I think they probably make it. Here's how I see the whole thing.
Ravens players injured, including the KC game.
Lamar knows he can't pull the team back to a win and wants to preserve his stats.
Hamstring injury, out 2-3 weeks.
They may win one game.
Injured players start to come back, including Lamar.
They go on a run and make the playoffs.
Lamar for MVP.
