One piece of the Championship Round NFL score projections we can reveal: Hartstein is predicting the Ravens beat the defending champions 27-20 at home. The Ravens are 7-1 in their last eight games and a perfect 5-0 in their last five meetings against opponents from the AFC West.Â
"The Chiefs just allowed 182 rushing yards to Buffalo, and they're liable to give up 200-plus to Lamar Jackson, Justice Hill and company," Hartstein told SportsLine. "Patrick Mahomes will find it tougher going against a Ravens defense that just held Houston without an offensive TD."Â
