The Baltimore Ravens started their playoff campaign with a bang in the divisional round with a 34 to 10 win over the Houston Texans. 

This win advances the Ravens to the AFC Championship game, which will be the first time in their franchise's history that they host the game. 

When a team locks up the top seed in its conference, the most significant advantage given to the team is that they are guaranteed not to have to play a road playoff game. So, by earning the top seed in the AFC, the Ravens ensured that the AFC went through Baltimore. 

They now wait for the winner of the Buffalo Bills and Kansas City Chiefs divisional round matchup. No matter which team advances, it will set up an incredible matchup with two of the best QBs in the NFL, whether it's Lamar Jackson Vs. Josh Allen or Patrick Mahomes, the AFC Championship will be must-watch TV. That must-watch game will take place at M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore, Maryland. I think an altered version of the iconic words from Ravens head coach John Harbaugh sums it up the best. 

Who has it better than the Ravens right now? NOBODY!
