Key Points:
This Thursday, two teams with just two wins each this season will face off in what should be a pretty interesting Thursday Night Football game. The Baltimore Ravens are visiting the Miami Dolphins at Hard Rock Stadium, and both teams want to build off some recent momentum.
Before last week, both squads were struggling with just one win apiece. Then things changed. The Ravens pulled off a solid 30-16 win over the Chicago Bears without their star quarterback Lamar Jackson. Backup Tyler Huntley stepped up and showed he can lead the team when needed. Meanwhile, the Dolphins shocked a lot of people by blowing out the Falcons 34-10 at home. Tua Tagovailoa finally had his best game of the year, throwing four touchdown passes and controlling the offense like a pro.
Now the big question is, will Lamar Jackson play? He was expected to return for this game but got ruled out on Saturday. There’s talk he might be back soon if he can get in some full practice sessions before Thursday. If not, Huntley will likely start again for Baltimore. His performance last week gave Ravens fans some hope.
Miami is looking to keep this winning streak going. They were big underdogs against the Falcons but dominated on both sides of the ball. The offense looked sharp, with Tua connecting with his receivers confidently and the running game doing its job. Now with the home crowd behind them, the Dolphins want another strong showing.
On defense, Baltimore has been the stronger side of their team this year. They showed last week they can pressure the quarterback and stop the run, which will be key against Miami’s balanced attack. The Ravens defense prides itself on resilience, they don’t give up easily and can make big plays when needed.
Key matchups to watch include the Ravens’ pass rush versus Miami’s offensive line. If Baltimore can disrupt Tua, they’ll make things tough for the Dolphins. On the flip side, Miami’s receivers will try to find holes in the Ravens’ secondary and make plays after the catch.
This game could be close. If Lamar Jackson plays, Baltimore’s offense will be hard to stop. But if Huntley starts, Miami’s confidence after last week’s win could be the edge.
When elite offense meets elite defense, separating hype from real advantage takes a true playmaker’s eye. At Bankroll U, we break down every matchup detail, turning high-stakes showdowns like Dolphins–Ravens into winning opportunities.
