In recent years the Ravens have become known more as the team with Schrodinger’s elite quarterback and less as a team that could contend for anything meaningful. Last year that started to change. The defense turned into an elite unit Youth Eric Reid Jersey , finishing with the 3rd best defensive DVOA. Meanwhile the offense stayed sputtering, especially through the air, so the Ravens used the 2018 offseason to revamp their receiving corps and surround Joe Flacco with legitimate weapons. It appears to be working. The Ravens replaced the ghosts of Jeremy Maclin and Mike Wallace with John Brown, Michael Crabtree, and Willie Snead. All three have caught at least one touchdown thus far and all are on pace to eclipse 750 yards receiving. It’s a much needed addition since their running game hasn’t found its footing yet in 2018. They should get it together on the ground, though. Alex Collins is one of the most difficult backs in the NFL to tackle and Javorious Allen is a capable change of pace and receiving back. All those additions bump the Ravens offense up from bad to pretty good Stitched Eric Reid Jersey , but that’s all it needs to be with their defense. The Ravens currently sit first in the NFL in total defense, second in pass defense, and fifth in scoring defense. They’ve limited opponents to just 5.1 yards per attempt and have held opposing passers to a 67.6 rating, best and second best in the league respectively. The Panthers will be coming home after two straight difficult road games, the latter of which is against the Super Bowl champion Eagles. Should the Panthers pull off a victory in Philadelphia, it wouldn’t be surprising for the team to suffer a let down on their home turf against a team they don’t see often and hasn’t yet garnered much national recognition. There’s a good chance the Panthers will struggle to move the ball on offense Youth Matt Paradis Jersey , and the Ravens offense is now capable enough to take advantage of turnovers and good field position. The Panthers may not have the horses to cover the Ravens three-deep wide receiving corps nor the speed to stick with John Brown deep down the field. The Ravens are very underrated and pose a lot of match-up problems for the Panthers. The Panthers have won seven straight home games, but a visit from the Ravens could be spell the end of that streak. I don’t think Ron Rivera was trying to channel an unflattering meme when he said that “all you need is a chance” during his press conference this morning. His reference was to the fact that the Panthers season is not mathematically over. As desperate as many Panthers fans feel for change, whether it be on or off the field, the idea of looking at the playoffs on the heels of a five game losing stretch seems a little pie eyed, at best. But that is, for better or worse Stitched Matt Paradis Jersey , Rivera’s job. He is supposed to try to seize opportunities and maximize his team’s chances for success. In 2018, that means following any path to the playoffs that still exists.The Panthers do not, at present, control their own destiny. Their path to the playoffs requires a loss by the Minnesota Vikings and a loss by Washington. They also can’t realistically lose another game. All of this things are technically possible. As Rivera said, all you need is a chance.To calculate that chance, FiveThirtyEight has a fun tool to predict the playoffs. You can tell it who you think will win what games and it will tell you how that affects a team’s chances. For example Youth Shaq Thompson Jersey , the Panthers currently stand at a nine percent chance to make the playoffs by their metrics. A win against New Orleans on Monday Night Football changes that to a 24% chance. Winning out jumps them to a 75% chance, hinging on the likelihood that Minnesota and Washington drop at least one game apiece.Any loss by the Panthers becomes endlessly complicated. The tiebreakers this year in the NFC are spread across a range of teams with mixed and middling records. Until they are eliminated, we have to follow Rivera and company’s philosophy that there is a chance. What we don’t have to do, is get mired in the minutiae of those chances. Rooting for losses and wins across the league gets confusing. It’s Fantasy Playoff season, I have enough conflicting loyalties as it is.Instead, I recommend playing with the calculator I linked above and picking a path that works for you. I am rooting for three ties for the Panthers. Each game will be impossibly stressful and ultimately hilarious Stitched Shaq Thompson Jersey , which is to say worth watching. Fivethirtyeight says there is a 4% chance of making the playoffs if the Panthers tie the Falcons once and the Saints twice in the final three weeks of the season. If all I need is a chance then I know which one I’m taking.
