The Jacksonville Jaguars (2-6) suffered their 13th straight road defeat in Week 9 and they are now headed to the M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore to visit the Ravens (2-6), who are coming off a rare win, for a 2015 NFL season Week 10 affair on Sunday.
Jacksonville dropped a 28-23 decision to the injury-riddled New York Jets at the MetLife Stadium last Sunday as they came back from a bye week, as reported by the NJ Advance Media.
Jaguars almost came from behind to win the game, but punt returner Nick Marshall fumbled New York's punt at their 25-yard line to give the Jets the chance for the game-winning touchdown.
Meanwhile, the Ravens are fresh from a Week 9 bye week, but they rested coming off a 29-26 win, only their second of the season, over the San Diego Chargers last November 1st at their home stadium, via ESPN.
Baltimore placekicker Justin Tucker hit a 39-yard field goal with little left on the clock to life his team against the Chargers.
However, the Ravens lost their veteran top wideout Steve Smith to a torn Achilles tendon suffered in the third quarter of the match. He is out for the season and will most likely retire in the process after 15 years of playing in the NFL.
Odds in this contest is leaning toward the Jaguars who are set to win on the road for the first time in their last 13 games.
Prediction: Jaguars win, 21-14.
