Baltimore had a stellar 2020 season, finishing 11-5 and falling short to the Buffalo Bills in the AFC Divisional Round. With 2019 NFL MVP Lamar Jackson ready to go and the Raiders having their key skill players suiting up, Monday night figures to be an intriguing showdown.

- Lamar Jackson and Derek Carr both to record 225+ passing yards (+175)
- Lamar Jackson to score the first touchdown of the game (+650)
- Darren Waller to be the first touchdown scorer for the Raiders (+450)
The Ravens played the Raiders in 2018, with Baltimore pulling off a big 34-17 win as Jackson racked up 249 total yards and two touchdowns. With that in mind, it makes sense why bettors seem to have a strong amount of confidence in Jackson to have a big game on Monday night.
Raiders big-play tight end Darren Waller collected 107 receptions for 1,196 yards and nine touchdowns in 2020. Bettors are expecting a big night from Derek Carr, and that essentially means a great game from Waller would be close to guaranteed.
