2025 NFL Thursday Night Football Week 9 Betting Lines

It hasn’t happened often this season but the Baltimore Ravens and Miami Dolphins will enter their Week 9 Thursday Night Football showdown coming off victories. The Ravens ended a 4-game losing streak beating the Bears 30-16 on Sunday scoring the most points in a game not started by Lamar Jackson since he took over the starting gig midway through the 2018 season. The team is hopeful the two-time MVP is healthy enough to return for this game after missing the previous three games. Baltimore scored just 13 points in the first two of those contests.

The Dolphins were also catching heat after dropping three straight and six of their first seven games. Like the Ravens, Miami had an offensive outburst scoring a season-high point total in Sunday’s 34-10 win at Atlanta. Tua Tagovailoa had four touchdown passes matching his total from the previous three games. Baltimore opened as a 7-point road favorite with the total at 50. That’s assuming Jackson will play, which appears to be the case at this point.

The Ravens just might win the AFC North. With the Steelers crumbling Baltimore enters the Week 9 contest in Miami just two wins behind Pittsburgh in the standings. And they broke their losing streak without the services of their leader on offense. Things looked bleak for the Ravens the previous two games scoring 13 points in losses to Houston and the Rams. But there was a glimmer of hope in the LA game when the defense played better than it had all season allowing just 241 total yards.

The Week 7 bye gave the Ravens time to heal a few wounds and also tinker with the offense. Tyler Huntley got some reps and was able to move the club better than Cooper Rush. Huntley got the start on Sunday when Jackson was ruled out for a third straight game and completed 17 of 22 for 186 yards and a TD. He also rushed for 53 yards and the ground game worked compiling 177 yards and 5.1 yards per carry. Derrick Henry had 71 yards and two TDs on 21 attempts.

Even with Jackson on the shelf the Ravens were as healthy as they’ve been in some time. That showed on the defensive side of the football with the group coming up with big plays to prevent Chicago from adding to a 6-0 first quarter lead. They held Chicago to one TD in three red zone trips and after allowing an average of 35.4 points in their first five games they held the last two opponents to 17 points or less.

The hole for the Dolphins in the AFC East is a little steeper, but they took some steps toward making the climb out of it with a 34-10 dismantling of Atlanta on Sunday. It hasn’t been the best season for Tua Tagovailoa on or off the field, but he rebounded from two disastrous games throwing three interceptions in losses to Cleveland and the Chargers by riddling the Falcons with a season-high four TD strikes. And for the third time in eight games he didn’t throw an interception. He’s still tied for the NFL lead with 10 picks, though.

There have been some high-scoring affairs between the teams with five of the last six games going OVER the closing total. Jackson should be itching to return against a Miami squad that he’s lit up in the past. When the teams last met during the 2023 season, Jackson was 18 of 21 for 321 yards and five TDs. He’s thrown 14 TD passes in four career starts against the Dolphins with Baltimore averaging more than 40 points. The teams split those four games but the Ravens have won seven of the last 10 meetings going 8-2 ATS.
