Ian Schultz makes his prediction:

The Baltimore Ravens are currently the toast of the town and furthermore the toast of the NFL. They will be looking to to 8-2 and gain an inside track at a first round bye when they welcome the 6-3 Houston Texans to M&T Bank Stadium this Sunday.

In a game that will see two MVP candidate QB’S in Lamar Jackson and Deshaun Watson, Ravens fans could be in store for a shootout. Jackson has been sensational this season and is arguably the current front runner for the MVP award. He has consistently gotten it done with his legs AND his arm and delivered his signature moment last week with a 47 yard touchdown scamper that broke social media.

Watson enters this game coming off a bye week and hoping to get Will Fuller V to add to an already impressive receiving corps that boasts Deandre Hopkins and Kenny Stills. Coach Bill O’Brien‘s team is 4-1 coming out of a bye in his tenure in Houston with all five of those games coming on the road oddly enough.

Look for Marquise Brown to have his best game in the NFL going up against one of the leagues worst passing defenses. The number one producing WRS against the Texans the last five weeks have combined for 24 catches 445 yards and six touchdowns.

This should be a wild one on Sunday but I am going to take the Ravens 29-23.
