The Bills have an upcoming clash that might be the highlight of the NFL’s next slate of games in Week 14.
Not many predicted the Bills (9-3) and Ravens (10-2) would have the records that they have heading into this game.
Alas, here we are, potentially battling for the top spot in the AFC at New Era Field. With such an important matchup in mind, let’s update ourselves on the opponent.
Here are eight things to know about the Bills’ Week 14 opponent, the Ravens:
Lamar a potential MVP?
The easiest place to start on the Ravens is exactly where everyone’s mind is. Quarterback Lamar Jackson.
Like Buffalo’s Josh Allen, Jackson is a dual-threat quarterback but in a much flashier sense. Both players are tough to bring down. Allen has the big body while Jackson has the elusiveness of Michael Vick. With those skills, Jackson leads the Ravens in rushing this season with 977 rushing yards, to go along with 2,532 passing yards. In total, Jackson has 25 passing touchdowns, seven rushing scores, six fumbles and five interceptions. It will be the first Lamar-Josh meeting at quarterback, too.
It’s hard to put into words how good Jackson is. He’s the current frontrunner for the MVP race and the Ravens are the only offense in the NFL to have scored more than 400 points (406) so far this season. Yes, that is good and yes he did this just last week:
