Since moving from Cleveland in 1996, the Baltimore Ravens have established themselves as the epitome of smash mouth football. Built on a fierce defense and a punishing running game, the Ravens are always a feared opponent. The Baltimore Ravens captured the Super Bowl in 2001 and have been a top team ever since. However, a barrage of injuries in 2007 led to a 5-11 season and a new coaching staff.
After the retirement of Steve McNair, the Baltimore Ravens drafted QB Joe Flacco in the first round. RB Willis McGahee pounds the opposition with help from the powerful offensive line. TE Todd Heap moves the chains as a significant pass-catching threat. The hybrid defense of the Ravens has been their trademark for a decade. D-lineman Haloti Ngata soaks up blockers so that future Hall of Fame MLB Ray Lewis can destroy ball carriers. DE/OLB Terrell Suggs is a pass rushing force, with the ballhawk S Ed Reed leading a veteran secondary.
First-year head coach John Harbaugh has his sights set on winning a stacked AFC North, but the rebounding Cincinnati Bengals and the surging Cleveland Browns will stand in the way.

The elite of the NFL are scheduled to face the Baltimore Ravens in non division-play, including the Dallas Cowboys, Indianapolis Colts, and the Jacksonville Jaguars.
