OWINGS MILLS, Md. (AP) — There's really nothing about the past that interests the Baltimore Ravens in relation to their playoff game against the Tennessee Titans on Saturday night.
The 21-0 win over the Titans in the 2018 season is irrelevant, given how much has changed since then. Baltimore's NFL-best 14-2 record this season got them home-field advantage and a first-round bye, but as guard Marshal Yanda noted, “The records are gone right now. The guys who got into the playoffs, you respect them. They’re there for a reason."
The Titans (10-7) are in this position because they upset the New England Patriots 20-13 on the road last Saturday.
