Ravens Preview
One of the most impactful offseason moves was the signing of Derrick Henry, who delivered in a big way against the Bills, racking up 199 yards and a touchdown on 24 carries. Lamar Jackson also had an efficient day, completing 13 of 18 passes for 156 yards and two touchdowns. Justice Hill led the receiving corps with six catches for 78 yards and a touchdown.
The Ravens are averaging 26.5 points per game, while their defense is allowing 22 points per game. Offensively, they rank 5th in the league, but their defense sits at 19th. A key concern for Baltimore is the status of Ronnie Stanley, who is dealing with a back injury. If he’s unable to play, it would be a significant blow to the Ravens' lineup.
Bengals Preview
The Bengals offense seems to have found a rhythm, especially with Chase Brown, who rushed 15 times for 80 yards and two touchdowns. Ja'Marr Chase also made an impact, hauling in three receptions for 85 yards and a touchdown.
This season, the Bengals are averaging 25.5 points per game, but their defense has been a concern, allowing 26 points per contest. Offensively, they rank 9th in the league, while their defense is struggling, sitting at 27th. In this upcoming game, the Bengals' defense will need to step up and find a way to put pressure on Lamar Jackson to keep things competitive.

Ravens Road Success:

- Both teams come into this game with their offenses firing. The Bengals are coming off a 34-24 win over Carolina, where Joe Burrow looked more comfortable, and they got solid production from Ja’Marr Chase and Chase Brown. The Ravens, led by Lamar Jackson and Derrick Henry, also have big-play potential, making this game a potential shootout
Betting Trends:
- The line opened with the Ravens as 1-point favorites but quickly moved to -2.5 after their impressive Week 4 win. The total points line has also risen from 48.5 to 51, suggesting that many expect a high-scoring game
My Bengals vs Ravens AI Prediction
Both offenses have shown their strengths this season, but the Ravens' defense finally came to life in their last game, and they should carry that momentum into this matchup. While Joe Burrow improved in his most recent performance, his season has been marked by inconsistency, making it difficult to fully trust him in this game. The Ravens’ defense has the potential to disrupt Burrow's rhythm and capitalize on his struggles
