Sunday afternoon's action in the National Football League takes place at M&T Bank Field and features a matchup between the Baltimore Ravens and the Detroit Lions.

Baltimore Ravens are currently 4-2 on the season after their most recent game, a 24-16 victory over the Tennessee Titans. With that victory, the Ravens improved their record to 4-2 overall. Lamar Jackson has completed 69.9% of his passes for a total of 1,253 yards, 5 touchdowns, and 3 interceptions. He also leads the team in rushing with 327 yards and has scored four touchdowns on the ground. Gus Edwards has rushed for 282 yards and scored 3 touchdowns, and Justice Hill has rushed for 150 yards and scored 3 touchdowns. The Baltimore Ravens' receiving group is led by Zay Flowers, who has 35 receptions for 367 yards, while both Mark Andrews and Nelson Agholor have more than 200 yards receiving on the year. Roquan Smith leads the club in total tackles with 63, and Geno Stone has three interceptions to his name on the defensive side of the ball. This season, Justin Madubuike leads the club with 4.5 quarterback sacks, while Patrick Queen and Jadeveon Clowney both have 3.5 sacks, and Kyle Hamilton also has 3 sacks. Jadeveon Clowney has 3.5 sacks.

After defeating the Tampa Bay Buccaneers by a score of 20-6 in their most recent matchup, the Detroit Lions enter this contest riding high on the momentum of their fourth consecutive victory. Their record currently stands at 5-1 for the season. David Montgomery has rushed for 6 touchdowns on 385 yards and Jahmyr Gibbs has rushed for 179 yards while Jared Goff has passed for 1,618 yards, 11 touchdowns, and 3 interceptions while completing 69.5% of his passes. Jared Goff has thrown for 69.5% of his passes. Josh Reynolds and Sam LaPorta each have more than 300 receiving yards on the season, and like Amon-Ra St. Brown, Amon-Ra St. Brown leads the Detroit Lions in receiving with 38 receptions for 455 yards and 3 touchdowns. On defense, Alex Anzalone has the most total tackles with 44, Aidan Hutchinson has the most sacks with 4.5, and Jerry Jacobs has the most interceptions with three.

I'm going to support the Detroit Lions in this game, which should come down to a coin toss. But the Lions have already picked up some great road wins this season, and I'm a bit wary of trusting teams coming back from these London games without a bye week. These are two strong defensive units, and this will really be a gut check for the Detroit Lions. My guess is that the Detroit Lions will show up to compete and earn themselves the cover for this situation.
