The Baltimore Ravens will be looking to record their second straight win by taking down Jacksonville in their Week 10 NFL betting matchup on Sunday, but cashing in against the suddenly feisty Jaguars likely won’t be a walk in the park. Now, let’s find out if the Ravens can bring home the bacon and avoid another embarrassing loss in what has already been a season full of them for Baltimore.
Quarterback Joe Flacco completed 25 of 37 pass attempts for 319 yards and one touchdown and the Ravens overcame three touchdown passes from Philip Rivers to get the win. Flacco engineered the game-deciding drive in the final two minutes, leading Baltimore to position to strike before kicker Justin Tucker nailed a game-winning 39-yard field goal with three seconds remaining.
“Joe Flacco made plays under duress,” Ravens coach John Harbaugh said. “He always plays that way, but he stepped up today and made some plays that were phenomenal football plays that great players make.”
Unfortunately, the Ravens suffered a huge loss when veteran wide receiver Steve Smith tore his Achilles tendon late in the third quarter, effectively ending his career after he announced his retirement following the 2015 campaign. Baltimore ranks 15th in scoring (23.8 ppg) and 25th in points allowed (26.8 ppg).

Jacksonville (2-6 SU, 4-4 ATS)
The Jaguars put up a great effort but suffered a narrow 28-23 loss to the New York Jets in Week 9 though they covered the NFL betting line as 7.5-point road underdogs to improve to 2-0 ATS over their last two games. The Jaguars out-gained the Jets by a whopping 436 yards to yards, 290 but couldn’t overcome four costly turnovers, including three in the fourth quarter while failing to force a single turnover from the Jets. “We just didn’t finish,” Jaguars head coach Gus Bradley said. “You look back at it, really, a lot of these were self-inflicted — the turnovers and the penalties at inopportune times.” Quarterback Blake Bortles completed 24 of 40 passes for 381 yards with two touchdowns and two interceptions. “We put up a ton of yards, did a lot of good stuff,” said Bortles. “But it’s the plays you missed out on that you think about at night — the ones you didn’t make when you had a chance to make it and hopefully put up more points.” Wide receiver Allen Hurns had five catches for 121 yards and one touchdown while fellow wideout Allen Robinson added five catches for 122 yards. “There’s lessons from wins — I’d like to be up here talking to you (saying) ‘Hey, we can learn these from wins,'” Bradley said. “But we’ve got to learn these lessons from losses as well.” The Jaguars rank 22nd in scoring (21.2 ppg) and 30th in points allowed (29.4 ppg).Baltimore (2-6 SU, 1-6-1 ATS)
