The Ravens punctuated perhaps the best regular season in franchise history with a 56-19 thrashing of the Dolphins in Week 17. Baltimore outgained Miami by 3.2 yards per play, 116 net yards and won the turnover battle three to one. With the dominant victory, the Ravens have secured the AFC’s top playoff seed, a postseason bye, home field advantage in the playoffs, and an opportunity to rest their starters in Week 18.
