Ravens at Cardinals picks and predictions
Prediction
Ravens 28, Cardinals 13
Moneyline
The Cardinals have scored only 25 total points in their last 10 quarters of football. The Ravens have the No. 1 scoring defense at 13.9 points allowed per game and are No. 2 in total defense.
Arizona’s defense was better against Seattle last week but has allowed a 100-yard rusher in 4 of its last 5 games.
The Cardinals are abysmal in the 2nd half of games, having been outscored 104-30 this season.
The Ravens will win this game, but it isn’t worth the action at -500 odds. PASS.
Against the spread
The Cardinals have failed to cover the spread since Week 3. They are 3-3-1 ATS this season.
The Ravens have covered the spread in all 5 of their wins. Three of their 5 wins are by double digits.
If Jackson is at all close to playing the way he did last week, it will not be even close.
BET RAVENS -9.5 (-110).
Over/Under
After 4 straight games of hitting the Over, the Cardinals’ last 2 games have stayed under the projected total. Scoring points has been a problem since RB James Conner got hurt. He is on injured reserve for at least 2 more weeks, which means more struggles for QB Josh Dobbs and the offense.
The Ravens have seen the Over hit only twice this season.
BET UNDER 44.5 (-110).
