In case you missed it, there was some really on-point big-picture analysis of the Ravens’ 2016 season from safety Eric Weddle after Sunday’s loss to the New York Giants.
He said the team could easily be 6-0. Or 0-6. Or 5-1. Or 2-4. Basically, any permutation of wins and losses that adds up to six.
It’s true. The Ravens’ games have all been close, back-and-forth affairs decided in the final minutes. They won three in a row to start the season, and now they’ve lost three in a row. But with just a few plays and bounces going the other way, they could have started with three straight losses, followed by three straight wins.
