The Ravens are 8-5, and as the team comes out of the Week 14 bye, John Harbaugh’s team is still in a solid position to Land one of the seven AFC postseason spots.
With the team back at the Under Armour Performance Center, Roquan Smith wants the Ravens to essentially treat the remaining four-game stretch like the playoffs.

Baltimore has four games left in the regular season, and they have a 98% chance of making the playoffs.
Still, with Baltimore as the second-place team in the AFC North and current five seed, they would need Pittsburgh to lose multiple games down the stretch to have any shot at moving higher than the five seed, with No. 1 through No. 4 being division winners.
An embattled defense has only allowed four touchdowns over the past three games, but if both sides of the football can start to complement each other, the Ravens could be one of the most dangerous teams down the stretch.
