The Baltimore Ravens kept their playoff hopes alive on Sunday. Their Week 15 win over the Cincinnati Bengals was their best performance of the year, and given their tight squeeze in the AFC playoff picture, the momentum shift could not have come at a better time.
After losing two straight to AFC North foes, fans were losing faith in Baltimore. Those two losses were ugly. However, a shutout win completely shifted the way people are viewing them. People are starting to believe again, and given the way in which they dominated on Sunday, there is reason to believe the Ravens can work their way back into the playoffs.
