5 Things I Learned From 2014's NFL Wild Card Round
The Ravens Are Better Than You Think
Again, we really should make no assumptions about the Steelers with a healthy Le'Veon Bell. This is especially true considering the Ravens ranked fifth in our power rankings entering the playoffs, with a nERD score that was over two points better than Pittsburgh's. They were analytically better this year.
You can't sleep on the Ravens. In fact, the team that won the Super Bowl a couple of years ago was considerably worse than this one.
