Pittsburgh Steelers Vs. Baltimore Ravens Predictions
USA TODAY Sports

The Baltimore Ravens travel to Pittsburgh to face their AFC North rivals. The division's top teams will compete in one of the NFL's most historic rivalries. In this new chapter of the Steelers vs. Ravens, here's how our writers predict the matchup will end:

Christian Marshall: Ravens 28 - Steelers 24

The last eight games between these two teams have been decided by seven points or less, and I don’t expect this game to be different. I think the defense plays their best game of the season and forces takeaways from a boom-or-bust Steelers offense.

Prediction Record: 5-3

Bryce Parker: Ravens 28 - Steelers 23

Divisional games are always close, and Lamar has a losing record against the Steelers. However, he has Derrick Henry in the rushing attack, which will differ from the previous matchups. Defensively, this team should not scare Baltimore with a flurry of explosive plays, which has been their Achilles heel this year. If they can keep Pickens from having a career day, they should limit Pittsburgh to just 20 points.

Prediction Record: 2-2

DJ Harding: Steelers 24 - Ravens 21

In a tough AFC North Battle in Pittsburgh, despite Jackson and the Ravens' incredible season, the Steelers will get the best of them at home behind their defense and the trio of Wilson, Harris, and Pickens.

Prediction Record: 5-3

Jayden Armant: Steelers 20 - Ravens 17

The Steelers have had Jackson's number in the past, and he last won against them in 2019. Like most battles between these two, it will be a close matchup and far from a blowout. However, unlike any other team in the league, Pittsburgh has the formula for limiting Jackson's production. I think the Steelers' defensive unit will limit the Ravens, while their rejuvenated offense will do enough to move against a struggling Baltimore defense.

Prediction Record: 2-4
