Ian Schultz makes his pick:

The Ravens head to Seattle to take on the 5-1 Seahawks and will be looking to head into their bye week on a three game winning streak.

Lamar Jackson will take on a Seahawks defense far removed from their Legion of Boom days. They still boast a strong pass rushing trio in Jadeveon Clowney, Ezekiel Ansah, and Jarran Reed who will be returning from season opening six game suspension.

Clowney and Ansah have struggled to get sacks this year but adding in Reed should help free the pass rushing duo. Reed had 10.5 sacks as an interior pass rusher last season and will prove a huge test for Matt Skura and Bradley Bozeman inside.

Defensively, the Ravens have to deal with MVP fron-runner Russell Wilson who has thrown 14 TD’S and 0 picks so far this season. He’ll lean on Chris Carson, Tyler Lockett, and D.K. Metcalf to help attack the Ravens defense which now includes the recently acquired Marcus Peters.

The Ravens are going to play well enough to keep this game throughout and very well might win it in the end. But in a game where the teams are evenly matched, give me Wilson to make a few more plays than Jackson.
