5-5. . Baltimore Ravens. 18. team. 26.

Yes, a 5-5 team currently sits as the AFC North leader.

The Baltimore Ravens can’t feel too bad about losing 27-17 to a red-hot Dallas Cowboys squad, and head coach John Harbaugh’s team can feel pretty good about hosting the floundering Bengals at home this upcoming week.

Veteran wide receiver Steve Smith continues to do amazing things at this stage in his career. And quarterback Joe Flacco was productive enough to keep Baltimore in contention over four quarters.

But those 12 penalties for 136 yards sure hurt any chances of a Week 11 upset.
