Will the Ravens Flock to Victory? Analyzing Baltimore Ravens Win/Loss Season Odds

Previous Betting News

While the NFL has yet to release its 2023 schedule, the league has released who everyone will play in the upcoming season. It’s always interesting to take a look at a team’s opponents prior to the season. The schedule we will now dissect belongs to the Baltimore Ravens.

The storyline surrounding the Ravens this offseason has been the Lamar Jackson saga. The Ravens placed the franchise tag on Jackson, and he has refused to sign it. It is rumored that he turned down a huge guaranteed contract a year ago, and now that offer no longer stands.

We will now give you a brief betting Home/Away analysis of each of the Ravens opponents for the 2023 season before the NFL odds to win the Super Bowl go out.

Baltimore Ravens: 28th season in the NFL
Owner: Steve Bisciotti
Head Coach: John Harbaugh
Home Field: M&T Bank Stadium | Baltimore, Maryland

2023 Baltimore Ravens Home Games

We will first take a look at their AFC North foes. Obviously, the Cincinnati Bengals are predicted to be the best team in the North. With a stellar offense, along with one of the best defenses in the league, the Bengals should be one of the top teams in the NFL this season.

The Pittsburgh Steelers are in rebuild mode. Kenny Pickett will be in his second season, and he does have some nice offensive weapons. Mike Tomlin always seems to find a way to win, though. If Deshaun Watson returns to form, the Browns will be strong, but if he plays like he did last season, they’ll be a mediocre team.

The Ravens host the Miami Dolphins this season. The Dolphins have an offense loaded with weapons. They also brought in Vic Fangio to shore up the defense, so Miami should be very good this season. Seattle will also be another strong opponent that the Ravens will host.

The Detroit Lions are an up-and-coming team as well. Dan Campbell turned the franchise around, and now the Lions are predicted to be a playoff contender. The rest of the Ravens’ home schedule will see them hosting rebuilding teams like the Los Angeles Rams, Indianapolis Colts, and Houston Texans.

2023 Baltimore Ravens Away Games

Besides the AFC North games, their toughest road game will be against the San Francisco 49ers. San Francisco should have one of the top defenses in the league once again, along with a very strong offense. This should be a very interesting matchup.

Another strong opponent that the Ravens will see on the road is the Jacksonville Jaguars. The Jags were a playoff team last year and are the favorites to win the AFC South this season. We will see if Trevor Lawrence and the Jaguars take the next step this season.

Justin Herbert and the Los Angeles Chargers will also host the Ravens. There are a lot of question marks surrounding the Chargers, but as long as Herbert is there, this will be a contending team.

The rest of the road schedule for the Ravens consists of the Arizona Cardinals and the Tennessee Titans. Both of those games are very winnable games for the Ravens.

2023 Baltimore Ravens Draft Picks

How many draft picks do the Bengals have in 2023? They own five picks in the next NFL Draft.

2023 Baltimore Ravens Home/Away Final Analysis

The oddsmakers have set the Ravens’ win total at 8.5. The obvious question to ask is whether or not Jackson will be a Raven. If he is, we see them winning more than the 8.5. If he’s not, we’re not sure what direction they’ll go.

Although big things were predicted for the Baltimore Ravens in the 2021 season, things just didn’t work out. Injury issues played a big part in the Ravens finishing the season 8-9 and not making the playoffs. 

Now that everyone is healthy, the Ravens are expecting a return to the playoffs this season. With another season under Lamar Jackson’s belt, the experts think that the Ravens could be a playoff team. Let’s take a brief look at what’s on tap for the Ravens this season so you can plan your bets against their NFL Team Totals odds.

Can the Ravens Rebound? | NFL Betting

Can They Get to 10 Wins?

Now that the oddsmakers have released the projected win totals, everyone is looking at them to see if their team is expected to make the playoffs. Las Vegas has set the Ravens projected win total at 9.5. We’re not sure if they can get to 10, especially with the schedule that they’ll have to play.

Even though they have a very winnable game in Week 1 against the New York Jets, things get a little rough from there. Weeks 2-5 looks like a murderer’s row. In Week 2, they host the much-improved Miami Dolphins. They then take a trip to New England to take on the Patriots. In Week 4 and 5, they’ll stay at home, as they host two of the AFC’s top teams in the Buffalo Bills and Cincinnati Bengals.

After their tough stretch, they get a little break as they play the New York Giants. After their trip to New Jersey, they’ll host the Cleveland Browns. Then they have a tough two-game stretch on the road, as they head to Tampa Bay and then to New Orleans to take on the Saints.

After their bye week, they get another respite as they play the Carolina Panthers and Jacksonville Jaguars. Their season ends with the Denver Broncos, two games with the Pittsburgh Steelers, another game with Cleveland, a date with the Atlanta Falcons, and a season-ending clash at Cincinnati.

