NFL Preview - New Orleans (10-3) at Baltimore (9-4)

While the New Orleans Saints' offense is rounding into the form that made the team Super Bowl champions a season ago, the Baltimore Ravens are just happy to have walked away with a win last time out despite blowing another fourth-quarter lead.

New Orleans and Baltimore, a pair of second-place teams facing one-game deficits in the standings over their respective divisions coming down the stretch, now try to move closer to a playoff spot this Sunday at M&T Bank Stadium.

The 10-3 Saints carry a six-game winning streak into this contest and are one game back of the first-place Atlanta Falcons in the NFC South. The Ravens, at 9-4, trail the AFC North-leading Pittsburgh Steelers by a game as well and have won three of four and five of their last seven outings.

Both clubs face multiple scenarios this weekend in which they can clinch a playoff spot.
