It has been seven games since the Ravens beat the Steelers by more than a field goal. Pittsburgh, in fact, has won five of its last six meetings against Baltimore.
The Steelers have their bye next week. They certainly don't want to enter it on a two-game losing streak after an embarrassing, 30-6, road loss to the Texans last Sunday.
Baltimore is at its worst laying points - 3-8 ATS the past 11 times when favored. Pittsburgh is at its best as a home underdog - 16-5-3 ATS the last 24 times. The Steelers have covered 64 percent of the time under Mike Tomlin when receiving points at home going 51-28-4 ATS.
The 3-1 Ravens are trying to establish themselves early as the team to beat in the AFC North already owning division road victories against the Bengals and Browns. Right now, though, the Ravens aren't that good despite their record.
The Ravens beat the Texans opening week at home when C.J. Stroud was making his NFL debut behind a makeshift offensive line. Baltimore then beat the Bengals in Week 2 when Joe Burrow wasn't 100 percent and the Bengals were in a down mode. Then came an upset road loss to the Colts, who were quarterbacked by backup Gardner Minshew. The Ravens then caught a monster break last Sunday when Deshaun Watson was a late scratch forcing the Browns to use untested rookie QB Dorian Thompson-Robinson, who found out the hard way that regular season is vastly different than preseason.
Lamar Jackson is playing well. But the Ravens have been dealing with a cluster injury problem in their offensive line, running back and secondary. The Steelers have a strong history of defending Jackson well. Jackson has never scored a rushing TD against the Steelers and has a 4-to-6 touchdown-to-interception ratio versus Pittsburgh. T.J. Watt is back to his dominant pass rushing self tied for the NFL lead in sacks with six.
I'm fine no matter who is behind center for Pittsburgh. Kenny Pickett would be an inspiration after getting knocked out last week with a knee injury, while backup Mitch Trubisky would provide a running threat the Steelers don't have with Pickett.
