Raise your hand if you thought eight games into the 2024 NFL season you thought the Denver Broncos (5-3) and the Baltimore Ravens (5-3) would have identical records. Me neither. Sunday, they meet in Baltimore.
Winners of 5 of their last 6, the Broncos are right in the mix for a playoff berth in the AFC. A strong defense and rookie Bo Nix gaining confidence under center each week have the Broncos defying the preseason prognosticators. If they can survive the next three weeks – @ Baltimore, @ Chiefs, vs. Atlanta – they may well make the playoffs as they then enjoy a more favorable stretch against the Raiders, Browns, Colts, Chargers, and Bengals before finishing the season at home against the Chiefs.
The Ravens come into Sunday’s game fresh off one they let get away, losing in Cleveland to Jameis Winston and the Browns 29-24. That was a game they led 24-23 with under 3 minutes to go in the 4th Quarter. As a result of the loss, they sit 1 game behind the Steelers in the AFC North. They are in 2nd in the division despite averaging over 30 points per game. They are in 2nd despite having a running back run for just short of 1000 yards in 8 games. They are in 2nd despite having a 2-time NFL MVP under center who has thrown for 2100 yards in 8 games and thrown 17 TD passes and just 2 INTs. They are in 2nd because their defense has coughed up leads late in 4th quarters.
As the Broncos look to keep building and surprising people and the Ravens look finish games, lets dive into the matchup and find a sweat or two.
