The Baltimore Ravens are a professional American football team located in Baltimore, Maryland. They play in the National Football League (NFL) as part of the American Football Conference (AFC) North division. The Ravens play their home games at M&T Bank Stadium and have their main offices in Owings Mills, Maryland.
The Baltimore Ravens team started in 1996. This happened after Art Modell, who owned the Cleveland Browns, decided to move his team from Cleveland to Baltimore in 1995. As part of a deal between the league and Cleveland, Modell had to leave the Browns' name, colors, and history in Cleveland. A new team would start there in 1999. In return, Modell could bring his players and staff to Baltimore to form a new expansion team. Steve Bisciotti became the main owner of the Ravens in 2004. In 2023, the team was worth $4.63 billion, making it one of the most valuable sports teams in the world.
The Ravens have been very successful since they started. They have one of the best winning records among active NFL teams. They also have a great record in playoff games. The team has made it to the NFL playoffs 16 times since 2000. They have won two Super Bowl titles (Super Bowl XXXV and Super Bowl XLVII). They also won two AFC Championship titles in 2000 and 2012. The Ravens have appeared in five AFC Championship games and won eight AFC North division titles. They are one of only two teams to win multiple Super Bowls without losing any. Ozzie Newsome was the general manager from 1996 until 2018. The team has had three head coaches: Ted Marchibroda, Brian Billick, and John Harbaugh since 2008. The Ravens are known for their strong defense, especially since their amazing performance in the 2000 season. Famous former players like Ray Lewis, Ed Reed, and Jonathan Ogden are in the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

Team History
How the Ravens Got Their Name
The name "Ravens" was chosen because of Edgar Allan Poe's famous poem The Raven. Fans voted for the name in a contest. Poe lived in Baltimore for some time and is buried there, so the name honors him. People also liked that it connected to Baltimore's other bird team, the Baltimore Orioles. Poe even had distant relatives who played football for Princeton Tigers a long time ago.
Before the NFL team, there was a wheelchair basketball team in Baltimore also called the Ravens. It was started in 1972 by Ralph Smith. The football team later bought the rights to the name. The wheelchair team then became known as the Maryland Ravens.
Bringing Football Back to Baltimore
After the Colts moved to Indianapolis in 1984, Baltimore tried hard to get another NFL team. In 1993, Baltimore was a top choice for a new team. However, the city was passed over for Charlotte, North Carolina and Jacksonville, Florida. Many people in Baltimore were upset, feeling that league officials were working against them.
By 1994, Baltimore Orioles owner Peter Angelos tried to buy a team that wanted to move. He looked at the Los Angeles Rams, but they ended up moving to St. Louis. Angelos also tried to bring the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to Baltimore, but that didn't work either.
Finally, the city looked at the Cleveland Browns. Their owner, Art Modell, was having money problems and disagreements with Cleveland about their stadium.
Football Returns to Baltimore
On November 6, 1995, Art Modell announced he would move the Browns to Baltimore. Baltimore had offered money for a new stadium and yearly support. This caused a big argument. On February 8, 1996, Cleveland and the NFL made a deal. Cleveland would get a new NFL team by 1999. The Browns' name, colors, and history would stay in Cleveland. Modell's team in Baltimore would be a new expansion team, but they could keep their current players.

After the move, Modell hired Ted Marchibroda as the first head coach for the new Baltimore team. Marchibroda had coached the Baltimore Colts before. Ozzie Newsome, a former Browns player, joined the team as director of football operations. He later became the general manager.
For their first two seasons, the Ravens played at Memorial Stadium, which used to be home to the Colts and Orioles. In 1998, the Ravens moved into their new stadium, now called M&T Bank Stadium, right next to Camden Yards.
The Early Years (1996–1998)
In the 1996 NFL draft, the Ravens picked two future Hall of Famers: offensive tackle Jonathan Ogden and linebacker Ray Lewis. Both played their entire careers for the Ravens.

The 1996 Ravens won their first game but finished the season with a 4–12 record. In 1997, they started 3–1. Rookie defender Peter Boulware had 11.5 sacks and was named AFC Defensive Rookie of the Year. The team finished 6–9–1. On December 14, 1997, the Ravens played the last professional sports event at Memorial Stadium, winning 21–19 against the Tennessee Oilers.
1998 was the first year in the new stadium, then called "PSINet Stadium." Quarterback Vinny Testaverde left, and Jim Harbaugh and Eric Zeier took over. Running back Priest Holmes had his first 1,000-yard season. The Ravens finished 6–10. They beat the Colts 38–31 when the Colts returned to Baltimore for the first time in 15 years.
The Brian Billick Era (1999–2007)
After three losing seasons, Brian Billick became the head coach in 1999. Quarterback Tony Banks had his best season, and receiver Qadry Ismail gained over 1,000 yards. The team started 4–7 but finished 8–8.
Because of money problems, the NFL told Art Modell to sell part of the team. On March 27, 2000, Steve Bisciotti bought 49% of the Ravens. In 2004, he bought the rest of the team from Art Modell.
2000: Super Bowl XXXV Champions
In 2000, Tony Banks and Trent Dilfer shared quarterback duties. Rookie Jamal Lewis rushed for 1,364 yards. But the team's defense was the real star. Ray Lewis was named Defensive Player of the Year. The Ravens started 5–1 but then struggled, going five games without scoring an offensive touchdown. They then won their last seven games, finishing 12–4 and making the playoffs for the first time.
The 2000 Ravens defense set an NFL record by allowing only 165 points all season. This record still stands, and many consider them one of the greatest NFL defenses ever.
Since the Tennessee Titans won their division, the Ravens played in the wild card round. They beat the Denver Broncos 21–3. In the next game, they beat the Titans 24–10. A blocked field goal returned for a touchdown and a Ray Lewis interception helped them win. This sent the Ravens to the AFC Championship against the Oakland Raiders. The Ravens won easily, 16–3, after Shannon Sharpe's long touchdown catch and an injury to the Raiders' quarterback.