With this schedule, it’s going to be hard for the Ravens to get to the 10-win mark. They’ll need to stay healthy, and they’ll need to catch some breaks along the way.

A Questionable Offseason?

One move that the Ravens made in the offseason that surprised everyone was the trade of top receiver Hollywood Brown to the Arizona Cardinals. Even though they acquired a first round pick in this year’s draft for Brown, it left the Ravens without a top receiving threat. The Ravens are hoping that former first-round pick Rashod Bateman can take the next step.

The Ravens are expecting running back J.K. Dobbins to be fully healthy to start the season. He’ll be a huge boost to the offense. On the defensive side of the ball, they’re hoping that the addition of top pick Kyle Hamilton will help shore up a defense that was never healthy last season. 

Is this a Playoff Team?

We’re looking at a 9-8 season for the 2022 Baltimore Ravens. Even though Lamar Jackson is hard to prepare for, we still don’t have a lot of confidence in his passing game. This season he is void of a lot of offensive weapons, so that will make it even tougher for him. 

Even though this defense is healthy this season, we don’t think that they can lead the Ravens to more wins. It’s going to be back to the drawing board for John Harbaugh and the Baltimore coaching staff after the 2022 season.

We are still waiting on all the NFL training camps to open across the country, but most of us already have a pretty clear idea as to who we will believe the Super Bowl contenders will be this season. Of course, surprises happen, and dark horse teams always seem to emerge, but for the most part, the teams that we expect to be very good usually deliver the goods. At this point of the proceedings, it’s always fun to look at individual teams and try to predict whether they will go over or fall under the win total that the bookies post at the start of the season. With that in mind, let’s take a look at the Baltimore Ravens schedule for the coming season so you can plan your bets against their NFL Team Totals odds.

Baltimore Ravens Win/Loss Betting Odds and Prediction for the 2021-22 Season

Ravens Divisional and Playoff Chances

Back in 2019, the Ravens won 14 games but saw their playoff race end at the first hurdle. They took a bit of a step back last season, although 11 wins is certainly not a bad season. That said, it wasn’t enough to win the AFC North, with the Steelers winning the division. This season, the expectation is that the Steelers will take a step back, which means you have to like the Ravens chance of landing on top again, although the Cleveland Browns will have something to say about that.

It would seem that the bookies agree with that assessment, as they have the Ravens in as the favorites to win the North at +135, with the Browns really close. I would certainly think that the Ravens are good for double-digit wins this season, but we will dig a little deeper into their schedule in the next section. This is a team that looks good enough to go all the way, but this is just about the regular season win total, so let’s break that down.

Ravens 2021 Schedule and Win Total

Based on the records of teams from last season, the Ravens have a tough road ahead of them in 2021, as they have the 2^nd hardest schedule in the league. You would like them to win in the opening game of the season against the Las Vegas Raiders, but things get much tougher in Week 2, as they will face the Kansas City Chiefs. That will be a good early test and will show us just where this teams stands against the best in the AFC.

They have a much more manageable stretch after that, with winnable games against the Lions and Broncos, but then things get tough again, with the Colts and Chargers up next. From Week 12 on is when the Ravens will get their toughest test of the season, as their schedule gets very tough from that point forward. They will have 4 games against the Browns and Steelers, as well as matchups against the Packers and Rams in there. It’s a brutal stretch of games that could set the Ravens up for a deep playoff run if they can win a bunch of those games.

The bookies have the Ravens win total set at 10 ½, which, given their strength of schedule, should give you an idea of just how good this team could be. I think the OVER is a very good bet here, as I think Baltimore could win 12 games this season.

The Baltimore Ravens head into the 2019 NFL Regular Season after making the playoffs in 2018. The Ravens have high hopes. So far, odds makers are chilly on Baltimore winning more than 8 games. Will the Ravens go over their total regular season wins of 8 ½? Or, will they go under? Keep reading for Baltimore Ravens total regular season win odds, analysis, and a free pick!

Baltimore Ravens 2019 NFL Win/Loss Total Odds & Predictions

Baltimore Ravens 2019 NFL Schedule

Why Ravens over 8 ½ is a good bet?

Baltimore significantly improved their offense. The Ravens signed running back Mark Ingram away from the Saints. Ingram averaged 4.7 yards per carry last season. He also caught 21 passes for 170 yards while splitting time with Alvin Kamara. Ingram has been a featured back in the past, though. He’s a huge upgrade for a team that already ranked second in rushing yards per game with 152.6.

Not only did the Ravens sign Ingram, they also drafted wide receiver Marquise Brown. Brown, Antonio Brown’s cousin, tore it up catching passes from Heisman Trophy winner Oklahoma quarterback Kyler Murray in college. Brown instantly upgrades the wide receiver position.

