7 of our next 9 are against teams with running records currently. And potentially all 9 games are against playoff teams. We have one of the toughest if not the toughest strength of schedule remaining. We could end up going 4 and 5 or 5 and 4 and still end up fighting just to get into the playoffs. And based on how up and down we’ve been in terms of bringing our A game, I could see that happening.
What do y’all think?
The Ravens have 6 home games and 3 away games remaining, plus their bye in the first week of December. They start an important 3 game home stand this Sunday against Seattle, followed by Cleveland and Cincinnati on Thursday Night. That’s 3 games in 12 days.
The Ravens played 5 of their first 8 games on the road going 4-1, including trips to London and Arizona. However, over the next 7 weeks between this past Monday October 30 and before the December 17 SNF game at Jacksonville, they only have one away game on November 26 at the LA Chargers on SNF.
BTW, CBS Sports projects the Ravens to win 11.7 games with a 72.9% probability to win the AFC North and a 96.1% probability to make the postseason.

BTW, there is one key to the Ravens making the playoffs and then having a deep playoff run. We all know to well what that is.
