Playoff Power Rankings, Betting Odds: Where Do Ravens Land Entering Postseason?
The Baltimore Ravens will not participate in the NFL's Super Wild Card Weekend as the No. 1 seed in the AFC, but they have hopes of a Super Bowl run in the weeks ahead.
Sporting News recently released its playoff power rankings complete with betting odds to win the Super Bowl, and, obviously, the Ravens are high on the list, but maybe not as high as one would think. Baltimore comes in at No. 2, directly behind the San Francisco 49ers who lost to the Ravens in a 33-19 blowout in Week 16.
2. Baltimore Ravens, AFC No. 1 seed (+330)
The Ravens are more likely to deliver in this prime position than they were in Lamar Jackson's first MVP season four years ago. They are more dangerous and versatile with both the run and pass. They can rush the passer from many angles and cover a lot of ground in their back-seven. The run defense actually can be exploited, but that's about their only weakness.
Everyone seems high on the 13-4 Ravens entering the playoffs, but their odds to win the Super Bowl are also worse than the 49ers who come in at +215.
Baltimore has the luxury of a first round bye as well as home field advantage throughout the playoffs as the AFC's No. 1 seed, but it will have to watch the action this weekend to determine who it will face in the divisional round next week. The NFL's Super Wild Card Weekend is set to begin on Saturday afternoon.
