5) What’s your final score prediction, and which Rams players have the biggest positive and negative impact on the final score?
I think Rapp and Donald are going to have a big impact on this game. Limiting the production by the Ravens’ tight ends is key, and that’s something Rapp and Marqui Christian can do. And pressuring Jackson without blitzing is also critical for the Rams, and there’s no one better equipped to do that than Donald and Dante Fowler Jr. On the flip side, I think Goff is going to struggle. The Ravens’ secondary is so good, and it’s going to cause problems for the Rams QB. He’ll probably turn the ball over at least once, and it could prove to be a costly one.
As for my prediction, I think the Ravens win this one, but it’ll be fairly close. Ravens 31, Rams 24
