For the first time since Week 1, the Ravens have Sunday off ahead of their "Monday Night Football" showdown in Tampa Bay.
Here are five teams Ravens fans should root during Sunday's slate:
Tennessee Titans (1-4) @ Buffalo Bills (4-2)
1 p.m., FOX
The Ravens are tied with the Bills in the AFC standings, but Baltimore has the head-to-head tiebreaker from its 35-10 win over Buffalo. The Titans are reeling right now, so adding another loss to the Bills' record would be a plus for the Ravens.
Root for: Titans
Cincinnati Bengals (2-4) @ Cleveland Browns (1-5)
1 p.m., CBS
The Browns are in a big hole in the AFC North race and host a Bengals team that's coming off a win and trying to push its way back to the top of the division. There's still a lot of season to be played, but the further the Bengals sink, the better for the Ravens.
Root for: Browns
Houston Texans (5-1) @ Green Bay Packers (4-2)
1 p.m., CBS
Anytime an AFC team plays and NFC team, Ravens fans should be cheering against their conference. That's especially true in this showdown with the Texans a game ahead of Baltimore in the AFC standings. A Houston loss Sunday could be meaningful for the Ravens when jockeying for playoff seeding.
Root for: Packers
Kansas City Chiefs (5-0) @ San Fransico 49ers (3-3)
4:25 p.m., FOX
The Chiefs are the AFC's lone unbeaten team and have a game and a half on Baltimore, plus the tiebreaker. The Ravens have a lot of ground to make up to surpass the Chiefs in the standings, but a Kansas City loss to an NFC team would do nothing but help Baltimore. This is a Super Bowl LVIII rematch.
Root for: 49ers
New York Jets (2-4) @ Pittsburgh Steelers (4-2)
8:20 p.m., NBC/Peacock
The Steelers are tied atop the AFC North with the Ravens and will make a change a quarterback this week going from Justin Fields to Russell Wilson. A bad offensive showing from Pittsburgh could raise a ton of questions and throw a wrench into a solid Steelers season so far. The Jets are bringing new wide receiver Davante Adams, who the Steelers were reportedly interested in, to Pittsburgh.
Root for: Jets
