Ravens @ Buccaneers More or Less
Recommended Pick:
Tom Brady more than 284.5 passing yards and Lamar Jackson less than 209.5 passing yards
This may be an unpopular selection, but it makes a ton of sense given the matchup and Brady's recent trends. Although the Bucs and Brady have been scuffling, he has thrown for more than this total in three of his previous four contests while averaging more than 48 attempts per game over that span. The Ravens have struggled against the quarterback position as well as they have allowed the fourth-most passing yards to the position on the season.
Jackson has a surprisingly tough matchup in this one as the Bucs have allowed an average of just 196 passing yards per game to the quarterback position over the previous four weeks, which ranks eighth-best in the league. Jackson's weapons have also been limited in practice this week and Mark Andrews, as well as Rashod Bateman, is currently listed as questionable, although they are both likely to play. This is also a number that Lamar has eclipsed in just one of his previous four starts, and he barely accomplished that while throwing for 210 passing yards against the Giants in Week 6.

Ravens @ Buccaneers More or Less Contest
Recommended Pick:
Lamar Jackson more than 65.5 rushing yards and Leonard Fournette less than 50.5 rushing yards
Jackson should be in a solid spot in this game as far as rushing yards are concerned. The Bucs have been solid against the run when it comes to defending the running back position as they have allowed just 670 total rushing yards on the season.
That being said, they have allowed 116 rushing yards to the quarterback position over the previous four weeks, which ranks sixth-worst in the league over that span. Jackson will likely be the primary runner in this game, which should help him eclipse a total he has hit in three of his previous five games.
Fournette and the Bucs have struggled to run the ball lately as he has eclipsed this total in just two of his previous five games. As aforementioned, the way to go about attacking this Baltimore defense is through the air as they have allowed the ninth-fewest rushing yards to backs over the previous four weeks by allowing just an average of 80.5 yards per game. I expect the Bucs to come out and do just that in this one as well. Fournette is still likely in for a solid game, but most of it will likely come through the passing game.
