Rest:

Phew. Thursday night games are the absolute worst and I’m not even playing the game. I couldn’t imagine going from playing a tight and physical game on Sunday, and doing it again just four days later. Yet, the Ravens took care of their business this week to pick up another win and because of that, they’ll get a little extended rest and relaxation.

Harbaugh noted the team would be off until Tuesday, effectively giving the players a mini bye week at the end of the season. It might not seem like much but you better believe Baltimore will be a far healthier team for it. And if the Ravens can lock in a first or second seed to get a first-round bye in the postseason, it’ll feel even better once the games really start to matter.
