The Baltimore Ravens are set to take on the Kansas City Chiefs in NFL Week 15 action. What five bold predictions can be made for the game and what should fans be on the lookout for throughout the game?
1. Jimmy Clausen Puts Up Big Numbers for the Ravens
Due to the injuries that the Ravens have suffered at the quarterback position, we are making this prediction with the expectation that Jimmy Clausen starts. If that does end up being the case, he is going to put up a big game. Clausen is looking to prove that he is still a relevant quarterback and coming through with a big game this week would do just that.
2. Jeremy Maclin Racks Up at Least 125 Yards, Two Touchdowns
Kansas City made the big move to sign Jeremy Maclin last offseason and it has paid off in a big way. He is the legitimate No. 1 target that Alex Smith has needed and that will show up once again this week. Maclin will rack up at least 125 yards and two touchdowns against a Baltimore defense that is in major need of some help.
3. Javorious Allen Totals 150 Yards, Three Touchdowns
Baltimore may not have an amazing offense, but Javorious Allen is an extremely dangerous offensive option for them. He will have a massive week against the Chiefs and will total 150 yards and three touchdowns on the day. Allen has broken onto the scene and is earning a big contract at some point in the near future.
4. Alex Smith Absolutely Dominates the Baltimore Defense
As you can tell from the Maclin prediction, we are expecting the Ravens' defense to put up a pitiful performance this week. Kansas City will see Alex Smith click on all cylinders and will see him completely dominate the Baltimore defense. Smith has had a great season and that will continue in a big way this week.
5. Kansas City Comes Away with a Hard-Fought Victory
While the Ravens are going to put up a fight, Kansas City is still the better football team and will come away with a hard-fought win. They will improve to 9-5 with the win and push themselves even farther into the Wild Card contention. Andy Reid has to feel very good about his chances to get into the postseason and this week should help them towards that goal.
