Prediction
The Baltimore Ravens could have a six-game winning streak if they hadn’t blown leads against Miami, Buffalo and the Giants. Lamar Jackson will be without Mark Andrews, one of his most important pieces in the passing game, but New Orleans will be without its best cornerback. Although New Orleans is growing at home, the Ravens’ defense could be the key with turnovers.
