Ravens Determined To End Four-Game Skid

Baltimore was without its star quarterback, Lamar Jackson, and it certainly showed. The team scored a field goal on its opening drive and was shut out the rest of the way.

Although the game was tied 3-3 at the break, Los Angeles produced a pair of touchdowns in the third quarter on its way to a 17-3 victory.

Derrick Henry was the standout player for the Ravens, as he accumulated 122 yards on 24 carries.

Chicago's Defense Was Solid In Its Win Against The Saints

Going against an opponent with just one win on its resume could have easily been a trap game for the Bears. Fortunately, Chicago was determined not to take New Orleans lightly.

Thanks to a solid defensive effort, the Bears came out on top by a score of 26-14, marking the first time they have won four straight games since 2018.

Chicago's defense forced four turnovers, increasing its season takeaway total to 16. This unit also produced three interceptions, held the Saints to 3-for-10 on third down, and allowed just 253 total yards.

Ravens vs Bears NFL pick

Despite dropping their last four games, the Ravens enter this contest as a 6.5-point favorite. Here's a look at what you need to know for both teams ahead of this Week 8 matchup.

  • The Ravens are 13-3 straight-up (SU) in their last 16 games against NFC opponents.
  • Baltimore has covered the spread only once in its previous seven outings.
  • The Bears are 3-10 in their last 13 road games.
  • Chicago is 3-7 ATS in its previous 10 matchups against the Ravens.

Given Chicago's road woes and the fact that Jackson could be under center for Baltimore, the edge in this matchup goes to the home team.
