Baltimore Ravens

With Flowers sidelined Saturday, Ravens wide receivers combined for just seven catches for 82 yards and a touchdown against Pittsburgh in the wild-card round.

The Bills suffered their worst loss all season in Baltimore in Week 4. Now the Ravens will see them again in the playoffs Sunday night.

The five-time defending AFC East champion Bills advanced to the divisional round for a fifth straight postseason.

“We’re just the Ravens system,” John Harbaugh said. “What’s the best offense that we can put together for our players at this time?”

Playing without injured receiver Zay Flowers, the Ravens’ won the day with their rushing attack. They racked up 299 yards, including a 13-play touchdown drive that featured nothing but rushes.

The Ravens gave up 6 passing plays of 20 yards or more Saturday. They'd give up only 11 total in their previous 7 games.

Jackson has never been better, more complete and less mistake-prone in the playoffs than in a 28-14 win over the Steelers on Saturday. At 28, he's maturing, even if his critics stick to the same tired arguments.

The interruption marked the third time since the 2023 season that a Ravens game at M&T Bank Stadium has been interrupted by drone activity.

Lamar Jackson, Derrick Henry and Baltimore’s offensive line bulldozed Pittsburgh in the wild-card round.

The Ravens struggled in the third quarter but came away with a convincing win.

Derrick Henry ran for 186 yards and two touchdowns, and Lamar Jackson threw two TD passes in 28-14 win.

On probably the last night for Mother’s to draw a mass of people draped in purple, Baltimoreans poured into the beloved Federal Hill grille about three hours before the Ravens faced off against the Steelers.

Jackson became the first quarterback in NFL history with at least 4,000 passing yards and 800 rushing yards in a single season.

Brandon Stephens, Daniel Faalele and Justin Tucker are among the Ravens with something to prove this postseason. But, in the 4-0 stretch leading into the wild-card matchup with the Steelers, all three have shown signs they can be counted on Saturday night.

The Ravens are 9.5-point favorites over Pittsburgh, according to DraftKings, but Saturday's game won't be easy.

The Ravens will face the Pittsburgh Steelers for the third time this season. Here are game predictions from The Baltimore Banner’s sports staff.

With Ricard on the field, Henry rushed for 1,324 yards and 15 scores this season. "He deserves all of the recognition,” Henry said.

Flowers, the team’s top receiver, was injured in the first half of the Ravens’ Week 18 game against the Cleveland Browns.

They don't fully understand him, but they appreciate their QB. Coach Tee Martin compares Jackson to rapper Lil Wayne: ‘They’re just ahead of their time at what they do.’

If Baltimore hands Pittsburgh its fifth consecutive loss Saturday, Mike Tomlin and company may need to reevaluate their roster, starting at quarterback.
