NFL Playoff Picture 2025-26, Standings, Bracket Scenarios After Ravens vs. Dolphins

The Baltimore Ravens won’t finish Week 9 in a playoff position, but they did put more pressure on the Pittsburgh Steelers in the AFC North with Thursday’s win over the Miami Dolphins.
Baltimore, now with a healthy Lamar Jackson, moved to 3-5, one game back of the AFC North-leading Steelers in the win column.
Baltimore still has five games within the AFC North, including two against the Steelers, so it is a serious player in the playoff discussion.
The conversation becomes even more concerning from a Pittsburgh standpoint if Mike Tomlin’s team loses on Sunday against the AFC-leading Indianapolis Colts.
