At this point, I just can't see the Ravens making the playoffs. I love it how every time the Ravens do better than expected, the fan base talks playoffs, only to be disappointed when they fall short or are one-and-done. Technically, I can pull up the old season prediction threads, and I challenge anyone to say that the playoffs were within reach for the Ravens this year.
For me, the bottom line is that I predicted a 4-12 season (or, at best, 5-11). These extra wins so far have been gravy and I'm really enjoying. It shows just how good this team (this offense in particular!) is going to be next year.
I don't see the Ravens making the playoffs. When they can beat two teams with winning records (and the Eagles do not count, as they were 5-5 when the Ravens faced them, and therefore not a winning team), then maybe I'll start expecting the Ravens to reach the playoffs. Until then, they need to beat the Bengals. And then Washington. And then the Steelers.
Coincidentally, I believe that any chance the Ravens have at the playoffs rest with their final game of the season. But again, they have to beat two winning teams first. Can they do it? So far, they haven't been able to. We'll soon find out.