Quarterback Lamar Jackson didn’t post eye-popping stats, but he didn’t throw a ton of interceptions. Jackson should be even better this season.

Why Ravens under 8 ½ is a good bet?

While the Ravens significantly improved the offense, they suffered some losses on defense. Three starters are no longer with the team: LB Z’Darius Smith, LB CJ Moseley, and OLB Terrell Suggs. Strong safety Eric Weddle’s departure makes it four.

The Ravens did pick up Earl Thomas, Seattle’s former free safety. Thomas heads into the season off an injury, though. If Thomas returns to his best form, he’ll be one of the top free safeties in the NFL. If he doesn’t, he’ll be a bust in Baltimore.

Baltimore Ravens 2019 Regular Season Win Final Analysis

The Ravens’ hopes rest on the defense. If Baltimore can cobble together a defense that can handle the Steelers, Browns, and Bengals, the Ravens could win the AFC North Division. If the defense falters, the Ravens could end up winning 6 or 7 games.

So, which is it? Will John Harbaugh put together a decent enough defense for a run at the AFC North title? He will. Baltimore has had turnover on the defensive side of the football before. Every time it’s happened, Harbaugh’s found a way to put together a defense that plays at a high-level.

This season should be no different. Add in the likely possibility that the offense wins a few shootouts due to its improvement and suddenly we’ve got a 9 or 10 game winning team. Over 8 ½ is the play on the Baltimore Ravens.

If you’re an NFL betting enthusiast that likes making long-term and potentially bankroll-boosting props odds bets and you’re planning on betting on the regular season win total odds surrounding some of the league’s 32 teams, then you’re in luck. Thanks to my expert betting analysis and prediction on the Baltimore Ravens’ regular season victory total, you’re going to have an excellent opportunity to cash in on Baltimore’s win total odds.

While the Baltimore Ravens blew a golden opportunity to make the playoffs by losing their regular season finale at home a year ago, Baltimore is hoping to get back in the postseason in a big way in 2018 and it could very well happen. Let’s find out what’s going to go down as I offer up my expert pick on every game on Baltimore’s 2018 schedule.

Baltimore Ravens 2018 NFL Win/Loss Odds Prediction

Baltimore Ravens Win Total Odds – 8.5

Week 1 vs. Buffalo Bills

Baltimore has gone 5-1 in six regular season home openers at M&T Bank Stadium and they’ll get the easy home win over a Buffalo Bills team that has question marks at quarterback with either unproven veteran, A.J. McCarron or second-year signal-caller Nathan Peterman. Win. 1-0

Week 2 at Cincinnati Bengals

Baltimore will be looking to extract some revenge for their season-ending loss to Cincinnati that kept them out of the playoffs last season, but they won’t get it – at least not in this Week 2 road date against their AFC North division rivals. Joe Flacco has thrown 13 picks against just six touchdowns in nine road dates against Cincy. Loss. 1-1

Week 3 vs. Denver Broncos

If veteran quarterback Case Keenum can come close to repeating his career year with the Vikings from last season, the Broncos could soar in 2018. However, I’m not sure about that and I think the Broncos blew it in a big way by letting Wade Phillips walk a couple of years ago. Win. 2-1

Week 4 at Pittsburgh Steelers

Sorry, but the Ravens just won’t be their longtime division rivals on the road in this Week 4 matchup at Heinz Field. Loss. 2-2

Week 5 at Cleveland Browns

The Browns made some serious upgrades this offseason and I believe we will see it pay dividends in this Week 5 divisional matchup at home. Loss. 2-3

Week 6 at Tennessee Titans

The Titans have gone 10-2 in their last 12 home games at Nissan Stadium, including a 23-20 win over Baltimore last season. Marcus Mariota leads Tennessee to the hard-fought win in this one! Loss. 2-4

Week 7 vs. New Orleans Saints

Future Hall of Fame superstar quarterback Drew Brees has never beaten Baltimore in his career, but guess what MYBookie NFL betting buffs? That little known fact changes in this Week 7 road date. Loss. 2-5

Week 8 at Carolina Panthers

The Panthers have gone a robust 18-5 in their last 23 home games with cam Newton under center. They’ll get the win again against a Ravens team that I expect to be offensively-challenged again in 2018. Loss. 2-6.

Week 9 vs. Pittsburgh Steelers

The Ravens got swept by the Steelers during the regular season a year ago but sheer desperation will lead them to the narrow home win in this Week 9 divisional clash. Win. 3-6.

Week 10 BYE

Week 11 vs. Cincinnati Bengals

After getting knocked out of the playoffs last season and then losing to Cincinnati in their Week 2 meeting, Baltimore will finally get the revenge they’ve been seeking against the Bengals. Win. 4-6.

