The Atlanta Falcons face the Baltimore Ravens on Saturday, Christmas Even in Week 16, and they need rookie quarterback Desmond Ridder to step up his game after a rocky first start. Both Ridder and head coach Arthur Smith need to get on the same page this week, getting off to a better start to challenge a tough, physical Ravens defense. But they should be able to rely on a physical Falcons ground attack with winter weather looming for Saturday's matchup. Kevin Oestreicher (@LockedOnRavens) and Aaron Freeman break down other key matchups, including if tight end Mark Andrews will have his "get right" game against a Falcons defense that struggles to defend tight ends. Kevin focuses on the battle along the Ravens' interior offensive line against Grady Jarrett, and they wonder if we'll see cornerback Marlon Humphrey matched up frequently against Drake London. They give their score predictions, believing that it'll be a close, lower-scoring affair where a timely turnover from either team may decide the outcome.
