The first four weeks seem doable, with the Colts and the Cowboys in Brazil representing the biggest challenges. Those international games are always weird, and I wouldn’t be surprised to see that game lead to a loss and some early-season stumbles. The late BYE can be a killer if wear and tear plays in, but I do like that it gives the Ravens the chance to get back to better health with four straight division opponents to end their slate.

If I’m guessing now, my gut says 12-5. — Kevin McNelis It’s a tough schedule. International games can be difficult on teams, but the Ravens get a lighter beginning schedule to pair with the trip down to Rio.

The schedule gets difficult starting in Week 7. The back-to-back primetime games are rough on the body and finishing with four straight division games is not a great set up for success. However, I love the late bye leading into it.
