Pundit Projected Winner Commentary
Sam Cohn
Ravens 40, Jets 13: “Now a .500 team again, this would be the week for the Ravens to prove they can dominate.”
Brian Wacker
Ravens 27, Jets 13: “Even if Lamar Jackson isn’t fully healthy after hamstring, knee and ankle injuries have cropped up this season, and despite a struggling red zone offense, the Ravens have more than enough firepower on offense to handle the hapless Jets, who traded away their two best defensive players earlier this month.”
Josh Tolentino
Ravens 27, Jets 10: “The Ravens should have more than enough to grind out their fifth straight win Sunday even with Jackson battling through several lower-body issues that have clearly limited his burst and willingness to run.”
C.J. Doon
Ravens 26, Jets 13: “For the Ravens’ sake, this win shouldn’t be as difficult as last week’s. Lamar Jackson needs a break, so look for Baltimore to make the offense as easy as possible and keep him out of harm’s way. Perhaps we finally see Derrick Henry eclipse 30 carries for the first time in a Ravens uniform. Rushing for 200-plus yards would be a nice way to silence all the criticism of the offensive line.”
Bennett Conlin
Ravens 31, Jets 14: “Baltimore should do what it can to limit Jackson’s rushing attempts and hits taken, as there are few scenarios in which the Ravens actually lose this game. The focus needs to be keeping Jackson out of harm’s way with a short week coming up. The running game, quick passes and defense should be plenty to pick up a win without needing Jackson’s heroics.”
Tim Schwartz
Ravens 28, Jets 10: “Lamar Jackson is beat up and Baltimore barely got past the Browns last weekend, but this is the Jets we’re talking about. Jackson at half of his ability is enough for the Ravens to beat New York at home, though I wouldn’t be surprised if Tyrod Taylor looks better than Justin Fields has for the past few weeks.”

Kyle Goon
Ravens 31, Jets 13: “Let’s not outsmart ourselves here. The Jets are terrible. They have one of the worst defensive DVOAs in the NFL and just traded two of their best defensive players. Whatever is ailing the Ravens offense should work itself out, especially because the Jets have yet to get an interception this season. The stars are aligned for even the maligned offensive line to have a better performance and perhaps draw more consistency from Lamar Jackson.”
Giana Han
Ravens 35, Jets 17: “Sure, this could be a classic trap game, especially with a divisional game following it, but I’d like to think the disastrous win over the Browns served as enough of a wake-up call. This is a great get-right opportunity for the offense against a team that’s given up 300 yards or more in seven of 10 games.”
Paul Mancano
Ravens 27, Jets 14: “Like the Browns were a week ago, the Jets will be relying on turnover luck and voodoo magic. The Browns nearly pulled it off last week, so it’s not ridiculous to think it could happen again. Here’s the problem: They’re last in the league with a minus-11 turnover differential. As for voodoo magic, it’s, well, the New York Jets.”
Jonas Shaffer
Ravens 27, Jets 10: “Even if Jackson struggles with his ankle injury, the Jets don’t have enough firepower to get any decent defense on its heels. A rejuvenated home crowd should help pull the Ravens through early-game struggles.”
Chris Korman
Ravens 29, Jets 11: “I reckon the Ravens will probably lose one more game they should not (and then really have to work to get into the playoffs), but this won’t be it.”
Brandon Weigel
Ravens 23, Jets 14: “The Ravens are banged up. Quarterback Lamar Jackson is dealing with an ankle injury, and safety Kyle Hamilton, inside linebacker Roquan Smith, tight end Isaiah Likely and left guard Andrew Vorhees were all limited in Thursday’s practice. The offense’s performance against Cleveland doesn’t inspire a ton of confidence that it will blow the doors off any opponent. But come on, it’s the Jets.”

Ali Bhanpuri
Ravens 28, Jets 16: “Unless Will McDonald IV and Jermaine Johnson II can successfully fluster [Lamar Jackson] like Myles Garrett & Co. managed last Sunday, and the Jets' second-level defenders avoid taking the bait on run fakes (an area in which they've struggled), I think the Ravens' rushing and play-action attack will consistently and convincingly do damage (even with Lamar not 100 percent). The Jets’ QB change could give their pass game a bit more juice, but I'm not sure New York has the playmakers (beyond Breece Hall) to keep pace with Baltimore.”

Vinnie Iyer
Ravens 31, Jets 10: “The Ravens get the reduced version of the Jets' defense coming to Baltimore and will welcome that after Lamar Jackson was roughed up in Cleveland. Jackson needs a get-well game and Derrick Henry also goes back to doing his 2024 damage. The Ravens' defense [gets] another break vs. a limited offense.”

Pete Prisco
Ravens 30, Jets 13: “The Jets are making a change at quarterback with Tyrod Taylor in as the starter. Does it really matter? The Ravens [have] won [four] straight to right things as they push the Steelers in the division. The offense still hasn't played great, but I think this is the game for Lamar Jackson to get back to looking like himself after his hamstring injury a few weeks back. Ravens win it.”

Mike Florio
Ravens 24, Jets 14: “Tyrod Taylor returns to Baltimore, and Lamar Jackson is sufficiently banged up to allow the Jets to keep it within the [13.5-point spread].”
Chris Simms
Ravens 31, Jets 17: “I’m going to bet [the Ravens offense] gets on track this week and there’s just too much balance for the Jets defense.”
