Baltimore Ravens vs Los Angeles Rams Prediction & Picks - NFL

The 1-4 Baltimore Ravens face a daunting trip to LA this weekend, as they take on the Los Angeles Rams in a matchup that has huge implications for both franchises. 

Last Sunday's crushing defeat to the Texans means that Baltimore have a dismal 1-4 record after five weeks of the season. Star QB Lamar Jackson has still not recovered from the hamstring injury, so veteran journeyman Cooper Rush is expected to continue behind center.

When you also factor in the Ravens' awful 31st ranked defense and run game that is struggling to get the best out of Derrick Henry, it is clear to see that the Ravens have a mountain to climb if they want to turn their season around.

The Rams come into Sunday's game off the back of an agonizing OT loss to the Niners. Before that, Sean McVay's men had been enjoying a solid start to the season, picking up impressive victories over the Colts, Titans and Texans, plus narrowly failing to beat the Eagles in a thrilling Week 3 encounter.
