Seattle Seahawks at Baltimore Ravens: Predictions, picks and odds for NFL Week 9 game

Show Caption

The Baltimore Ravens (6-2) march into Week 9 to take on the Seattle Seahawks (5-2) for a home game at M&T Bank Stadium.

Lamar Jackson cooled off a bit last week in a 31-24 win over the Arizona Cardinals after scoring four total touchdowns a week earlier. Running back Gus Edwards carried the torch and scored three touchdowns against Arizona. The quarterback has thrown for 1,767 yards and thrown nine touchdowns and three interceptions on the season. Baltimore is seeking to tie their four-game win streak from last year.

The Seahawks also beat the Cardinals two weeks ago before capturing another victory over the Cleveland Browns. Star receiver DK Metcalf returned last week from injury and had five receptions on 14 targets for 67 yards. He had a key block that helped rookie Jaxon Smith-Njigba score the winning touchdown.

NFL Week 8 winners, losers: Gruesome game for stumbling Giants

NFL Week 9 odds, predictions and picks

Lorenzo Reyes: Ravens 26, Seahawks 20

These are two solid teams who do really well against the spread, but every time Baltimore has failed to cover a game, it has bounced back very well. Also, Seattle has struggled against the better teams on its schedule this season, so I lean Ravens here.

Tyler Dragon: Ravens 24, Seahawks 20

The Ravens are quietly the best team in the AFC and Lamar Jackson is performing at an MVP level. We’ll find out a lot about the Ravens in November. Baltimore’s November calendar consists of the Seahawks, Browns, Bengals and Chargers. Sunday is going to be a physical game battle in Baltimore.

Safid Deen: Ravens 27, Seahawks 20

Lamar Jackson and the Ravens are on a roll, and it will continue next week against the visiting Seahawks. This one is simple for me: Jackson and the Ravens defense will be too much for Geno Smith and the Seahawks.

Victoria Hernandez: Ravens 27, Seahawks 23

The Ravens have a well-rounded offense and are chugging along nicely. The Seahawks haven't exactly had the strongest schedule so far this season. They won't be able to keep up in the cross country road game against that high-powered offense and stout defense.

Jordan Mendoza: Ravens 30, Seahawks 20

Baltimore is playing some of the best football in the NFL right now, and while this feels like a trap game, the Ravens defense makes it tough for Geno Smith to find rhythm. Baltimore pulls away in the second half for their fourth straight win and third straight week scoring at least 30 points.
