Jaguars and Ravens set for Thursday night showdown in Baltimore

The surging Jaguars travel to M&T Bank Stadium looking to add to a rough week for Baltimore.

The Jaguars head into Baltimore on Thursday, Nov. 5, 2026, riding momentum the Ravens simply don't have right now. Kickoff is set for 8:15 p.m. ET at M&T Bank Stadium for the Week 9 matchup.

Jacksonville arrives at 5-2 after demolishing the Colts 42-7 in Week 8, a performance that fits their season-long profile: 28.0 points scored per game against just 15.9 allowed. Quarterback Trevor Lawrence has been the engine behind that number, throwing for 1,690 yards, 17 touchdowns and only four interceptions through seven games, completing 65.7 percent of his passes with a 112.6 rating. Against the Colts alone he went 10 of 14 for 210 yards and three touchdowns without a turnover.

Baltimore enters in rougher shape. The Ravens sit at 4-4 after a lopsided 36-10 loss at the Bills in Week 8, part of what has reportedly been a difficult week around the team. They're averaging 22.4 points per game while allowing 25.4, numbers that make them underdogs against a Jaguars team that currently leads the AFC South.

The game airs on Thursday Night Football, with analysts and prediction markets largely favoring Jacksonville heading into kickoff.
