Baltimore Ravens Receive Favorable Travel Schedule, Face Nine Playoff Teams in 2025 NFL Season

The Baltimore Ravens enter the 2025 NFL season as strong Super Bowl contenders with a talented roster led by Lamar Jackson and Derrick Henry, who recently signed a historic two-year deal. They face a challenging schedule, ranked around the 9th to 21st toughest in the league depending on the source, including nine games against playoff-caliber teams and divisional rivals they must beat twice. Despite this tough slate, the Ravens benefit from one of the lightest travel schedules in the NFL, traveling just 10,647 miles, which aids in player rest and recovery compared to AFC North rivals. Key offseason moves include re-signing left tackle Ronnie Stanley and adding veterans DeAndre Hopkins and Chidobe Awuzie, plus 11 draft picks with promising rookies like safety Malaki Starks. Baltimore will face teams from the NFC North, AFC East, and last season's division winners from the AFC South, AFC West, and NFC West. The combination of a complete roster, favorable travel logistics, and a competitive schedule sets the stage for Baltimore to finally overcome their 12-year Super Bowl drought.
