Week 8: BYE

2015 Record: 0-32
Head-to-Head Record: 20-0

Baltimore lucked out in that they got the bye at the midway point of the season once again. It’s a perfect time for the week off as the team can recuperate from the first half of the season, and be ready for a tough road ahead.

At this point in the season, the Ravens will need to at least have a record over .500 or better. The second half of the season will feature five games against AFC North opponents and two primetime games on the agenda. Every game matters now.

Injuries are inevitable in football, and after the last two seasons, everyone is hopeful that the injury bug has left the city of Baltimore. If the Ravens are still generally healthy at this time of the season, a playoff push should not be out of the question heading into a matchup against their bitter rivals.
