Don’t panic and abandon your strengths:

No matter what happens, you have to stay cool, calm, and collected.

This Baltimore Ravens team is far from perfect and to make it to Super Bowl LV they’ll have to face some absolute juggernauts. The Kansas City Chiefs are not the only team that will give the Ravens trouble. It starts this weekend with the Tennessee Titans. If Baltimore can beat them, they’ll still have a slew of teams that will give them problems, such as the Buffalo Bills. These three teams in particular will be the biggest test for the Ravens, as it will be tasked with stopping prolific offenses.

The key to winning these games is fairly simple: no matter what happens, do not abandon what you do best. For Baltimore, that’s running the football and playing clutch defense.

The run game has been hot lately, resulting in the Ravens repeating as the league’s number one rushing attack behind Lamar Jackson’s 1,000-yard season. Paired with J.K. Dobbins and Gus Edwards, Baltimore can run better than anyone else in the league.

Defensively, the unit has the ability to bite down when pinned against a wall. Of course, we want to see the defense stand tall more often than not, but it does say a lot that when push comes to shove they’re more often than not winning that fight.

The bottom line here is that all these things must happen to make a run, but most importantly is maintaining your identity. If the Baltimore Ravens can trust who they are and not stray from what they do best, few teams can stop them from attaining their goals.
