Matchup Breakdown

How the model sees it unfold — the matchups that decide the game, from 50 simulations
Keys to the Game
  • Jaylen Warren (Steelers) vs Kyle Hamilton (Ravens) - winner: Jaylen Warren, 5.0 yds a carry - a tone-setter on the ground.
  • Keeanu Benton (Steelers) vs Vega Ioane (Ravens) - winner: Keeanu Benton, winning 56% of reps for 0.8 sacks and 4.4 pressures a game - a one-man wrecking crew off the edge.
In the Trenches
  • Don't expect much heat from the Ravens — a 49% win rate yields only 3.7 sacks and 10.8 pressures a game, Trenton Simpson (0.7 sacks, 4.7 pressures a game) leading the way.
  • The Ravens' line should hold up: the Steelers win just 52% of their reps, mustering 5.0 sacks and 28.9 pressures a game, and Alex Highsmith (1.7 sacks, 7.2 pressures a game) headlines it.
Through the Air
  • Zay Flowers is the go-to for the Ravens, separating on 61% of routes for 48 yds a game.
  • Through the air it is D.K. Metcalf's show for the Steelers: 43 yds a game, open on 42% of routes.
  • In coverage, Chidobe Awuzie (Ravens) travels and erases — only 39% separation allowed, good for 0.4 INT a game.
On the Ground
  • Derrick Henry is the workhorse for the Ravens, churning 60 yds a game at 3.5 a carry, with his best work to the right side.
  • Jaylen Warren sets the tempo for the Steelers — 55 yds a game on the ground at 5.0 a carry, doing his damage off the right edge and moving the chains.
