Stunningly, the Baltimore Ravens enter their Week 13 matchup with the Cincinnati Bengals perched atop the AFC North. Their win over the New York Jets this past Sunday was not pretty, but they are clearly one of the hottest teams in the NFL.
Ravens fans can be thankful for Defensive Coordinator Zach Orr, who has led a defensive renaissance following their Week 7 bye. Versatile safety Kyle Hamilton has been perhaps the biggest factor in this surge, but so have several other impactful defenders.
Stars in linebacker Roquan Smith and defensive tackle Travis Jones have helped change the tone.
