Ravens are in the top 5. Sorry, they are.

Two teams that will be a definite go-against in the playoffs:

Ravens and the Packers

Neither can defend when it counts, they have bad defensive special teams and the Ravens lead the league in penalities.

I might give GB a break based on injuries but, the Ravens will be going no where as their defense was bad before the injuries.

Just behind them are the Falcons on the one and done list.

QB consistency is the key to being a elite top 5 team IMHO and that is one thing the Ravens lack...Plus a senior citizen defense...Flacco is 1st to always toot his horn but plays like a medium QB at best.....Sorry Jack....

Baltimore's D is weak, they will not go far on the road having to rely on winning shoot-outs.

Nothing means shit until you HAVE to win.

You guys might be right and maybe not.

Granted, they haven't looked good lately but it hasn't mattered yet.

Even next week doesn't matter, really.

It matters when it comes to elimination.

We will see.

Ravens win their division unless PIT/CIN tie and Ravens lose the last 3. First PO game at home. :0corn

Thanks for calling me out, OS :0008

PIT and CIN have to win remaining games except TIE the game they play each other and hope Ravens lose all 3 remaining for Ravens to not win division.

I think everyone is beatable in the NFL. Nobody dominates weekly, not even close. The playoffs will see some upsets, nobody is really a clear cut favorite to walk into the SB. If you look at the top teams in each conference, theres not alot of distance between them.
