Ravens: Next team up
The Ravens weren't going to get ahead of themselves and reveal which team they want to play next week, but you can bet it isn't the New England Patriots in Foxborough. The Dolphins just took a seven-point lead over the Jets at the Meadowlands, and you can bet just about everyone in Baltimore would rather head south than north for the first round of the playoffs.
For one thing, the Ravens have already beaten the Dolphins on the road. For another, nobody wants to face a Bill Belichick team in the postseason, even one that's without star quarterback Tom Brady. The Pats are playing very well right now. Got to think everybody in the AFC would just as soon they don't get to play anymore this year.

Pete--do you know when the playoff schedule is announced? I can't seem to find anything about that anywhere yet.

Pete's reply: Could be any time now, or after the SD/Denver game. Waiting at the stadium for it.
