Who Should the Ravens Root For?

Any remaining hopes of the Ravens catching up to the Chiefs in the AFC playoff picture were extinguished last week. Instead, Baltimore will take any help they can get in the Wild Card race. The Ravens currently sit a half-game behind the Chargers, who entered Week 14 with the 5 seed. Baltimore possess the tiebreaker over Los Angeles, so a Chiefs win would give the Ravens the AFC’s top Wild Card spot.
