Ravens vs Jaguars Prediction 11/5/26 NFL Picks Today

Ravens vs Jaguars Prediction 

Jacksonville comes into this game after winning four of their last five games and they are a big favorite to win, but they will be on the road here. The Jaguars have allowed 17 points or fewer in four of their last five games and they have scored 31+ points in three of those five. Baltimore has lost three games in a row and they have been outscored 71-23 in their last two. The Ravens will be using their third string quarterback and they have scored 13 points or fewer in three straight games. This is a ton of points to cover on the road, but I can’t back Baltimore with everything they are dealing with. Take Jacksonville to cover here.

Positive Trends

When looking at the trends in this game, I am comfortable backing the Jaguars. Jacksonville tends to start fast when playing on the East Coast, which will be critical in controlling the game. Baltimore has a few trends pointing in their favor, but the third string quarterback really nullifies most of those. Take the Jaguars on the road here.
