The Baltimore Ravens and their new-look offense dominated the 2019 season, until they had an off day at the worst time. Since then, the Ravens have continued to make moves that look, on paper, to have improved their team even more.

Because of this, they have the best shot at a perfect 16-0 regular season, according to the odds, with FanDuel Sportsbook giving them +3000 odds to accomplish this historic feat.

Last season, the Ravens finished the regular season with an NFL-best 14-2 record. Their two losses came in back-to-back weeks early on. Afterwards, the offense found its rhythm, winning 12 straight games by an average of 17.8 points per game (PPG).

With the team being just two missteps away from a perfect season last year and the improvements Baltimore made in the offseason, it's easy to see how the Ravens are the most likely team to have a perfect season, according to the odds.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers (+8000) are the only other team with a prop to have an undefeated regular season. That is an absolutely massive gap between the two, and it speaks to just how talented this Ravens team is.

Of course, the most likely outcome is that no team goes undefeated in 2020. But if any team is capable of pulling it off, it's probably the Ravens.
