2022 NFL Predictions: Can the Ravens Bounce Back in the AFC North?

We are less than 100 days away from the NFL season, and we are now just fourteen Sundays until we can sit back and watch football all day. There is nothing better in the world than ordering some food, kicking back, and watching football all day long. The best thing that we can do until the season is here is to bet on futures.

We crushed futures last season, and we are going to do so again this year. This future will be set around the Baltimore Ravens. The Ravens had a disappointing season last year as they missed out on the postseason. Injuries were the Achilles heel of this team. Star QB and former MVP winner Lamar Jackson missed multiple games during the season. His injury put them in a tough spot to make the playoffs. Tyler Huntley stepped in and played excellent football In Jackson’s absence, but it was not enough to get the Ravens over the hump. They will look to change their fortunes this season. 

The bet we are taking here is going to be the Baltimore Ravens to win the AFC North. I understand a lot of people may not love this due to the Bengals winning the division last year and going to the Super Bowl.

While I love Joe Burrow and the Bengals, they will regress this season. The Ravens are always a competitive team led by one of the best head coaches in the NFL, and they are always a top-run organization. I expect Lamar Jackson to be healthy this season and thrive with second-year running back JK Dobbins.

This Ravens defense was good last year, and I think they will be a solid defense once again. The value here is far too strong not to take a shot. The Browns are a mess with the Deshaun Watson situation, and the Steelers are a wildcard team in my mind. I believe the Ravens are the best team in the division and severely undervalued!
