John Harbaugh remains confident the Baltimore Ravens can reach the postseason despite a 1-5 start. Since the NFL's first postseason in 1933, only 1% of teams starting 1-5 or worse have rebounded to make the playoffs, with four teams accomplishing it: 1970 Cincinnati Bengals, 2015 Kansas City Chiefs, 2018 Indianapolis Colts and 2020 Washington Football Team.

ESPN Analytics gives Baltimore a 24.8% chance of making the playoffs. Harbaugh cites talent, ability, work ethic and a care factor across the organization as reasons for optimism.
