The Ravens open up their season at home against the Houston Texans. This game will have a lot of eyes on it for a week one matchup, as rookie quarterback C.J. Stroud, who was selected by the Texans with the second overall selection is expected to get the start in what will be his first official NFL game.
The Ravens open up their AFC North schedule on the road against the Cincinnati Bengals in week two.
The Ravens travel to London for the second time in team history to take on the Tennessee Titans in week six. It will be an early 9:30 A.M. start for the game on the east coast, but hopefully the Ravens can play better across the pond then they did in 2017 when they were steamrolled by the Jacksonville Jaguars by a final of 44-7.
The Ravens chose not to opt to use their bye, a choice given to teams that travel to London. Meaning the Ravens return to Baltimore in week seven to take on the Detroit Lions. The Ravens have a week 13 bye, later then most but a way to get healthy for a long January playoff push.
The Ravens have four primetime games including a week 16 Monday Night matchup against the San Francisco 49ers. The Ravens will travel to San Francisco as the two sides will square off Christmas night. This will be the third time and the first time since 2016 that the Ravens have had a Christmas Day game.
The other three primetime games include a home Thursday night game against the Bengals in week 11, followed by a week 12 visit the the Chargers on Sunday night. The Ravens then travel to Jacksonville to take on the Jaguars in week 15 for a Sunday night matchup.
Finally the Ravens finish off the 2023 regular season at home against long time rival the Pittsburgh Steelers that could have strong playoff implications.
The Ravens have the 21st easiest schedule based on 2022 opponent records. Last season the Ravens traveled the least out of any team in the NFL however in 2023 the Ravens will travel a total of 25,442 miles, sixth most in the NFL for 2023.
Stay tuned for a 2023 record prediction next week!
