Visão geral da equipe
The Ravens are looking to bounce back after a stunning 8-9 finish in 2025 that ended their playoff streak and cost John Harbaugh his job. New head coach Jesse Minter inherits a roster still built around MVP quarterback Lamar Jackson, workhorse back Derrick Henry, and top target Zay Flowers, with pass rusher Trey Hendrickson added in free agency to fix a defense that struggled to get to the quarterback last season.
With better health and a fresh coaching voice, Baltimore enters 2026 as the betting market’s pick to reclaim the AFC North, even after a disappointing year that ended a run of near-annual division titles.
Análise da linha ofensiva
Baltimore overhauled the interior of its line this offseason, pairing returning tackles Ronnie Stanley and Roger Rosengarten with new guards John Simpson and first-round rookie Olaivavega Ioane, while veterans Ethan Pocic and Danny Pinter compete to replace three-time Pro Bowl center Tyler Linderbaum. It’s a unit built to fix a group that ranked among the league’s worst in pass protection a year ago, and its success will lean heavily on Stanley’s health and how quickly the new pieces gel up front.
Análise da Linha Defensiva
The Ravens added premier pass rusher Trey Hendrickson to a front that finished 31st in sacks per pass attempt last season, giving him the chance to line up alongside safety Kyle Hamilton, linebacker Roquan Smith, and cornerback Marlon Humphrey. If Hendrickson can stay healthy after an injury-riddled 2025, he gives Baltimore the kind of edge presence that was sorely missing from a defense that too often let opposing quarterbacks off the hook.
2026 NFL Season
Semana 1
Ravens at Indianapolis Colts | Sunday, September 13 | 1:00 PM ET | Lucas Oil Stadium, Indianapolis, IN
Baltimore opens as a road favorite, priced at -185 on the moneyline against Indianapolis’s +154, with the total set at 49.5 points. The Colts gave the Ravens all they could handle a season ago behind a resurgent Daniel Jones, but Jones is still working back from a torn Achilles, muddying Indy’s quarterback picture heading into the opener.
A motivated Jackson against a Colts team still sorting out its starting quarterback is a favorable spot for Baltimore to open strong and set an early tone for the division race.
Chances de ganhar a divisão e o Super Bowl
Probabilidades de ganhar na AFC North: -115
Chances de ganhar o Super Bowl: +1100
Previsões
Registro geral: A projeção é que os Ravens terminem com um recorde de 11-6, dado seu forte elenco e vantagem competitiva na divisão.
Chances de playoff: Among the safest bets in the conference to return to the postseason
Chances do Super Bowl: A legitimate contender, though not the outright favorite
Baltimore has the talent and quarterback play to be the class of the division again, but last year’s disappointment is a reminder that health and execution matter as much as star power. Expect the Ravens to be the team to beat in the AFC North, with a real chance to make a deep playoff run if Jackson and the offensive line hold up.
