The Baltimore Ravens are still in the playoff hunt after Week 17, and Shannon Sharpe has a radical idea about what they should do for their final game.

On Saturday, John Harbaugh's squad dominated the Green Bay Packers 41-24 on the road to prevent elimination. Then, on Sunday, they got another break when the the division-leading Pittsburgh Steelers lost 13-6 at the already-eliminated Cleveland Browns to force a winner-take-all showdown in Week 18.

And after that game, Sharpe suggested that the Ravens keep Lamar Jackson on the sidelines for Tyler Huntley, who had 107 yards and a touchdown to Zay Flowers during the win at Lambeau:

"Some might see this as a hot take, but IF* I’m the Ravens. I’m going with Huntley as my starter. King Henry getting at least 30 carries more IF* needed."
