There isn't a more desperate team Sunday than the Jaguars. They're 0-2 and playing at home against a team with comparable talent, albeit a 2-0 record. Chris Ivory's return is huge for Jacksonville, which looked pathetic trying to run the ball (2.5 ypc) without him.

Jacksonville was supposed to be one of the most improved teams in the NFL this year but is again 0-2 and searching for answers. A win will not come here against a Baltimore team that got a wake-up call last week and needed to rally from a 20-2 deficit to pull off a 25-20 victory at Cleveland. My simulations have the Ravens winning 60 percent of the time and covering at a 59 percent clip.

Last year, the Ravens dealt with a murderous first-half schedule en route to a disappointing season. The scheduling gods have smiled upon them this year. Jacksonville just returned from a cross-country trip getting shellacked by the Chargers. After this game, the Jags get back on a plane and head to London. The Jags haven’t fared well in their pre-London matchup in recent years. Dennis Pitta looks back in form, giving the Ravens offense an added dimension. The defense welcomes back Elvis Dumervil and should tee off with Kelvin Beachum dealing with a concussion. Sounds like a great spot for Baltimore.
