The Baltimore Ravens get to watch the first round of the NFL postseason on their couches. Not because they didn’t make the cut but because they’re the best team in the league and clinched the No. 1 seed in the AFC playoff picture, granting them a first-round bye.
While we kick off our playoff fix without Baltimore, it gave us here at Ravens Wire a chance to dig into some bold predictions for Baltimore’s postseason run. Each writer thought of the craziest but still logically possible prediction for the 2019 playoffs.
Matthew Stevens:
We see Robert Griffin III and other backups in at least one fourth-quarter
Baltimore has been dominant this season, especially down the stretch against many of the teams that find themselves in the playoffs right now. Because of that dominance, we got a chance to see backups like quarterback Robert Griffin III come into the game in the fourth quarter of five different games.
I don’t think the Ravens’ dominance is quite over yet and we’ll once again see Baltimore with such a huge lead in a game that Griffin gets a chance to flex his muscles in the postseason as well.
