12. team. 26. . 7-5. . Baltimore Ravens

Boy, that was an impressive win over a hot Dolphins team, wasn’t it?

Baltimore’s 38-6 victory in Week 13 showed what can happen for head coach John Harbaugh’s group if all cylinders are firing on both sides of the ball. The Ravens defense was exceptional, and Harbaugh’s offense got the most out of quarterback Joe Flacco.

The Ravens’ hot start — getting out to a 24-point lead by halftime — allowed Baltimore to put things in cruise control over the second half. But 14 more points in the fourth quarter was even more impressive.

With the Pittsburgh Steelers also winning in Week 13, the race is on for command of the AFC North.
