Ravens (+3) over STEELERS: Off uneven seasons attributable to health issues, Joe Flacco is back, in the Indian summer of his career, with a broad collection of legitimate receivers. Ravens coach John Harbaugh continues to impress. Neither defense is at historical peaks. Steelers fortunate to escape Tampa with a W, with at least one Ben Roethlisberger acting job yielding a critical flag. Ravens injuries are a concern, but multiple key operatives should return here. Pittsburgh is not the same without RB Le’Veon Bell and LB Ryan Shazier. Ravens turn in yet another top effort at Heinz, for one unit.
JAGUARS/Jets Over 38½: Following last week’s negative aberrational result out of the Jags — their 9-6 home loss to the Titans — look for Jacksonville to revert to its better form, such as displayed in its utter domination of the Patriots in Week 2. Expect the Jets to display rejuvenated offensive cohesion, off their road loss off a short week of practice in the Thursday nighter in Cleveland. The seasonal trend toward higher scoring continues. Jags and Jets go high.
Last week: 1-1.
Season: 3-4.
