Who Ravens Fans Should Root for in Week 15

week 15 who to root for

The Ravens are nearing another postseason appearance, but there are still plenty of unknowns with four weeks remaining. Baltimore is alive in the AFC North race but will need to stack up wins over the final month and hope the Steelers falter a bit.

Here's who Ravens fans should root for in Week 15:

Cincinnati Bengals (5-8) @ Tennessee Titans (3-10)

1 p.m., FOX

The Bengals are barely holding onto their postseason hopes, with just a 3% chance of making it, according to ESPN. A loss to the Titans would finish Cincinnati off, which would be a welcome sign for AFC contenders who don't want to see Joe Burrow and Ja'Marr Chase in January.

Root for: Titans

Miami Dolphins (6-7) @ Houston Texans (8-5)

1 p.m., CBS

The Dolphins and Colts are fighting for the final AFC Wild Card spot, and a loss to the Texans would nearly be the knockout blow for Miami. The Texans have a 94% chance to win the division, per ESPN, so their final record likely wouldn't affect the Ravens' seeding if Baltimore doesn't win the AFC North.

Root for: Texans

Indianapolis Colts (6-7) @ Denver Broncos (8-5)

4:25 p.m., CBS

A Colts loss could potentially inch Baltimore closer to clinching a postseason berth, but a Broncos defeat could help the Ravens' seeding if they don't win the division. The Ravens already have a 97% chance to make the playoffs, according to ESPN, so cheering for a better shot at the top Wild Card seed seems like the right call.

Root for: Colts

Buffalo Bills (10-3) @ Detroit Lions (12-1)

4:25 p.m., CBS

Despite being the No. 5 seed currently, the Ravens are still alive for the AFC's No. 2 slot. None of this matters unless the Ravens overtake the Pittsburgh Steelers for the AFC North title, but the Ravens only trail the Bills by two games, and Baltimore has the tiebreaker from its Week 4 rout over Buffalo. If the Ravens win the division, they can climb high in the seeding.

Root for: Lions

Pittsburgh Steelers (10-3) @ Philadelphia Eagles (11-2)

4:25 p.m., FOX

It's a battle between the Ravens and Steelers for the division, and it will come down to the final weeks. The Steelers have a two-game cushion, but they have a daunting schedule, traveling to Baltimore after the Eagles game and then facing the Kansas City Chiefs and Cincinnati Bengals. The formula for the Steelers is simple – beat the Ravens in Week 16 and win the division. The Ravens are still alive, but they will need Pittsburgh to take some losses.

Root for: Eagles

Tampa Bay Buccaneers (7-6) @ Los Angeles Chargers (8-5)

4:25 p.m., FOX

The Ravens hold the tiebreaker over the Chargers as both teams sit at 8-5. A Buccaneers win could give the Ravens another game over the Chargers in the AFC Wild Card standings.