Baltimore then played the New York Giants in Super Bowl XXXV in Tampa. The Ravens' defense led them to victory. They had four sacks and forced five turnovers. One was a Kerry Collins interception returned for a touchdown by Duane Starks. The Giants' only score was a kickoff return for a touchdown, but Jermaine Lewis immediately returned the next kickoff for a touchdown for the Ravens. The Ravens won 34–7 and became champions.
2001–2007 Seasons
In 2001, the Ravens tried to win another Super Bowl with Elvis Grbac as quarterback. However, an injury to Jamal Lewis and poor offense hurt the team. They finished 10–6 and made the playoffs as a wild card. They beat the Miami Dolphins 20–3 in the first round. But in the next game, three interceptions by Grbac led to a 27–10 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers, ending their season.
The Ravens faced salary cap issues in 2002 and had to let go of some key players. They drafted Ed Reed, who became one of the best safeties in NFL history. Despite low expectations, they finished 7–9.

In 2003, the Ravens drafted quarterback Kyle Boller. He was injured, and Anthony Wright took over. Jamal Lewis rushed for an amazing 2,066 yards, including a then-NFL record 295 yards in one game. Baltimore won their first AFC North division title with a 10–6 record. In the playoffs, they lost a close game 20–17 to the Tennessee Titans. Ray Lewis was named Defensive Player of the Year for the second time.
The Ravens missed the playoffs in 2004, finishing 9–7. Ed Reed won the NFL Defensive Player of the Year award. They were the only team to beat the 15–1 Pittsburgh Steelers that season. In 2005, they signed receiver Derrick Mason and drafted Mark Clayton, but finished 6–10.

The 2006 season started great, with the team winning their first four games. They finished with a franchise-best 13–3 record, winning the AFC North and getting a first-round bye in the playoffs. They faced the Indianapolis Colts in the second round. It was a tough defensive game, with both teams only scoring field goals. The Colts won 15–6, ending Baltimore's season.

In 2007, injuries and poor play led to a disappointing 5–11 record. Head coach Brian Billick was fired after the season. John Harbaugh, who was the special teams coach for the Philadelphia Eagles, became the new head coach.
The John Harbaugh and Joe Flacco Era (2008–2018)
New Coach and Quarterback (2008)
With a new head coach (John Harbaugh) and a rookie quarterback (Joe Flacco), the Ravens had an uncertain start in 2008. But they surprised everyone, winning eleven games and earning a wild card spot in the playoffs. They beat the Dolphins 27–9 in the wild card game. Six days later, they beat the Titans 13–10 to reach the AFC Championship Game. They lost to the Steelers 23–14, just missing out on Super Bowl XLIII.
Playoff Runs (2009–2011)

In 2009, the Ravens had an up-and-down season, finishing 9–7 and getting another wild card spot. They crushed the Patriots 33–14 in the playoffs but then lost to the Colts 20–3.
In 2010, Baltimore finished 12–4, earning another wild card spot. They beat the Chiefs 30–7 in the playoffs but again lost to the Steelers in a close game, 31–24.

