Ravens 31, Dolphins 14: “For the first time since maybe the beginning of the season, there’s genuine confidence that the Ravens are both the better team on paper and can perform that way come game day. They’re healthy and, most importantly, Jackson is back under center. Miami’s defense has been one of the worst in the NFL this season. And, despite a surprisingly strong showing versus Atlanta, this short week poses a tough challenge against an inspired Ravens offense.” |
| Brian Wacker |
|
Ravens 27, Dolphins 13: “Lamar Jackson’s return ratchets up a Ravens offense that has found its footing in the running game the past couple of games, and while there could be some rust in his first action in more than a month, the two-time NFL Most Valuable Player is a major upgrade in the passing attack and has usually delivered in prime time. Miami’s defense has also been exploited on the ground and through the air this season.” |
| Josh Tolentino |
|
Ravens 24, Dolphins 21: “Baltimore is 0-2 on the road, although John Harbaugh has never started a season 0-3 in away contests. Expect a tighter game than most anticipate, but Jackson’s presence should steady the visitors sideline as Baltimore escapes the Week 8 matchup at Hard Rock Stadium to build its first win streak of the season.” |
| C.J. Doon |
|
Ravens 33, Dolphins 13: “This could finally be the moment for Ravens fans to sit back and relax. Lamar Jackson is back and is sure to put on a show before friends and family in his native South Florida. The Dolphins are severely banged up on defense, especially in the secondary, which means we could see a repeat of Jackson’s 2019 performance against Miami that featured a perfect passer rating.” |
| Bennett Conlin |
|
Ravens 38, Dolphins 17: “This feels like a possible statement game for the Ravens, at least internally. Beating the 2-6 Dolphins won’t spark fear into the rest of the NFL, but it could remind Baltimore how dominant it can be when everything clicks into place.” |
| Tim Schwartz |
|
Ravens 34, Dolphins 24: “Lamar Jackson is back, and so should be the Ravens. They aren’t the Super Bowl favorite they were before they melted down in September and most of October, but they are healthier than they’ve been since before Week 1 and now have Jackson back under center. Against a bad and beat-up Dolphins team, that should be enough.” |

Ravens 27, Dolphins 17: “Tua Tagovailoa is playing better ahead of facing an improved Baltimore pass defense, but the biggest problem will be Miami's run defense against Derrick Henry.” |

Ravens 27, Dolphins 17: “I think this will be about Derrick Henry running it for the Ravens. The Dolphins played well in beating the Falcons last week, but this will be much tougher. Ravens take it.” |
