One of the most anticipated games of the year and a battle for the MVP! The Philadelphia Eagles had an erratic start to the season, but since then they’ve come back to their identity and established themselves as the frontrunner for the NFC East, a contender for the number 1 seed for the playoffs in the NFC, and a Super Bowl contender, all behind the historical season from Saquon Barkley.

The Baltimore Ravens for their part, despite some stumbles along the road, are one of the most dangerous sides in the league led by the deadly backfield combo of QB Lamar Jackson and RB Derrick Henry. A potential Super Bowl prelude at M&T Bank Stadium, will it be Lamar and Henry for the Ravens or Saquon and Hurts for the Eagles?

What the Line Should Be

We actually have the Eagles favored (0.14) over Baltimore.

Action is balanced on this game.

Eagles Player to Watch

RB Saquon Barkley. Barkley has not only turned the Eagles into legitimate Super Bowl contenders, his numbers could make him the first non-QB to win MVP since Minnesota’s Adrian Peterson in 2012. He had a career-high 255 yards on 26 carries and two rushing TDs against the Rams. It was the ninth-best single-game rushing performance in NFL history. Barkley has only played against Baltimore once, and finished with 83 yards rushing and a touchdown in October 2022.

Ravens Player to Watch

RB Derrick Henry. Not to be outdone, Henry is close behind Barkley in the race for the NFL rushing title, trailing 1,392 yards to 1,325. His 15 total TDs lead the league. This is the first meeting between players with at least 1,300 yards rushing since Week 16 of 2012, when Peterson’s Minnesota team faced Houston and Arian Foster.

Key Matchup

Baltimore’s Lamar Jackson vs. Philadelphia’s top-ranked defense. Jackson has been particularly good with ball security this season. He’s thrown only three interceptions. The Eagles lead the league with 46 points off turnovers since Week 8.
