HC John Harbaugh highlights Raven who's been 'major factor' to success

The Ravens (13-3) locked up the AFC's No. 1 seed with their dominant 56-19 win over the Dolphins (11-5) in Week 17. Baltimore has one of the most complete rosters in the NFL, but head coach John Harbaugh made sure to highlight one player who's been a big reason for the team's success.

"[Odell Beckham Jr.]'s a major factor out there. They're giving him attention ... and he's coming up with the ball," Harbaugh told reporters. "He's been in these big games. He's had great success. He knows what it takes."

The same couldn't be said at the beginning of the season. The 31-year-old had just 14 catches for 162 yards and zero touchdowns through the first eight games but has 21 catches for 403 yards and three touchdowns since.

Many believed Father Time had caught up to Beckham Jr., but he knew his time would come to make plays.

"It's a long season. It's about catching fire when you're supposed to," Beckham Jr. said in October. "So you do have to be optimistic about the season, and that's where I'm trying to stay in that mindset of there's a lot of opportunities."

The 2014 NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year's best days are clearly behind him, but he has proven to still have enough gas left in the tank in hopes of winning his second Super Bowl this season. Beckham Jr. seems to think the Ravens have a great opportunity to do just that.

"This is the best team I've ever been on from the top to the bottom," Beckham Jr. stated. "We set ourselves up for success. ... Everything is right in front of us."

After an underwhelming start to the season, Baltimore's $15 million investment in Beckham Jr. seems to finally be paying off and he'll likely continue playing a large role in the team's postseason run.
