Joe Burrow's Cincinnati Bengals are set to face arguably their biggest division rival on Thursday Night Football, the Baltimore Ravens. Lamar Jackson and the Ravens hope to build toward solidifying a place in the playoffs atop the AFC North.

That said, let's look at predictions, picks and other insights for the game.

The Baltimore Ravens have been surging since starting 0-2, now owning a 6-3 record. However, their biggest troubles have come from the AFC North. Their most recent loss came against the 2-7 Cleveland Browns led by backup quarterback Jameis Winston.

The last time they faced Joe Burrow, it took a run into overtime to win. This sets the stage for a tense showdown that should stay competitive into the 11th hour on the East Coast.

However, with the game taking place in Baltimore and the Bengals facing their own demons at 4-5, there is a lot more pressure on Cincinnati than Baltimore. Expect the Ravens to survive a difficult contest reminiscent of their first 2024 showdown against Burrow.

Both quarterbacks are names to watch in this one. Lamar Jackson has been a perennial powerhouse in fantasy football and considering the matchup against a leaky defense this week, he is expected to be more than productive.

On the other side, Joe Burrow has been dealing. He has 20 touchdowns and just four interceptions through nine weeks, putting him on pace for a potential 40-touchdown final stat line for the season.

With the Ravens owning the last-ranked passing defense in the NFL, expect Burrow's arm to light it up. This means Ja'Marr Chase should be quite productive as well.

Thursday Night Football has been a stream-only program for most of the 2024 season. Aside from Thanksgiving and the season-opener, every other matchup is expected to be played via Amazon Prime, including today's Bengals vs Ravens matchup. As such, only those with Amazon Prime will be able to watch, per Ravens Wire.

The game will air at 8:15 PM EST on the streaming service and, barring a weather delay or unplanned circumstances, it should conclude before midnight on the East Coast.
