Jacksonville Jaguars (5-2) at Baltimore Ravens (4-4)
Almost forgot about this NFL game tonight. So let me do this quickly.
The Jaguars just earned their most impressive and complete win of the season last weekend against the Colts.
Meanwhile, the Ravens received probably the worst news of their season last weekend during a loss to the Bengals. Lamar Jackson may end up being out for the rest of the season.
It sure seems like he will at least not be in the lineup for tonight's game. Given how quickly he got injured in last week's game, it feels like it would be very risky for them to even consider putting him in the lineup even for a single play.
That means that the struggling Ravens likely will struggle some more. That a once promising season now appears to be on life support.
The way that Baltimore has been playing lately, it feels like they may see their season spiral out of control, and not even come close to competing for the postseason.
As for the Jaguars, they are playing very well. Better than I thought that they would be playing at this point. They seem to have the AFC South locked up, and are looking for positioning among the top teams in the AFC. So they still need to win, having every incentive to do so.
Tonight, I expect them to earn a win against the reeling Ravens. Not as convincingly as they won last weekend. But yes, the Jaguars should be able to win this one tonight.
My pick: Jax
