NFL power rankings entering Week 8 of the 2025 season ( previous rank in parentheses ):

Baltimore is 1-5, and depending on whom you ask, they trade everyone but Lamar Jackson, push all the chips towards the center of the table, and rebuild the roster around their MVP quarterback. With 11 games remaining, Baltimore needs to win at least nine to secure the likely double-digit wins required to earn one of the final AFC wild-card spots.

The Baltimore Ravens returned to practice on Monday, butLamar Jackson did not participate. The team announced that Jackson was sidelined with a right hamstring injury, and it’s uncertain if he will play in the game against the Chicago Bears on Sunday.

NFL Week 8 action is on the horizon as we’ve officially reached the near halfway point of the season. In Week 7, our predicition of Colts +2 against the Chargers paid some dividends plus more as Indianapolis dominated Los Angeles. Daniel Jones and Jonathan Taylor paced the Colts’ high powered offense to a convincing win on the road.

Amid a 1-5 start to the season, the Baltimore Ravens appear to be headed for another disappointing finish after entering the year with Super Bowl aspirations.
