The Baltimore Ravens finished first in the AFC North last season, becoming one of the more unlikely teams to make the playoffs.
However, getting back there is going to be a tough challenge considering that the formerly down-and-out Cleveland Browns are poised to make a run for the division crown. The Ravens will also have to deal with the Pittsburgh Steelers and Cincinnati Bengals in hopes of getting back to the playoffs.
Things are a little bit easier for Baltimore in some respects. The team doesn’t have a quarterback controversy now that Lamar Jackson is solidified as the starter. The team also added running back Mark Ingram in the offseason to become the starter at that position.
The Ravens added Earl Thomas to the secondary that already includes Marlon Humphrey, Tony Jefferson, and Jimmy Smith.
Baltimore’s 2019 season kicks off against the Miami Dolphins on Sept. 8.
Read below for more about the Ravens heading into the upcoming season.
