Baltimore Ravens Form
While things took a turn for the worse in last week’s 28-27 defeat to the Jacksonville Jaguars, a run of four wins in five matches still speaks volumes about the kind of form the Baltimore Ravens are in right now. Their overall record from the past 10 games stands at 6-4.
From 11 games this season, the Baltimore Ravens have scored a solid 25.0 points on average. This gives them bragging rights as one of the league’s top-scoring offenses. The defense, on the other hand, has really stepped up against opposing offenses of late. In the past five outings, the hosts have only given up 17.2 points on average. This is better than how they’ve fared over the season, having allowed 20.6 points per game in comparison.
The Baltimore Ravens began the year backed as a threat for the AFC Championship. While it’s still early days, the hosts remain on course to reach this target. They hold the fourth seed in the AFC Conference and will seek to both maintain and improve their seeding as the regular season winds down.
Denver Broncos Form
A 23-10 defeat to the Carolina Panthers last week extended the losing streak of the Denver Broncos to three matches. Their record for the last 10 games now stands at 3-7.
The offense has struggled to click into gear across the last three matches, with the Denver Broncos putting just 14.3 points on board. However, with 17.6 points allowed per game, the Denver Broncos’ defense is up in the top half of the league’s defensive rankings, which may give them some pull for their latest trip.
Reaching the Super Bowl is the ultimate dream for the Denver Broncos. It’s a big ask though. Not only did the visitors exit in the first round of last season’s playoffs, but they’re only 3-8 this year, and unless things pick up soon, even a postseason berth will be out of their reach.
