Ravens vs. Bills Predictions
—
Best Bet
The Ravens are one of our top picks to win the Super Bowl, and although starting with a game against the Bills on the road isn’t easy, it’s an excellent early test.
There is a lot of hype around the Bills and Josh Allen, but the Ravens have more depth, and we believe Lamar Jackson is a better quarterback. The Ravens play some of their best football early in the year, and the Super Bowl favourites could set the tone early.
Money is likely to come for the Ravens, who are joint favourites at $1.92. That’s a fair price, and it could firm to around $1.80 on game day.

Same Game Multi
Derrick Henry is a big threat to score a touchdown. The Ravens’ running back is the $1.80 favourite to score, which is a good price for the big man. The former Titans RB has been good since moving to Baltimore, and he should have a big impact.
We’re also picking Josh Allen in our NFL multi bets. We have Allen rushing for under 31.5 yards. He’s considered a solid runner of the ball, but we can’t see the Ravens’ defence giving him enough room to move.
Under 50.5 points is included in NFL picks this week because we see the final score being 26-20. They are good offensively teams, but the defence should stand up, so include it in your picks.

Best Value Bet
Jackson scores touchdowns with his legs, and he could fake a handoff to Henry and stroll into the end zone. It’s a tried-and-tested play for the Ravens, who disguise the QB run well, and Jackson is the best running quarterback in the NFL.
Punters get $3.25, which is an excellent price for Jackson to score a touchdown at any time during the game.
