    Here's how!!!

    The Ravens always have a let down after this game, so they get beat by SD. The Steelers beat the Clowns and we play the Ravens again!!!! This time with Batch or Big Ben and we get a different result. It's all good!!!

    I can see the Chargers beating them. We also most beat them without two of our best offensive players. But, we can't beat them without Ben down at their place. They are a great home team. But, if we win the next two and they lose their next two it's possible. But, we have to get healthy.

    They'll need more than that. If all of your scenario plays out, the Ravens are still in line to win the division. They'll STILL control the tiebreakers.

    The hole the Steelers dug by losing to TN and Oak is a deep one. So deep that Balt losing to SD and Pit beating Cle and Balt the next week, doesn't get them out of it.

    You're correct about the tiebreakers. However, the schedule over the last 4 games drastically favors us. The Ravens have to finish with Washington, Denver, the Giants (when they will probably be awake again) and AT Cincinnati in the last week, with Cinci probably playing for the 6th playoff spot. IF we beat the Browns and Ravens, and the Ravens lose to SD, I really like our chances to go 12-4 while they go 11-5 - or worse.

    All that we can do right now is take care of business Sunday.

    The Ravens really don't have an easy game left- I suspect RG III will give them fits.

    As for the Steelers, 5 weeks ago I felt that they really needed to win the 2 Cincy games and SD to ensure the playoffs. One down, 2 to go. In fact, I'll say right now that if the Steelers win the rematch with Cincy, they will go in. I don't see the Colts doing better than 9-7 either.

    OMG we have 2 threads already about this. "Can" doesn't mean most likely. Hell if every division leading team loses thier next 6 and the jaguars win all theirs they can be in the playoffs as well...

    Unless we have to go to Denver again in which case I see dark things in our future. I mean man we HAVE to have Ryan Clark on the field. Without him our D is NOT gonna look good.

    again why to have to go to denver is a must ? , denver for me could be the 2nd seed if they beat baltimore anyway there are new england and baltimore in the mix for hosting the wild card too , so at least there is 66 % that we don't go to denver .....if we go somewhere ....
