The Baltimore Ravens need to win Saturday night against the Green Bay Packers to maintain any chance at all of making the playoffs, even just slim odds.
It could be tougher than they'd like, because Lamar Jackson is injured.
He's not the only QB injury, of course, which should make for a bizarre game on Saturday night.
Jordan Love has already been ruled out for the Packers. That sets up Malik Willis to start.
But that's not Baltimore's worry. Lamar is.

Is Lamar Jackson playing today?
It appears highly unlikely that Jackson will play on Saturday.
He's officially listed as doubtful on the Ravens' injury report.
Jackson is dealing with the back injury he hurt a week ago. He didn't participate at all in practice this week, which particularly for a QB means that starting the ensuing game is incredibly unlikely.
It's not clear why the Ravens haven't officially ruled Jackson out yet, but we'll know his official status at 6:30 p.m. ET on the inactives report.
If Jackson indeed sits out, Tyler Huntley will get the start, with Cooper Rush as his backup.
The Ravens' hopes, however slim, will then rest on Huntley.
