Ravens’ Week 12 rooting guide

The Baltimore Ravens can win out and are guaranteed a playoff spot but a little help in Week 12 never hurt. Here’s four teams to root for

While the Bills are currently the fifth seed in the AFC playoff picture, they have a 7-3 record. That’s a little close for comfort for the Ravens in my opinion. A Buffalo loss this week would give Baltimore a little breathing room — a one-game lead even if the Ravens lose this week and a two-game lead if Baltimore wins. With only a few games remaining, that type of lead over any team is massive.

But Denver will have to come through this week. While the Broncos are 3-7 and just haven’t been good this season, they’ve been playing more competitive football over their last three games, including two losses to playoff-caliber teams. With a change at quarterback and more desperation setting in for Denver, the Broncos could be primed for a big game and a statement win this week.
