The Baltimore Ravens will be on the couch this weekend enjoying their bye with an 9-3 record through 12 games.

A late bye means the Ravens will have the opportunity to watch some key games this week as it pertains to the AFC playoff picture.

Here's a look at five games the Ravens and their fans should keep a closer eye on this weekend ...

Dolphins vs. Commanders - Sunday, 1 p.m. ET

If DMV football fans are looking for somewhere to go on Sunday, perhaps FedEx Field may be an option. The Washington Commanders host the Miami Dolphins in a game that could affect the Ravens' playoff standing.

If Baltimore's neighbors can pull of an upset win, the Ravens will be one game ahead of the Dolphins in the standings.

Cardinals vs. Steelers - Sunday, 1 p.m. ET

Perhaps the biggest game on this list pits the Arizona Cardinals against the Pittsburgh Steelers at Acrisure Stadium. The Steelers can move to one game back and can still control their own destiny in the AFC North race with a win.

Browns vs. Rams - Sunday, 4:25 p.m. ET

This game is important for a few reasons. Not only is the AFC North playoff race affected with the Cleveland Browns, but the Ravens can get a good chance to scout the Los Angeles Rams before they play them coming off the bye in Week 14.

Chiefs vs. Packers - Sunday, 8:20 p.m. ET

The whole nation will be seated for this one.

The defending Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs look for their ninth win of the season when they visit the Green Bay Packers.

Bengals vs. Jaguars - Monday, 8:15 p.m. ET

Not only could this game bury the Cincinnati Bengals even further in the AFC North doldrums, but it could also give the Jacksonville Jaguars their ninth win of the year, creating what could be a very crowded playoff race in December.
