Notes -
You seem to be sleeping on the Steelers. They too beat the Ravens. Philly is obviously a good team but so are the Steelers and maybe the Ravens are slightly overrated (I certainly think Lamar Jackson is the most overrated QB in a long time).
Why do you think Jackson is overrated? He either leads the league or is close to leading the league in pretty much every relevant statistical category.

Steelers will be underdogs at the Linc, but every Steelers' game is essentially a pick 'em at worst, so it's not so much that I'm sleeping on them as that it doesn't really matter unless we're talking about the one seed race with Detroit.
I'd bet Eagles over Steelers if I got odds on the Eagles over +150, but I won't get those odds so I won't bet against the Steelers.
The Eagles will be favorites in every remaining game save maybe Redskins away, but they'll probably drop 1 or 2. If they lose 2 against Pittsburgh and Washington they have a decent chance of losing 3 when they roll out Kenny Pickett and the Replacements against the Giants with nothing to play for.
