The Baltimore Ravens host the Jacksonville Jaguars on Thursday Night Football to open Week 9 of the NFL season. Quarterback Lamar Jackson will miss the game due to a thumb injury, leaving the Ravens' offense without its MVP candidate.
SportsLine's Machine Learning AI model has analyzed the matchup and identified several high-confidence player prop bets for same-game parlays. The model projects Jacksonville quarterback Trevor Lawrence to finish under 237.5 passing yards, a 4.5-star rated prop at -114 odds. Lawrence has gone under his passing yardage projection in four consecutive games played in the United States, excluding back-to-back London games. He ranks 23rd in pass attempts despite leading the NFL in passer rating, suggesting high efficiency over volume.
On the ground, Ravens running back Derrick Henry faces the Jaguars' top-ranked run defense. Henry has not exceeded 58 rushing yards in his last three games, and his prop line is set at 70.5 rushing yards. The AI model suggests the under could be valuable. Meanwhile, Jacksonville rushed for 183 yards in its previous game, its highest total in 15 games, and Baltimore allowed 146 rushing yards on Sunday, its second-most allowed in the past year. With rain forecasted, both teams may lean heavily on the run game, potentially limiting Lawrence's passing opportunities. The model projects Lawrence for 197.9 passing yards on average.
Two-way player Travis Hunter, who logged his first career punt return last week, is listed at +800 to score a touchdown anytime. The AI model has identified ten additional NFL props rated four stars or better for the contest.
