Can the Streak Continue?

The Baltimore Ravens travel to Arizona to play against the Cardinals at the University of Phoenix Stadium on August 21st at 8:00 pm. This will be the second game both of these teams play in the preseason. They both won their first games of the preseason last week.

Now playing against the Cardinals, expect the ravens to try and continue the streak. During preseason, players are still fighting for a position on the final 52-man roster, so expect to see everyone at their best.

The Arizona Cardinals had a strong showing against the Cincinnati Bengals last week. They scored 36 points in three-quarters of play. The offense played great and scored five touchdowns, three of which were rushing. They had two quarterbacks play in the game. Trace McSorley was the first quarterback that played and he was in the game for the first half. During his time playing, he threw for 160 yards and one touchdown and had a quarterback rating of 97. Jarrett Guarantano replaced him and played the entire second half. He threw for one touchdown and had a quarterback rating of 116. In this game against the Ravens, it is unknown if the starters will play but it is confirmed that quarterback Kyler Murray will not participate. The defense did a great job at controlling the Bengals offense as they forced 4 fumbles but were only able to recover 1. The Cardinals need to have their offense and defense to find the same success against the Ravens if they want to end the streak.

The Baltimore Ravens beat the Tennessee Titans last week to keep their win streak alive. This streak started back in 2016 and the Ravens will try to keep it going. In last week’s game, the Ravens had three quarterbacks play and they combined for 250 passing yards. Quarterback Tyler Huntley started the game for the Ravens and he was able to throw for 100 yards and one touchdown and had a quarterback rating of 110. The defense also played amazingly as they forced the Titans to commit three turnovers. The Ravens will only play a few starters in this game and might fall victim to having their streak ended.

In this game, I think the Ravens will have a lot more to play for compared to the Cardinals. I think the Ravens know that they have the opportunity to continue to make history and will take advantage. The Ravens defense will be too much for the Cardinals and will dominate. Whoever wins this game will have great confidence and momentum heading into the final week of the preseason. Should the Ravens win, they extend their win streak to 22 games but should the Cardinals win, they will be known as the team that ended a 21-game win streak. Although it is preseason, there is a lot to play for.

For our expert Baltimore Ravens vs. Arizona Cardinals prediction take the Ravens -5.5 in the game.
