The Baltimore Ravens just put on a master class vs. the Pittsburgh Steelers.
John Harbaugh’s team never let go of the lead.
Derrick Henry and Lamar Jackson kept the chains in motion, and their defense got some crucial stops and made big plays.
That’s why several people, including NFL analyst Mark Schlereth, believe the Ravens could legitimately take down any other team in the league, including the Kansas City Chiefs if they play this way.
Talking on FOX’s “Breakfast Ball,” Schlereth argued that the Ravens might be the best team in the league when they’re at their best, but he also questioned their ability to be at their best when it matters the most.

He pointed out how much Lamar Jackson has struggled in the playoffs in the past, which is why there are some reasons to doubt this team going forward.
The Ravens were the best team in the league last season, but that didn’t do much to help when they needed to get a win.
Once again, they struggled when the lights got the brightest, and Jackson, fresh off winning MVP, left a lot to be desired in the AFC Championship Game vs. the eventual champions.
From a football perspective, the Baltimore Ravens are almost flawless.
Now, it’ll all be about delivering when they have to deliver, as they now control their destiny in the division and should have a favorable path in the playoffs.
