At 1-6, the Baltimore Ravens share the worst record in the NFL with the Detroit Lions. So, why aren't they considered the favorite to end up with the No. 1 overall pick?
Because of their upcoming schedule.
The Ravens finish the season by playing six of their final nine games at home, where Baltimore is usually strong (yes, the Ravens are 0-2 at M&T Bank Stadium this season). Baltimore also doesn't play a team that currently has a winning record until Dec. 27, when the Steelers (4-3) play at M&T Bank Stadium.
Their last nine opponents have a combined 27-33 record (.
