The NFL schedule release took place on Wednesday night, and we now know what the regular season will look like for the Baltimore Ravens. The Ravens should once again be one of the best teams in the NFL, and Baltimore fans are excited for the season to start. Here are predictions for all 17 of their regular season games.

Week 1 at Kansas City Chiefs

The first game of the NFL season is going to be a good one as the Ravens will hit the road to take on the Chiefs on Thursday Night Football. Both of these teams should be Super Bowl contenders yet again, and this is a rematch of last year’s AFC Championship game. The Chiefs won that game, and they will win this one as well. LOSS

Week 2 vs. Las Vegas Raiders

Baltimore will make their home debut in week two against the Raiders, and this should be a good opportunity for them to bounce back after losing in week one to Kansas City. Las Vegas will be decent, but they won’t be able to go on the road and beat the Ravens. Baltimore gets it done in week two. WIN.

Week 3 at Dallas Cowboys

The Ravens have another huge game in week three as they will traveling to Dallas to take on the Cowboys. Dallas was one of the best teams during the regular season last year, and they are expected to have another good team this year. This is going to be a great game, and the Cowboys will survive at home. LOSS.

Week 4 vs. Buffalo Bills

Another big one for the Ravens in week four as the Bills will be coming to town for Sunday Night Football. Another consistent playoff team on the schedule for Baltimore in the early parts of the season. This is a difficult stretch, but the Ravens will get it done at home in this one to get back to .500. WIN.

Week 5 at Cincinnati Bengals

This week five matchup between the Ravens and Bengals is going to be a good one. It will feature a great quarterback battle between Lamar Jackson and Joe Burrow, and the Bengals will be hungry to get into the playoffs after missing last year. Expect a close one, but Baltimore will get a victory on the road. WIN.

Week 6 vs. Washington Commanders

The road finally gets a bit easier for the Ravens in week six when the Commanders come to Baltimore. The Commanders were one of the worst teams in football last season and that will likely be the case again this season. They are not going to be able to knock off the Ravens on the road. WIN.

Week 7 at Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Another primetime battle for the Ravens in week seven as they will play the Buccaneers on Monday Night Football. Tampa Bay made it to the playoffs last season and they are hoping to find a way back again this upcoming season. Getting a win against Baltimore would help the cause, and they are going to get it done. LOSS.

Week 8 at Cleveland Browns

The Ravens will be back on the road the following week to take on the Browns in Cleveland. Being on the road will present a challenge to Baltimore, but they shouldn’t have much trouble in this one. They will bounce back from their MNF loss the week prior. WIN.

Week 9 vs. Denver Broncos

The Broncos have a ton of question marks heading into the season, specifically at the QB position. They have moved on from Russell Wilson, but they now have Jarrett Stidham, Bo Nix and Zach Wilson fighting for the starting job. We’ll see how that pans out, but they aren’t going to go on the road and win in Baltimore. WIN.

Week 10 vs. Cincinnati Bengals

The Bengals will come to Baltimore in week 10 for yet another primetime game as the two division foes will square off on Thursday Night Football. The Ravens will get the win on the road in this matchup, and they will defend home turf as well. WIN.

Week 11 at Pittsburgh Steelers

Another division game for the Ravens in week 11 as they will hit the road to take on the Steelers. Pittsburgh will have a new QB next season as Justin Fields and Russell Wilson will battle for the starting job. It doesn’t matter who wins that competition, they aren’t beating the Ravens. WIN.

Week 12 at Los Angeles Chargers

Baltimore has a lot of primetime games this season, and one of them will come in week 12 on the road against the Chargers. The battle of the Harbaugh brothers. Jim Harbaugh is now back in the NFL and coaching the Chargers, and he should have them playing good football this season. Not good enough to knock off his brother, however. WIN.

Week 13 vs. Philadelphia Eagles

This is going to be a terrific game. The Eagles are coming to town in week 13 and Jalen Hurts and Lamar Jackson will square off. This is going to be an exciting matchup, and the Ravens are going to get it done in a thriller. WIN.

Week 14 – BYE

Week 15 at New York Giants

Things should be easier for the Ravens in week 14 as they will be playing the Giants. New York was one of the worst teams in the league last year, and it would be surprising if that wasn’t once again the case this season. The Ravens will get a win in this one. WIN.

Week 16 vs. Pittsburgh Steelers

Round two against the Steelers will take place in week 16 in Baltimore. The Ravens are going to win this matchup in Pittsburgh, and they are going to take care of business in Baltimore as well to complete the season sweep. WIN.

Week 17 at Houston Texans

The Ravens will head to Houston for a Christmas Day clash with the Texans. CJ Stroud and the Texans are expected to be very good this season, and these two teams will meet with the whole NFL world watching. The Texans will get the home victory and avenge last year’s playoff loss. LOSS.

Week 18 vs. Cleveland Browns

Baltimore will be back at home for their regular season finale against the Browns, and they will end the year on a high note to finish off another impressive regular season. WIN.

Final Record: 13-4

The Ravens finished with a 13-4 regular season record last year, and this season should end up being similar.
