Denver Broncos at Baltimore Ravens: Predictions, picks and odds for NFL Week 9 game
Don't look now, but Bo Nix has emerged as one of the better rookies from the 2024 class. He's played a very large role in the Denver Broncos' re-emergence and their 5-3 record. However, the team will now face their toughest test yet, an angry Baltimore Ravens squad fresh off a loss to the Cleveland Browns.
Lamar Jackson, Derrick Henry, and company understand that they can't afford many more weeks like the one they had last weekend, letting a win against an AFC North adversary slip through their fingers. While they are massively favored to win this week, they've been massively favored before, including last week as well as Week 2, where the Ravens fell to the Las Vegas Raiders. Perhaps this game could be closer than most people are anticipating.
Here are our experts' predictions for this Week 9 showdown.

Lorenzo Reyes: Ravens 25, Broncos 17
This is the problem with Baltimore year in and year out; they have those inexplicable losses. That has eroded my trust in the Ravens a bit, and I do think they win, but Denver has a really solid defense, so this one could stay closer.
Tyler Dragon: Ravens 30, Broncos 20
The Ravens are coming off a frustrating loss to the Browns that snapped a five-game win streak. Baltimore’s pass defense remains an issue. But Denver won’t be able to exploit Baltimore through the air. The Ravens get back on track this week.
Richard Morin: Broncos 32, Ravens 28
Don't go against Bo!
Jordan Mendoza: Ravens 23, Broncos 17
Can Baltimore beat the fraud allegations? They’ll face a tough defense and a quarterback in Bo Nix that’s gaining confidence. Baltimore should win, but the spread seems too large for the Ravens to cover.
