One could make the argument that the Ravens were just one foot short of making the playoffs for the 7th time in John Harbaugh’s nine seasons as the team’s skipper. One desperate extension of the ball at the goal line by Steelers’ wide receiver Antonio Brown proved to be the difference between a No. 3 seed in the AFC and the 16th pick in the 2017 NFL Draft.
On one hand, the play is a reminder of how close the Ravens are to being a playoff participant in a very mediocre league.
