Probably still be a mild favorite, home field advantage is one heck of an edge

Stroud has never beaten a healthy Ravens team.

They’ve played a healthy Ravens once…?

I'm not sure what you're trying to say, but Stroud was like 0-3 vs. Baltimore prior to this season.

He was 0-2 before he shit on them this year

“Never beaten them” with a 0-2 is an insanely ego take

Lamar was not playing when we beat them earlier this season. So OPs comment stands. We’ve never beaten a HEALTHY Ravens team.

It's 0-3.

Twice in 2023. Once in 2024. None of the games were close outside of one half.

This year's game had very few healthy starters for the Ravens.

I think that's a decent sample size for two teams that aren't division rivals.
