback Joe Fagnano to start tomorrow night against the Jags. Fagnano came on to replace Huntley against the Bills, completed two passes, and, frankly, looked like a third-string quarterback, going 10-for-21 for 91 yards and one interception.
The Ravens today acquired veteran quarterback Jacoby Brissett in a trade with the Arizona Cardinals.
ESPN now reports that the Ravens could consider trading running back Derrick Henry if they lose tomorrow night. The NFL trade deadline is Nov. 10.
Key matchups for tomorrow night: Henry against the Jacksonville run defence, for one.
I don’t understand the Ravens’ usage of their stud running back in the past few games – 53 yards on 11 carries in the 36-10 loss to the Bills, 45 yards on 17 carries in the 35-13 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals, 58 yards on 17 carries in a 13-10 loss to the Cleveland Browns. With their quarterback issues, I have no idea why the Ravens aren’t running him at least 25 times per game.
They’ll need him tomorrow night to take pressure off Fagnano.
The Jaguars lead the NFL in rushing defence, allowing just 77.4 yards per game. Among the Jaguars’ injuries, though, is DT DaVon Hamilton, out with a knee injury, and that could create an opportunity for Henry tomorrow night.
Jaguars’ quarterback Trevor Lawrence vs Baltimore’s secondary is another key matchup. Lawrence is in the MVP conversation (+900 in NFL picks at Betway), and enters tomorrow’s game with 17 touchdown passes, just four interceptions, and a 112.6 passer rating. Baltimore’s secondary is allowing 228.3 passing yards per game.
The Jaguars are coming off a 42-7 win over the Indianapolis Colts,
Here are my Jaguars vs Ravens picks.
Jaguars vs Ravens Odds
In NFL betting at Betway, the Jaguars are heavy -500 moneyline favourites, while the Ravens are listed at +375. Jacksonville is favoured by 9.5 points (-115), with Baltimore at +9.5 (-105). The total is set at 39.5, with the Over priced at -115, and the Under at -105.
Can Jacksonville justify that price, or can the Ravens keep things competitive enough to cover?
Jaguars vs Ravens Betting Trends
According to Sports Illustrated, Baltimore is 2-6 against the spread this season and are 0-3 ATS at home, making that 9.5-point home underdog status interesting.
Jacksonville, on the other hand, is 4-3 ATS this season and has covered its only previous game as a favorite of 9.5 points or more – last week against the Colts.
Baltimore is 7-13 straight up without Jackson in the lineup.
Jaguars vs Ravens Betting Picks
Take the Under 39.5 (-105), considering the Ravens’ injuries. Jacksonville has a solid defence, and while they can score, a low-to-moderate total is more realistic than a shootout, in my opinion. Too soon to get Brissett in there, obviously. And if Baltimore leans on Henry, that will keep the clock moving.
I’m also leaning Jacksonville -9-5 (-115), looking at their demolition of the Colts last weekend, the Ravens’ injury situation, and a Jags’ defence that has given up just 15.0 points per game.
That’s a big number, but the Jaguars have the personnel to cover that.
Also, Henry will get a lot of touches, so take the Over 68.5 rushing yards at -115. Henry is averaging 79 rushing yards per game this season, and Baltimore has every reason to establish its ground game early. I saw enough of Fagnano against the Bills last Sunday.
Despite the anomaly of the last three games, Henry leads the NFL with 159 carries through eight games.
Jaguars vs Ravens Same Game Parlay Picks
A three-leg parlay of Jags moneyline, Lawrence 200+ passing yards and Parker Washington 40+ receiving yards pays -120 at Betway. Lawrence can reach 200 without having a huge night. This is actually overly safe.
A 5-leg parlay of Jaguars moneyline, Lawrence 200+ passing yards, Lawrence Over 1.5 passing touchdowns, Washington 40+ receiving yards, and Brenton Strange 3+ receptions pays +230, if you are feeling a little friskier.
