The Pittsburgh Steelers are riding a two-game road winning streak and finally get to come home to take on the Baltimore Ravens. Thanks to Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson’s injury status, the Steelers are favorites at home.

According to Tipico Sportsbook, Pittsburgh is a 1.5-point favorite at home over Baltimore. It sounds like the oddsmakers are banking on Jackson missing this week’s game with the knee injury he suffered against the Broncos.

If the Ravens announce Jackson is playing it will completely change the dynamic of this game. The Steelers have won the last four matchups. Baltimore last beat the Steelers in Pittsburgh back in 2019.

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson suffered a knee injury on Sunday versus the Denver Broncos that forced him out of the game. Baltimore held on to beat the Broncos 10-9 but Jackson’s status for next week’s game against the Pittsburgh Steelers is up in the air.

Ravens head coach John Harbaugh characterized the timeline as somewhere between “days to weeks” which leaves it wildly open to interpretation. The Ravens are a very different football team without Jackson in the lineup and facing Tyler Huntley instead would completely change the outlook on a huge matchup.

The Steelers improved to 5-7 on the season after beating the Atlanta Falcons 19-16 behind a strong performance by the Steelers defense and rushing attack.
