As the Ravens gear up to face the Buffalo Bills in the AFC Divisional Round, one of the loudest voices in sports media, Skip Bayless, has made his pick clear: Baltimore will not only win in Buffalo but will dominate their way to the Super Bowl.
Speaking on The Skip Bayless Show, the Fox Sports personality didn’t hold back in praising the Ravens, calling them “overpoweringly dominant.” Bayless highlighted their dynamic offense, led by Lamar Jackson and Derrick Henry, as the key to their success.
“The Baltimore Ravens are an AFC juggernaut, who will beat the Bills in Buffalo,” Bayless stated confidently.
For years, the Ravens have been competitive with Jackson under center, but their offense often fell short in the postseason. That changed this offseason with the signing of star running back Derrick Henry. Henry delivered a monster year, racking up:
In their Wild Card victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers, Henry was unstoppable, rushing for 186 yards and two touchdowns on just 26 carries. His dominance on the ground has alleviated pressure on Jackson, allowing the quarterback to have his best season yet:
With this potent one-two punch, the Ravens boast one of the most versatile and dangerous offenses in the league.
Buffalo isn’t without weapons. Josh Allen has had an MVP-caliber season, and running back James Cook has matched Henry’s league-leading 16 rushing touchdowns. The Bills’ offense is explosive and capable of going toe-to-toe with Baltimore’s.
However, as Bayless pointed out, the Ravens appear to have a slight edge in overall firepower, with multiple offensive threats that can take over a game.
This Sunday’s matchup pits two of the NFL’s best quarterbacks—Jackson and Allen—against one another in what some are calling a Super Bowl-worthy showdown. The stakes couldn’t be higher, and with both teams at the peak of their powers, fans could be in for an all-time classic.
Bayless, however, is unwavering in his belief: Baltimore will emerge victorious and continue their march toward a championship.
What do you think, Ravens fans? Will Bayless be proven right, or can the Bills protect their home turf? Let us know in the comments!
