Date

• The AFC’s fifth-seeded Baltimore Ravens, who have won sixstraight games – inluding a 20-13 Wild Card battle last Sunday at No. 4 Tennessee – have advanced to the Divisional Round of the playoffs for the eighth time during John Harbaugh’s 13 seasons at the helm. • In 2020, Baltimore earned its third-straight playoff berth – and ninth overall under Coach Harbaugh – by posting an 11-5 record after closing out regular season play with five-consecutive victories. • After starting the season 5-1, the Ravens dropped four of their next five games while battling injuries to several key players and fighting their way through multiple COVID-19 cases that saw nine starters (including QB Lamar Jackson and six other Pro Bowlers) miss the Week 12 game at Pittsburgh. (That game was re-scheduled three times before finally being played on Wednesday, Dec. 2.)
