The Denver Broncos and Baltimore Ravens face off on Sunday in an NFL showdown at M&T Bank Stadium. When these two teams faced off in 2021 it was the Ravens that were able to secure the 23-7 victory.
The Broncos come into this game with a 3-8 record overall, and they have gone 3-8 against the spread. The offense has been an issue all season and in the last game the offense only scored 10 points, and that led to the 13-point defeat. Russell Wilson struggled, completing 19 of his 35 passes for 142 yards, one touchdown, and zero interceptions. Latavius Murray did have a strong game, rushing 13 times for 92 yards and zero touchdowns. Denver is averaging 14.3 points, while their defense is giving up 17.6 points per game. The defense is 4th best in the league, while the defense is ranked 32nd in the league.
On the other side of this matchup is the Ravens, who sit with a 7-4 record, and they have gone 4-6-1 against the spread. The Ravens have struggled since the bye, which was three weeks ago. Two games ago against the Ravens they were able to secure the 13-3 victory, and in the last game against the Jacksonville Jaguars they were defeated 28-27. The Ravens gave up 18 points in the 4th quarter, and that was the difference. Lamar Jackson completed 16 of his 32 passes for 254 yards, one touchdown, and zero interceptions. The Ravens are averaging 25 points while their defense is giving up 20.6 points per game.
The Ravens are 0-5-1 against the spread in their last six home games. The under is 4-0 in the Raven's last four home games. The under is 4-0 in the Bronco's last four road games.
This game is going to be low scoring. The Broncos' defense has been lights out heading into this game, and they are going to slow down the Ravens offense. I don’t think Wilson is going to magically get any better with his passing, and the Broncos are going to struggle here. Back the under to cash here.
