AFC Playoff Picture: Baltimore Ravens lurking after third straight win
Baltimore Beatdown Baltimore Beatdown

The Baltimore Ravens have won three straight games coming off their bye and with a huge AFC playoff race game on Sunday night, they could be within striking distance of the AFC North lead by Monday morning.

The AFC North-leading Pittsburgh Steelers play the wild card-leading Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday Night Football, and with a Steelers loss, Baltimore would be one game back in the division. And the Ravens and Steelers still have two games against each other in 2025.

The Buffalo Bills and Jacksonville Jaguars both lost in the wild card picture. It’s going to be a wild finish to the season.
