Cripes, the Ravens have played 18 road games vs. playoff teams over the last 3 seasons. No wonder I'm always so tired. These things are grueling.

If the Ravens and Colts win, the Ravens are looking at their 4th trip to Foxboro in the last two seasons.

If the Ravens and Jets win, it's off to Pittsburgh for the 5th time in the last three seasons.

Would love to earn some homefield advantage one of these years.

Updated - turned out these records really didn't offer a lot of meaningful predictive information. Ravens now going for their 20th road game vs. a playoff team in the past three seasons.
