Merry Christmas to The Flock! It's been a long season for the Ravens but Clinchmas came early as we clinched a playoff spot and kept our division title chances alive. The AFC Playoffs can be set this week if both the Broncos & Chargers win as they have win and in scenarios. The Bills are keeping the pressure on the Chiefs for Home Field advantage but a win on Christmas by the Chiefs guarantees the road to the Super Bowl goes through KC. The Vikings are keeping the pressure on the Lions for the NFC North & Home Field Advantage. Lots of games with playoff and division title implications on the line, the Giants hold the first pick in the Draft after the Raiders beat the Jaguars but have a host of 3 win teams behind them if they were to win one more game.

Critical Games This Week:
- Chiefs @ Steelers: Chiefs can clinch HFA with a win but in the event they lose, a Bills loss would clinch it.
- Chargers @ Patriots: Chargers can clinch a playoff spot in Jim Harbaugh's first season with a win over the Patriots.
- Broncos @ Bengals: Broncos win clinches a playoff spot for the first time since 2015, when they won Super Bowl 50.
- Cardinals @ Rams: Rams can clinch NFC West with a win + Seattle loss on Thursday to the Bears.
- Cowboys @ Eagles: Eagles clinch the NFC East with a win or Commander loss to the Falcons.
- Falcons @ Commanders: Falcons clinch the NFC South with a win and a Bucs loss to the Panthers
- Lions @ 49ers: The Lions can clinch the NFC North and HFA with a win on Monday Night and a Vikings loss on Sunday
 
Go Chiefs lol
 
That was such a stupid penalty on Worthy, all because he lifted his shirt up lol. Soft AF league.
 
Russ transforming back to Denver Russ these last 3 games. Will they go back to Fields?

Honestly it kind of reminds me a trend we saw a lot last year with teams. The backup would come in and look great for 4 games then suddenly fall down to earth. Seems weird to see it happen to someone with as much tape in them as Wilson but it happened yet again.
 
Love PQ dropping the easy interception. Steelers look terrible offensively, Bengals definitely can beat them next week.

they are playing a tougher schedule down the stretch as well.

Bengals making the playoffs is a scary thought. Thankfully we won’t have to see them until the later rounds if at all
