The Baltimore Ravens are 7-3 right now, yet some are still a bit doubtful about their chances of winning the AFC and reaching the Super Bowl for the first time during the Lamar Jackson era.
They will have a chance to prove they’re for real this Sunday when they visit the Pittsburgh Steelers, who are currently in first place in the AFC North with a 7-2 record.
Jackson, who is having an amazing season, was listed on Thursday’s injury report with a knee ailment, and he was a limited participant in practice, per the Ravens’ official X (formerly Twitter) account.

Jackson is the NFL’s reigning regular season MVP, and through 10 games this year, he’s playing the best football of his career with 2,669 passing yards, 24 touchdown passes and just two interceptions.
The Ravens currently rank first in both points scored and total yards, but their defense has been a problem.
The Steelers’ offense has been significantly improved ever since Russell Wilson replaced Justin Fields as their starting quarterback, and therefore this could be an opportunity for them to make a major statement.
Pittsburgh is currently on a four-game winning streak, and they’re coming off a 28-27 win over the Washington Commanders, the surprise team of the season and the current leader of the NFC East.
