4* Free Week 18 NFL Betting Prediction: Baltimore +4
The Steelers are favored in Week 18 against the Ravens due to uncertainty surrounding Lamar Jackson’s potential absence. Ravens coach John Harbaugh has not yet decided if Jackson, the NFL MVP favorite, will start in a game that holds no significance for Baltimore.
Baltimore secured the AFC North title and the top seed in the conference, granting them a playoff bye, after a dominant 56-19 win against the Dolphins.
Meanwhile, the Steelers have pulled off two consecutive wins as underdogs, positioning themselves favorably for a potential Wild Card playoff spot.
Baltimore has been on a strong streak, going 5-1 against the spread (ATS) and winning all 6 of their last games (SU). They’ve also performed well within the AFC, winning 5 out of 6 games (SU) and covering the spread in 5 out of 7 matchups in the AFC North.
I see them as the best bet to cover the spread for this week, with the line at +4.
So far, all of Baltimore’s games have had over/under lines higher than this week’s line of 37.
For this matchup, I’m taking the over as we have this game projected to finish with 46 points.
The total has gone OVER in 4 of Pittsburgh’s last 5 games, and in 5 of Baltimore’s last 7 games. Additionally, at home, the total has gone OVER in 5 of Baltimore’s last 6 games.
If Harbaugh sits everyone of importance on the Ravens roster you have to remember they’ve been good for 30+ points EVERY game at home this year it seems, I still think they’d be good for 24. The Steelers could put that up too. So I love the OVER no matter the roster.
