  • A defensive shift putting safety Kyle Hamilton closer to the line has preceded a four-game stretch allowing 14.5 points per game, per ESPN.
  • Lamar Jackson’s return has stabilized the offense after a 1-5 start, with analysts citing a more balanced, resilient team.
  • Multiple outlets elevated the Ravens into the league’s top tier, including No. 10 in Sports Illustrated’s latest power rankings.
  • Five AFC North games remain, including two against Pittsburgh, as some analysts caution about lapses versus weaker opponents.
