Are Ravens Favored to Repeat as AFC North Champions?
The Baltimore Ravens were on a mission last season. The best regular season record in the NFL, an AFC North division crown and the No. 1 seed in the AFC couldn't get them past the Kansas City Chiefs in the conference title game, however, and they'll run it back in 2024 with the same Super Bowl goal.
That all starts with the goal of another North title. The Ravens should be back at it next season with a run for the league's best record again, which could catapult Baltimore on another long playoff run.
The Cincinnati Bengals, Cleveland Browns and Pittsburgh Steelers will all be hurdles next season, as the Bengals will have quarterback Joe Burrow back and healthy once again and the Browns will look for a full season of Deshaun Watson.
Per FanDuel, Baltimore is a slight favorite to win the North again in 2024 at +100, while the Bengals are just behind at +175. Cleveland is next at +550 while the Steelers, who are still looking for a franchise quarterback, are last at +1200.
Ravens Reportedly Will Host Longhorns WR Xavier Worthy
Baltimore could have several different pieces on the field next season with some pending free agents, including wideout Odell Beckham Jr.
But with quarterback Lamar Jackson coming off another MVP season and soon-to-be second-year wideout Zay Flowers having a full season under his belt, the Ravens will be a force to be reckoned with not just in the AFC North, but in all of football.
