The Ravens, despite being 1-5 and in sole possession of the last spot in the AFC North with their favorable schedule, still have an impressive roster that gives them reason to be cautiously hopeful about their chances of going into a frenzy and making it to the playoffs.
Yahoo! Frank Schwab, Sports’ Frank Schwab, is not being cautious. Frank Schwab believes the Ravens are going to win the division and will have it secured before they take the field at Pittsburgh for the season finale, even though they trail the Steelers (4-2), who currently lead the division by three games.
Schwab told Yahoo! Sports Daily .” The Ravens will beat the Steelers in that division. The Ravens will be in the playoffs and they’ll be the team that nobody wants to face in January.
Schwab said the Ravens’ revival will start with the home game this Sunday against the Chicago Bears.
The Ravens have a six-and-a half-point advantage this week over the Bears. Schwab stated that the oddsmakers had not given up on Ravens, and neither had I. “I believe this Ravens’ team is about get really, really hot. I honestly, honestly believe, regardless of the results, that this is one of the top 10 teams in NFL. I’m going die on this mountain.
The Ravens will win Sunday. The Steelers will lose to the Packers. We all would have predicted that. They’re now only two games behind Steelers. The Steelers play them twice. “They’re going beat the Steelers.”
When “Yahoo! Caroline Fenton, co-host of Sports Daily, expressed doubts about the Ravens’ ability to surpass the Steelers and win the division. Schwab reaffirmed his belief, saying that Baltimore would do it “easily.”
It’s going be tough for the Ravens. The Ravens need to win 9 of their remaining 11 games in order to reach 10, which is widely considered the minimum required to make the playoffs.
The Steelers schedule is getting tougher. Five of their six next games will be against teams that have winning records. But anyone who writes off a Steelers team, which has never lost a game in the 18 years Mike Tomlin was head coach, does so at his own risk.
