Pundit Projected Winner Commentary
Sam Cohn
Ravens 21, Packers 17: “Do I feel confident in this pick? No. But a Ravens win, prolonging their playoff chances by about 15 hours, wouldn’t be the most surprising thing to happen this season.”
Brian Wacker
Packers 20, Ravens 13: “It won’t even matter who plays quarterback in this one for either team. The obituary for the Ravens’ disappointing season will be written by Saturday night with a lot more at stake for Green Bay than Baltimore.”
Josh Tolentino
Packers 27, Ravens 14: “Backup quarterback Tyler Huntley has orchestrated some memorable wins in his tenure, but the Ravens’ season has been on life support since October, and it’s only a matter of time until the coffin door slams shut.”
C.J. Doon
Ravens 17, Packers 16: “The Packers can still climb as high as the No. 2 seed in the NFC with a win Saturday night and some help, which is no small accomplishment. The Ravens are the more desperate club in this situation, however, and that should give them the slight edge.”
Bennett Conlin
Packers 23, Ravens 17: “This game probably doesn’t belong on prime time. Both teams are banged up, including at the quarterback position. The Packers seem to have the more competent bunch this fall. Last week felt like the end of Baltimore’s hopes and dreams.”
Tim Schwartz
Ravens 21, Packers 17: “The Ravens still have to win this game to keep their playoff hopes alive and will be relying on Tyler Huntley against one of the top defenses in the NFL. No easy task. But the Packers could be playing their third-string quarterback. The Ravens get a few turnovers, get enough from Huntley, and a lot from Derrick Henry to keep those dreams alive for another night.”

Dan Parr
Packers 20, Ravens 19: “This is a hard game to pick because, as of press time, we don't know if Jordan Love (concussion) or Lamar Jackson (back) will play. They are dealing with ailments suffered in heartbreaking defeats last week, cloaking this matchup in uncertainty. I'd like the Ravens' chances if Jackson were close to his usual, game-breaking self, but it doesn't seem reasonable to expect that kind of performance from him as his injury-plagued season trudges on. I'm giving a slight edge to the Packers at home, but I don't have a good feel on what to expect.”

Pundit Projected Winner Commentary
Vinnie Iyer
Packers 20, Ravens 17: “The Packers may need to roll with Malik Willis, while the Ravens might need to with their capable backup, Tyler Huntley. That means the running games and defenses will come more into play. Green Bay is more put together and executing with the right personnel and scheme in those areas than Baltimore.”

Pete Prisco
Packers 24, Ravens 20: “The Ravens have to have this one or they are done. This is tough to pick, with the QB injuries, so I will go with the home team.”
Jared Dubin
John Breech
Packers 24, Ravens 17: “Since Matt LaFleur took over the Packers' head coaching job in 2019, Green Bay has gone 11-1 in December home games. He does NOT lose on the frozen tundra of Lambeau Field. LaFleur is almost better than Santa at delivering in December.”

Mike Florio
Packers 24, Ravens 17: “Green Bay gets closer to a playoff berth, and the Ravens start thinking about possible changes for 2026.”
Chris Simms
Packers 24, Ravens 20: “I don’t think Baltimore’s offense is going to be able to move the ball consistently on this Green Bay defense, which is still damn good without Micah Parsons. And I think as the game goes on, Green Bay will be able to crack the code on the Ravens defense.”
