Baltimore (8-2) at Los Angeles Rams (6-4)
7:15 p.m. (CT) Monday | Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum | ESPN
Outlook: The game on Monday Night Football pits a pair of teams who are vying for playoff spots in their respective conferences. Baltimore leads the AFC North and has won six straight games after a 2-2 start. The Ravens are a perfect 2-0 against NFC teams so far in 2019. Los Angeles has a winning record but sits in third place in the NFC West behind San Francisco and Seattle. The Rams play four of their final six games against teams with winning records.
Ravens Notes
Quarterback Lamar Jackson is having an MVP-caliber season. He has thrown for 2,258 yards with 19 touchdowns and five interceptions, and has rushed for 788 yards and six scores.
Baltimore leads the NFL in total rushing attempts (358), total rushing yards (2,038) and rushing yards per game (203.8).
This will be the Ravens first-ever game in the city of Los Angeles.
Rams Notes
Running back Todd Gurley tied his season-best with 97 rushing yards in Week 11. Gurley has yet to record a 100-yard rushing performance in 2019 after six such performances in 2018.
Quarterback Jared Goff has a touchdown rate of 2.9 percent in 2019 (11 touchdowns on 373 attempts). That is almost half of the 5.8 percent touchdown rate he had in 2017 and 2018 combined (60 touchdowns on 1,038 pass attempts).
Los Angeles has already surpassed its 2018 loss total when the team went 13-3, won the NFC West and played in Super Bowl LIII.
