NFL Week 14 Betting: Baltimore Ravens @ Washington Redskins Pick and Prediction

On Sunday, a big game will be played in the nation’s capital. Both teams come in with aspirations of the postseason. The Baltimore Ravens out of the AFC North are leading their division by two games over the Bengals and Steelers. Baltimore is coming off a home loss to the Steelers in week 13. Washington is in search of a win in a bad way. After beating the Giants last week, the Redskins are now just a single game behind them in divisional play. Washington is also a game behind the final NFC wildcard spot.

The Washington Redskins have won three straight games to get right back into the hunt. Washington in those three games have outscored opponents 86-53. The Redskins have been the best rushing team in the National Football League with nearly 168 yards per game. Much of that run game is coming from Alfred Morris, with 1,106 yards and 6 touchdowns. Pierre Garcon has been back the past two games for Washington, after missing several games with injuries. Santana Moss leads the Redskins with seven touchdown receptions on the season.

The Baltimore Ravens are playing without several of their top defensive players, but expect to get them back soon. Baltimore would like to get into the postseason, and then get healthy.  Offensively, Ray Rice and Torrey Smith are the top players, with 15 touchdowns combined between the two. The Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco has completed 252 of 426 passes for 3,000 yards and 15 touchdowns. The Ravens have won their last three road games.
