It may not be championship weekend like in the collegiate ranks, but the NFL presents plenty of rivalry matchups in Week 14. Sunday’s bout between the Steelers and Ravens (1:00 p.m. ET on CBS) is one of the highest-profile contests on the docket.
With both teams sitting at 6-6 on the year, it doesn’t get any closer. There’s a razor-thin margin for error in a competitive, albeit ugly AFC North race.
Below, we’ll break down our Steelers vs. Ravens prediction and Sunday Week 14 picks to consider. Use PrizePicks NFL to monitor player projections and make picks for real rewards if you’re right.

Pittsburgh Steelers Preview vs. Ravens
Last year featured more of the same for the Steelers. They went 10-7 for the second season in a row, also getting jettisoned in the opening round of the playoffs.
Despite bringing in QB Aaron Rodgers and starting this year 4-1, Pittsburgh is in the midst of a 2-5 stretch and has dropped two games in a row.
The Steelers’ offense, while improved, is still largely unimpressive. Even at 15th in scoring, it’s 27th in yards per drive and 28th in overall rushing yardage.
Perhaps the most alarming part of this year’s Pittsburgh team is its defensive regression. Coordinator Teryl Austin’s unit ranks 21st in points per drive but creates the second-most takeaways in the sport.
Baltimore Ravens Preview vs. Steelers
The Ravens have qualified for the postseason three years running. Last year, after winning 12 regular-season contests, they dropped a brutal game in the divisional round.
With two-time NFL MVP QB Lamar Jackson banged up, Baltimore’s encore campaign got off to a slow start. Since opening 2025 at 1-5, though, they’ve won five of six games.
On the year, the Ravens sit 13th in per-drive scoring and have rushed for more yards than all but four teams.
Defensively, Baltimore is 23rd in points per drive. Opponents try to carve them up through the air, as they’ve faced more pass attempts (436) than all but four teams.
Steelers vs. Ravens Sunday NFL Week 14 Picks
Here are three Steelers vs. Ravens picks for NFL Week 14 on Sunday. Some top same-game PrizePicks projections to consider include QBs Aaron Rodgers and Lamar Jackson and RB Derrick Henry.
Steelers QB Aaron Rodgers vs. Ravens Projection: 196.5 Pass Yards
- In his 21st NFL season, Rodgers averages just 189.6 passing yards.
- Rodgers has failed to reach 200 passing yards in three of his last five games, averaging a measly 163.2 yards over that span.
- While the passing volume the Ravens face is immense, their 6.4-yard average yards per attempt allowed is tied for the 12th-lowest mark.
- Per nfelo, the Steelers own a -1.6% pass rate over expected.
- Keep an eye on Rodgers’ wrist injury. If he can’t play under center for another week, it might render Pittsburgh’s offense stale or predictable.
Ravens QB Lamar Jackson vs. Steelers Projection: 249.5 Pass + Rush Yards
- In nine starts this year, Jackson averages 233.9 combined passing and rushing yards. Since returning to the lineup in Week 9, that number is just 214.

Ravens RB Derrick Henry vs. Steelers Projection: 82.5 Rush Yards
- Henry averages just 77.6 rushing yards per game in year 10. With that said, since Jackson’s Week 9 return, he’s up to 84.2.
