Baltimore Ravens at New York Jets odds, picks and predictions

The Baltimore Ravens and the New York Jets begin their 2022 seasons at MetLife Stadium Sunday. Kickoff is set for 1 p.m. ET (CBS). Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook‘s lines around the Ravens vs. Jets odds, and make our expert NFL picks and predictions.

The Ravens finished in last place in the AFC North last season with an 8-9 record, largely due to the myriad of injuries they dealt with. QB Lamar Jackson is poised for a bounce-back season as he enters a contract year in 2022 after dealing with an injury of his own in 2021.

Losing has become a common theme for the Jets as they’ve failed to win more than 7 games in 6 consecutive seasons. New York will be without QB Zach Wilson to begin the 2022 campaign, so it will be veteran QB Joe Flacco orchestrating the offense until the 2nd-year signal-caller can return.

Prediction

Ravens 34, Jets 17

Money line

You can go ahead and PASS on the money line in this game with the Ravens being massive favorites. Don’t wager on the money line in this game unless you are doing a parlay that makes it easier to take the -320 odds in favor of Baltimore.

For those that like to play anytime TD scorer props, LAMAR JACKSON (+120) is an intriguing bet ahead of what could be a bounce-back season from the former NFL MVP, especially if Dobbins is sidelined.

Against the spread

RAVENS -6.5 (-120) is the pick in this game with Baltimore being the much better team than New York. Jackson could almost single-handedly beat this Jets team and the defense of the Ravens should excel, even with former defensive coordinator Don Martindale no longer calling the plays.

Baltimore is 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games in Week 1 and they’ve covered the spread in 4 of their last 5 meetings with New York. The Jets are 6-20-1 ATS in their last 27 games in September and they’ve gone 1-4 ATS in their last 5 matchups as a home underdog.

Over/Under

The Ravens are going to get off to a blazing start in this game and coast to the finish. OVER 43.5 (-117) is the move in this game as Baltimore could score the majority of the points while New York could record some garbage-time points to hit the Over.

The Over is 6-2 in the last 8 home games for the Jets.
