Seahawks vs. Ravens, Week 9: Pick against the spread
The Seahawks won their second straight outing last week with a commanding 24-9 win over the Kansas City Chiefs at home. Russell Wilson threw for a measly 114 yards, but he also logged three touchdowns in the process. DK Metcalf made his return to the field and saw a big share of those passes with 14 targets, but only caught five of them as he logged 67 yards on the day.
Lamar Jackson had a quiet game in Week 8 as well, throwing for 157 yards and one touchdown as he finished outside the top 20 QBs for the week. The Ravens still got the job done with a 31-24 win over the Cardinals as running back Gus Edwards went off for 80 yards and three touchdowns in Arizona. They’ve now won their last three straight and are looking to make a push for a four-game winning streak.
The Ravens should get the win at home, but the Seahawks have been playing well and it could be a close affair when all is said and done. I think Lamar Jackson and Baltimore take care of business, but I’m not sure I’m ready to say definitively that they’ll cover the spread. Take the Seahawks to cover at M&T Bank Stadium.
