XXXX. We break down how they can clinch a spot in the 2025 NFL Playoffs in Week 16.
The Baltimore Ravens aren’t just locked in a race for the AFC North division with the Pittsburgh Steelers, they are fighting for a wild card berth in the postseason. They can make a huge dent in the division race this weekend clinch a playoff spot in the process.
Baltimore at 9-5 comes into Week 16 in fifth place in the AFC, and with the Chargers in on Thursday, the Ravens are a half-game up on both Los Angeles and Denver.

Notre Dame’s commanding win over the Indiana Hoosiers on Friday night set off a firestorm of SEC superiority, from a conference that loves to hold other teams to standards theirs can’t live up to.
The most obvious example is Ole Miss head coach Lane Kiffin, who ignored his own team’s three terrible losses to unranked teams to criticize the College Football Playoff committee.

Patrick Mahomes is apparently not of this Earth.
Earlier this week, on Monday to be precise, Mahomes wasn’t certain he’d be able to play against the Houston Texans on Saturday because of a high ankle sprain. The injury had him hobbling around the Kansas City training facility and on a schedule for full-time treatment.
Well, the injury got progressively better as documented by OutKick on Friday. But what he did in Saturday’s first series against the Texans was, well, freakish.
Mahomes, his ankles heavily taped, scrambled out of the pocket on a 12-yard run.

The Ravens are a 6.5-point favorite at FanDuel Sportsbook for this matchup.

The Yankees and first baseman Paul Goldschmidt have reached agreement on a one-year contract worth $12.5 million, sources told ESPN.

Indiana is getting savagely roasted on social media after losing to Notre Dame.
The Hoosiers lost 27-17 to the Fighting Irish in the opening round of the College Football Playoff Friday night.
Unfortunately for Indiana fans, the Hoosiers were never in control of the game. Marcus Freeman’s team did what it wanted for large chunks of the matchup and dominated down the stretch.
Unfortunately for the Hoosiers, the losses didn’t stop on the field. The internet is being ruthless with its reactions on social media.
