As divisional games ramp up, we have a nice matchup between the top two teams in the AFC North. The Baltimore Ravens are traveling to Pittsburgh and playing the Steelers in what should prove to be a gritty game. The AFC North games never disappoint, and if you want to bet on it, use our link and get some sweet bonus bets. Here is what you should know.
The Steelers have looked alright so far this season. Kenny has definitely struggled, but he might be out this weekend with an injury that would make Mitch Trubisky the starter. Absolutely something to keep your eye on. While the passing game has been weak, the run game has been really weak and Najee Harris looks like a shell of his former self that took the league by storm a few years ago. George Pickens seems to be turning into a star, and honestly, Kenny does have some weapons here like the now-injured Diontae Johnson, Jaylen Warren, Calvin Austin, and Pat Freiermuth. Defensively they have also struggled, but that front is still very scary and TJ Watt is a baaad man to go up against. Will that be enough to beat Lamar Jackson and the Ravens?
If you ask me I would say probably not. I just think the Ravens are a much more complete and well-rounded team. They score more points and allow less, ranking 12th in points per game scored and 3rd in the entire league in points allowed. This Ravens’ rush offense is special and man have the Steelers had a hard time stopping the run so far. Lamar has been a stud, throwing for 4 touchdowns and only one pick with a season rating of over 104 which is pretty solid. Zay Flowers is proving to be a great pickup and by far is leading his team in receiving yards. Losing JK Dobbins was a blow, but Gus Edwards and Lamar have still been able to move the ball on the ground very well. They also have one of the best defenses in the league backing them up, a defense that has already forced a ton of turnovers with four interceptions and two forced fumbles through there first four games. I don’t care that they’re on the road, give me the Ravens in this one.
