• ESPN simulations have Washington as XX% favorites to cover the spread.
• XX% of sports bets are currently on Baltimore to win as (XX) favorites.
• The line for this game is Baltimore by 3.5 points.
• The Washington Redskins have ignited their offense with 60 points during a modest two-game winning streak, but a road game against the league’s top-ranked defense will provide a good litmus test for the reigning NFC East champions. Washington will vie for supremacy in the Battle of the Beltway on Sunday against the Baltimore Ravens, who limited Oakland’s third-ranked offense to just 13 first downs and 261 total yards before sustaining their first loss of the season.
• After shadowing Odell Beckham Jr. (New York Giants) and Terrelle Pryor (Cleveland), high-priced cornerback Josh Norman will be tasked with covering a man he called a teammate for the first two years of NFL career: former Carolina star Steve Smith (team-leading 24 receptions for 281 yards). “Lion against lion, dog against a dog, beast against beast,” the All-Pro Norman told ESPN of his matchups in practice against the now-37-year-old Smith. Cornerback Shareece Wright has been torched for four touchdown passes in the last two games for an injury-riddled secondary. To address that end, Washington signed three-time Pro Bowler Donte Whitner on Wednesday after fellow safety David Bruton Jr. was placed on injured reserve.
• Although Terrance West rushed for a career-high 113 yards and a touchdown last week, he’ll have competition in the Baltimore backfield as rookie Kenneth Dixon is expected to make his NFL debut on Sunday. Dixon, who scored the second-most touchdowns in NCAA history, has adjusted to wearing a brace after he sprained the MCL in his left knee during a preseason game on Aug. 27.
• Redskins RB Matt Jones continues to distance himself from a preseason shoulder injury, highlighted by his career-high 22 carries for 117 yards and a touchdown last week.
• Competing in his first season as a starter, Ravens LB Zach Orr’s 33 tackles are 10 more than any other teammate.
• The game will feature Ks Justin Tucker (Baltimore, 12-for-12 on field goals) and Dustin Hopkins (Washington, 11-for-11), who earned their respective conference’s Special Teams Player of the Month honors for September.