Week 12 vs. Oakland Raiders

The Ravens won in Oakland last season, but Derek Carr missed that contest and Jon Gruden was still in the TV booth. Oakland will make a game of this contest, but the travel to the east coast will bite them in the butt. Win. 5-6.

Week 13 at Atlanta Falcons

Matt Ryan is going to show Joe Flacco a thing or three about how to actually play quarterback in the NFL! Atlanta holds it down at home in this Week 13 matchup. Loss. 5-7.

Week 14 at Kansas City Chiefs

Baltimore has gone 20-8 against rookie or second-year quarterbacks under coach John Harbaugh, but I like the strong-armed Patrick Mahomes to lead Kansas City to victory at Arrowhead Stadium in this one! Loss. 5-8.

Week 15 vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers

If I’ve said it once, I’ve said it a million times, Tampa Bay made a major mistake by not firing lame-duck head coach Dirk Koetter after last season’s nightmare campaign. Win. 6-8.

Week 16 at Los Angeles Chargers, TBD

The Chargers have some realistic playoff expectations and arguably the best pair of defensive linemen in football, not to mention they just look like a different bunch under head coach Anthony Lynn. The Bolts win what will be a huge Week 16 home date! Loss. 6-9

Week 17 vs. Cleveland Browns, 1:00 PM ET

The Ravens have beaten  the Browns in nine of their last 10 home matchups and this regular season finale will almost assuredly be another. Win. 7-9.

As you can see, I’ve got Baltimore playing under their 8.5-game win total odds. I will admit that is’ quite possible that Baltimore manages to win one more game, but I just don’t see a nine-win season coming in 2018. Play the Under.

Previous Betting News

Every NFL team comes into the new season with some amount of pressure, but there are definitely some teams who will be feeling the heat more than others. The Baltimore Ravens have missed the playoffs in back to back seasons, and a third straight season without the postseason could well mean that a coaching change may be in the offing.

The Ravens are in the AFC North, and will likely be dueling with the Bengals for second place, as we expect the Pittsburgh Steelers to be the class of the division. The bookies have set the Ravens season win total at 8.5, so let’s take a look at their schedule to see if they will go OVER or UNDER that number. Find out more about the updated NFL win total predictions here.

2017 NFL Win/Loss Odds Analysis and Betting Prediction for Baltimore Ravens

Baltimore Ravens Regular Season Wins (2017 NFL Season) O 8½ -135 U 8½ +105

Ravens in September

The Baltimore Ravens open their season on the road with a divisional game against the Bengals in a match-up that could well set the tone for the rest of the year. Both of these teams are under real pressure to make the playoffs, and I think it will be the Bengals who get the win in this one.

Things get a good deal easier in Week 2, as the Ravens will welcome in the Cleveland Browns. This should be an easy win for the home team. Baltimore looks to have another manageable game in Week 3, going on the road to face the Jaguars.

Ravens go 2-1 in September.

Ravens in October

The Ravens start October with a home game versus the Pittsburgh Steelers, and we are giving them the nod at home. Week 5 is a tough one, as it involves a trip to California to face the Raiders. This looks like a loss for Baltimore by our estimation.

It should be an easier game for the Ravens the following week, with the Chicago Bears coming to tow. Chalk up win #4 for the Ravens. It’s back to a tough game the following week with a trip to Minnesota to face a very tough Vikings defense in a game that I believe will end in a loss for the Ravens.

October ends with a Thursday night game at home to the Dolphins, which I think will be a win for the Ravens.

Ravens go 3-2 in October, taking them to 5-3 on the year.

Ravens in November

Week 9 sees the Ravens head to Tennessee to face the Titans in what may be a pivotal game this season. The Titans are going to take another step forward this season, and I think they win this game. That game is followed by a bye week, after which it’s another tough game against the Green Bay Packers at Lambeau.

A tough month of November continues for the Ravens with another loss. November comes to a close with a home game against the Texans, and while this one will be tight, it should be Baltimore who get the win.

Ravens go 1-2 in November, taking them to 6-5 on the season.

Ravens in December

December begins with a visit from the Detroit Lions, and that is a game that they should be able to win at home. Next up is a Sunday night game on the road in Pittsburgh, and I think it will be the Steelers who come away with the W in that one.

It’s an easier game in Week 15, with a road trip to Cleveland to face the Browns in what should be another win for Baltimore. It’ll be a short week, as the Ravens will play on Saturday, welcoming in the Indianapolis Colts, which should be a win.

The final game of the season will be a must win for the Raven and the Bengals, and I think Cincinnati spring the mild upset on the road. Moreover, that puts the Baltimore Ravens at 3-2 in December, and 9-7 on the season.

Conclusion

I like the Ravens to go slightly OVER the 8.5-game total for the season, which may be enough to get them into the Wild Card, although it may come down to a tie-breaker with the Bengals, who I believe will finish the season with a similar record.
