It’s time to start thinking about tiebreakers for 2018. Before tiebreakers with other conference opponents are considered (we’ll do so in future weeks), the Ravens are going to need to outlast the Bengals outright or in a set of divisional tiereakers which could go either way.
Here are the NFL Tiebreaker rules.
An important thing to note is that divisional ties are broken first, before WC ties outside the division are resolved. The divisional tiebreaker is critical to the Ravens, because it’s likely either the Chiefs or Chargers will win the number 5 seed (first Wild Card spot).
