Baltimore Ravens defender Marlon Humphrey has called this weekend's crucial game "script-worthy," suggesting the drama is fit for a movie.
His comment comes before a high-stakes Sunday night matchup. The Ravens host the Pittsburgh Steelers with the AFC North division title on the line.
In sports, "scripted" is slang for a storyline that seems too dramatic to be real. Humphrey used it to describe the long-running rivalry and the playoff implications of this single game.
The winner will claim the division and a higher seed in the upcoming playoffs. The loser faces a more difficult path to the championship.
