3 bold predictions for the Ravens vs. Dolphins game in Week 17
By Justin Long
2. Gus Edwards ties the Ravens rushing TDs record
Gus Edwards has been a touchdown machine for the Ravens this season, reaching the end zone a team-high 12 times. Edwards has always been an extremely effective short-yardage back, but he's been given the keys in the red zone more often this season.
His 12 rushing touchdowns are the 4th most of any player in the league this season and tied for the 2nd most of any Raven in a single season (trailing Jamal Lewis who recorded 14 rushing touchdowns).
The Ravens offense has scored at least 30 points in seven of their last nine games, and I expect a big performance from them again this week. It's a huge game for the Ravens and the players most certainly know that too.
I expect them to be firing on all cylinders. If the Ravens offense can move the ball on this stout Dolphins defense, Gus Edwards will get some red zone carries.
Ultimately, I think Edwards will have another multi-touchdown performance, tying him with Jamal Lewis for the most rushing touchdowns in Ravens single-season history.
