5. Baltimore Ravens
The Baltimore Ravens are 8-5, but they are trending in the wrong direction. They’ve now lost two straight games and Lamar Jackson left Sunday’s game with some kind of ankle injury. Of all the teams on this list, the Ravens are the team that I think has the widest possibility of outcomes. This is a team that could win three out of four to end the year and will be one of the tougher teams in the AFC playoffs. Or…they could lose three out of four and not make the playoffs at all. Their schedule is a tough one.
- vs Green Bay Packers
- at Cincinnati Bengals
- vs Los Angeles Rams
- vs Pittsburgh Steelers
I think the Ravens could both win or lose any of those four games. If you wanted to argue that with how they’ve played the last few games they are going to struggle and should be lower on the list, I wouldn’t argue with you. If you wanted to argue that they still have one of the highest upsides in the AFC and should be a spot or two higher, I wouldn’t argue with you either.
Next up, a team many may be surprised to see this high still.
