Baltimore Ravens vs Philadelphia Eagles Prediction 

Philadelphia rolls into this matchup on a seven game winning streak and they are playing some great football right now. The Eagles are gashing teams on the ground with Barkley and Hurts, while Brown is making huge catches down the field. Baltimore also has a great offense, but their defense has not been very good this season. Philadelphia definitely has the defensive advantage in this game, but I just think it is too tough to go into Baltimore and win in December. Take the Ravens here.
