The Baltimore Ravens pulled off their fifth straight win on Monday night when they went to Tampa Bay and defeated the Buccaneers by a 41-31 difference.

After losing their first two games to open the season, the Ravens have proven to be able to turn the tide. Now, it is fair to look at Baltimore as one of the biggest Super Bowl contenders. They may just look like the best team in the NFL right now.

Lamar Jackson is playing at an elite level because of course he is. The Ravens offense is clicking and even tight end Mark Andrews has turned it on for Baltimore. Following the win over Tampa Bay, Andrews had the perfect word to explain this season for Baltimore.

"Resiliency – that's the big word for us,” said Andrews. “After those two losses, just going to work and focusing on how we can be better because we knew we were on the cusp of turning things over and being efficient and playing good ball.

“It's just the little things of football – not making the mistakes; little things of making big blocks; just lining up right, everything. The coaches, players, everybody – we're all on the same page, and that's what it is."

Andrews pulled in two touchdowns against the Buccaneers and has three in the last two games. After a quiet first month of the season, Andrews has multiple catches in each of the Ravens’ last three games.

Baltimore lost a lot in the offseason and after losing their first two games, the Ravens very well could have folded and ended up being average this season. Instead at 5-2 on the season, the Ravens have turned things around and are back near the top of the AFC.

If the Ravens keep playing at this level, they are going to be hard to beat and their winning streak will continue. If they remain resilient, they may just win a Super Bowl.
