Ravens 24, Bills 17 “It will play out closer to how their last regular-season meeting did than the playoffs. Baltimore thrashed a Buffalo team that was without several defensive starters. Expect the Ravens to capitalize in similar fashion in this meeting, even if the scoreboard margin isn’t so wide.” |

Ravens 26, Bills 24 “Zach Orr's defense was one of the best in the league down the stretch last season and has historically had Josh Allen's number in the regular season. The reigning MVP's 67.7 career regular-season passer rating against the Ravens is his worst among the 14 opponents he has faced at least three times, per NFL Research. Matchups between league goliaths come down to the details, and Baltimore owns that slight edge despite what happened in January. This isn't about the Ravens getting revenge for that playoff loss – it's about them boasting perhaps the best roster in the NFL.” |

Bills 27, Ravens 24 “The Ravens are built well to contain Allen in the passing game, but his strong running game with James Cook and himself will be a more effective counter to Lamar Jackson and Derrick Henry on the other side of the road.” |

Bills 34, Ravens 31 “This is the premier game of the week, featuring two of the Super Bowl favorites. The Bills beat the Ravens in the playoffs last year, so Lamar Jackson and gang are looking for payback. I don't think they get it. Being on the road on a Sunday night for your opener is a tough thing to overcome, but it's really tough because of the opponent. Josh Allen and the Bills will win a close one.” |

Ravens 30, Bills 27 “Lamar Jackson in regular-season prime-time games is virtually unstoppable.” |

Ravens 30, Bills 21 “The Bills defense never stopped the Ravens in the playoff game. The Ravens stopped themselves. I don’t think they’re going to do that this time around.” |
