The Jacksonville Jaguars aim to clinch back-to-back winning seasons for the first time since 2004-05 when they host the AFC-leading Baltimore Ravens on Sunday Night Football. Jacksonville (8-5) captured the AFC South title with a 9-8 record last year but finished .500 or worse in 13 of the previous 14 campaigns. The Jaguars own a one-game division lead over both Indianapolis and Houston despite losing each of their last two contests. Baltimore (10-3) has won three in a row and the Ravens are two games ahead of Cleveland in the AFC North and one in front of Miami for the top seed in the conference.

Kickoff from EverBank Stadium is set for 8:20 p.m. ET. Baltimore is a 4-point favorite in the latest Jaguars vs. Ravens odds, while the over/under for total points scored is 41.5.

Why the Ravens can cover

Baltimore trailed after three quarters for the first time in 2023 last week, but still managed to post its seventh victory in eight games and reach double-digit wins for the fifth time in six years. Quarterback Lamar Jackson threw for 316 yards and three touchdowns while also gaining 70 yards on the ground, becoming the first player in NFL history to record at least 300 passing yards, three TD tosses and 70 rushing yards twice in his career. The 26-year-old has racked up 2,934 passing yards this year and is 194 away from eclipsing the career-high he set during his 2019 MVP season.

Jackson, who leads the Ravens in rushing with 644 yards, is 55-19 as a starter and can tie Tom Brady for the fifth-most wins through 75 starts since 1950. Gus Edwards ranks second on the team with 605 yards and is tied for fourth in the league with 10 touchdown runs. Rookie Keaton Mitchell has contributed to Baltimore's ground attack and is averaging 8.5 yards on 38 carries. See which team to pick here.

Why the Jaguars can cover

Baltimore is fourth in the NFL in points allowed (27.8) but has yielded at least 31 twice in its last three games. Jacksonville is averaging 24 points per contest to rank ninth in the league and has scored at least that many in each of its last four outings. The Jaguars have won their last two home meetings with the Ravens, producing a total of 72 points while limiting Baltimore to 34.

Jacksonville boasts three players with more than 700 receiving yards, and although team leader Christian Kirk (787) is on injured reserve with a core muscle injury, fellow wideout Calvin Ridley (742) and tight end Evan Engram (701) can cause problems for Baltimore. Ridley leads the Jaguars with five touchdown receptions, while Engram has racked up 177 receiving yards and made three TD catches over his last two contests. Defensively, Jacksonville is fourth in the NFL against the run (92.2 yards allowed) while linebacker Josh Allen is tied for third with a career-high 13.5 sacks and needs one to match the franchise single-season record set in 2017 by Calais Campbell. See which team to pick here.
