Buffalo Bills: 4 questions with Ebony Bird ahead of AFC Divisional Round
Question 4: What do you think will be the deciding factor in this game and who do you think will win?
If the Ravens run for 300 yards they win. If they run for 250 yards they have a good shot. That’s how I am seeing this game. The Ravens have to keep Josh Allen off the field and control the time of possession battle. That’s part of it. The other thing is though, that’s just the lifeblood of the Ravens offense.
The Bills give up nearly 120 yards on the ground per game. The Ravens run for 150 on a bad day and average close to 200 rushing yards a game. I do believe the Ravens have a chance because of this.
If you’re putting money on the game it’s hard to go against the Bills. They’ve been great this season and they are at home. The weather may help them too. I don’t know that I am expecting the Ravens to win, but I have a funny feeling they are going to win it all.
So I’ll go Ravens 31-24 as biased as that may sound to a Buffalo audience. The Ravens are good, they’re hot at the right time and I think the run game and a good bit of Mark Andrews get them enough production to put the Bills in trouble. This is a complete toss-up if we’re being honest. It could go either way, hopefully, it breaks for Baltimore.
