Here are 20 bold predictions to consider for NFL Week 13 during the 2018 season.

With only five games remaining for each team, one can only imagine the high level of intensity that will come with NFL Week 13 of the 2018 season since these next few weeks will play a big factor in which teams are fortunate enough to make the playoffs. For example, the Baltimore Ravens have managed to win two games in a row despite Joe Flacco dealing with a hip injury, and all eyes will be on rookie Lamar Jackson to see what he has up his sleeves for the Atlanta Falcons.

Every once in a while, Baltimore would get a little tricky on offense by inserting Jackson to try throwing off opponents, which has worked quite well for the most part. However, the last two weeks have given the Ravens a better idea over what the future could look like with Jackson once the time comes for Flacco to call it a career.

Now that Jackson has some starting experience under his belt, this will hopefully boost the rookie’s confidence down the road since it’s never easy to replace a quarterback like Flacco who will always be viewed as a hero for helping the team win a Super Bowl many years ago.

As for what to expect from Jackson this weekend if he starts again, well let’s just say it won’t exactly be smooth sailing when seeing how motivated the Falcons are to win for the first time in four games. Along with Jackson’s play, here are some other predictions to consider for football fans during Week 13.
