Baltimore Headed To New England In Playoffs After Beating Oakland

Ravens blog Baltimore Beat Down is excited after the Baltimore Ravens clinched a playoff berth today by beating the Oakland Raiders 21-13 behind three Willis McGahee TDs. The Ravens qualify for the playoffs two years in a row for only the second time in franchise history (assuming you don’t count all those years they were the Browns). It’s exciting but there’s still a lot of question marks heading into the playoffs:

The Ravens (9-7) needed a win to get into the postseason and McGahee put the team on his back with his 167-yard performance on 16 carries, which included a 77-yard touchdown run.

Baltimore, a wild card team, will play on the road against either New England or Cincinnati next week.