The 2011 season started with a huge 35–7 win over their rivals, the Steelers. The Ravens finished 12–4, winning the AFC North title. They made it to the AFC Championship game against the Patriots. In a very close game, the Ravens had a chance to win with a touchdown pass and a field goal, but both attempts failed. They lost 23–20, and the Patriots went to the Super Bowl.
Ray Lewis' Final Season and Second Super Bowl Win (2012)
The 2012 season began with some changes for the Ravens. They won the AFC North with a 10–6 record and made the playoffs. In the wild card game, they beat the Indianapolis Colts 24–9 in Ray Lewis's final home game. Then, they traveled to Denver and won an amazing 38–35 double-overtime game against the top-seeded Broncos. They then won their second AFC Championship by beating the Patriots 28–13.
The Ravens played the San Francisco 49ers in Super Bowl XLVII. Baltimore built a big 28–6 lead early in the third quarter. Then, a partial power outage in the stadium stopped the game for 34 minutes. After the game restarted, San Francisco scored quickly, making it 28–23. The 49ers kept trying to catch up. With the Ravens leading 34–29 late in the game, the 49ers got close to the goal line but couldn't score. The Ravens then took an intentional safety to run out the clock and win the game. Quarterback Joe Flacco was named Super Bowl MVP.
Later Seasons (2013–2018)
After winning the Super Bowl, the 2013 season was the first without Ray Lewis. The Ravens finished 8–8 and missed the playoffs for the first time since 2007.
In 2014, the Ravens had some challenges. Running back Ray Rice's contract was terminated due to an incident. The team finished 10–6 and made the playoffs. They beat the Steelers 30–17 in the wild card round. In the next game, they lost a close one to the New England Patriots 35–31, ending their season.
The 2015 season was the team's 20th. Many key players, including Joe Flacco and Terrell Suggs, suffered injuries. This led to the team's first losing season in the Harbaugh-Flacco era, finishing 5–11. The 2016 Ravens finished 8–8 and missed the playoffs for the second year in a row. In 2017, they finished 9–7 but missed the playoffs for a third straight year.
The Lamar Jackson Era (2018–Present)
The Ravens drafted quarterback Lamar Jackson in 2018. After a 4–5 start, Jackson became the starting quarterback in Week 11 when Joe Flacco was injured. The team won six of their next seven games, finishing 10–6 and winning the AFC North. This was their first playoff appearance since 2014. They lost to the Los Angeles Chargers in the Wild Card round. Jackson became the youngest quarterback to start a playoff game. After the season, Ozzie Newsome retired as general manager, and Eric DeCosta took over.
On March 13, 2019, the Ravens traded Joe Flacco to the Denver Broncos. That season, Lamar Jackson led the Ravens to a franchise-best 14–2 record, including a 12-game winning streak. They secured home-field advantage for the playoffs for the first time. Jackson became only the second player in NFL history to rush for over 1,000 yards as a quarterback. He also broke Michael Vick's record for most rushing yards by a quarterback in a single season. Thirteen Ravens players were chosen for the 2019 Pro Bowl, tying an NFL record.
The Ravens finished the 2019 regular season with the most rushing yards by any team in NFL history. They were also the first team to average at least 200 passing yards and 200 rushing yards per game in the same season.
Despite being the top seed in the playoffs, the Ravens lost to the Tennessee Titans 28–12 in the Divisional Round. Lamar Jackson was voted AP NFL MVP by everyone, becoming only the second player to do so.
In 2020, the Ravens finished 11–5, taking second place in the AFC North and earning a Wild Card playoff spot. They led the NFL in rushing yards for the second year in a row. They beat the Titans 20–13 in the Wild Card round but lost to the Buffalo Bills 17–3 in the Divisional Round.
In 2021, the Ravens set an NFL record for consecutive preseason wins with 20. In Week 3, Justin Tucker kicked the longest field goal in NFL history, 66 yards, to win the game against the Detroit Lions. The team started 8–3 but ended the season with a six-game losing streak, finishing 8–9 and missing the playoffs. Jackson was injured and did not play in the final games. In 2022, the Ravens finished 10–7 and lost to the Cincinnati Bengals 24–17 in the Wild Card Round.
In 2023, the Ravens finished 13–4, winning the AFC North and earning the top seed in the AFC playoffs. They defeated the Houston Texans 34–10 in the Divisional Round but lost to the Kansas City Chiefs 17–10 in the AFC Championship.
Before the 2024 season, the Ravens added star running back Derrick Henry. In the 2024 season, the Ravens finished 12–5 and won the AFC North title. They beat the Steelers 28–14 in the Wild Card Round but lost to the Bills 27–25 in the Divisional Round.
Team Rivalries
Divisional Rivals
Pittsburgh Steelers
The Pittsburgh Steelers are the Ravens' biggest rival. The two cities are less than a 5-hour drive apart. Both teams are known for their tough, physical style of play. They play twice a year in the AFC North and have met five times in the playoffs. Pittsburgh leads the overall series 33–25, and 3–2 in playoff games. Games between these two teams are usually very close. This rivalry is considered one of the most intense in the NFL today.
Cincinnati Bengals
The Ravens' rivalry with the Cincinnati Bengals started when the original Browns team moved to Baltimore. The rivalry grew stronger when former Ravens defensive coordinator Marvin Lewis became the Bengals' head coach. The Ravens lead the all-time series 32–27 as of the 2024 season. The Bengals won their only playoff meeting in 2022.
Cleveland Browns
The Browns–Ravens rivalry began when the Cleveland Browns team started playing again in 1999. The original Browns had moved to Baltimore and became the Ravens. This rivalry was mostly focused on former Browns owner Art Modell, who moved the team. Most Ravens fans see it as just another division game. The Ravens have won most of these games, leading the series 37–15 as of the end of the 2024 season. The two teams have not met in the playoffs.
Conference Rivals
New England Patriots
The Ravens first played the New England Patriots in 1996. The rivalry really heated up in 2007 when the Ravens lost a close game to the Patriots. It grew more intense in 2009 with a confrontation between Patriots quarterback Tom Brady and Ravens linebacker Terrell Suggs.
As of the 2023 season, the Patriots lead the overall series 11–5. The teams have split their four playoff games, 2–2. The Ravens won in the 2009 Wild Card Round and the 2012 AFC Championship game. The Patriots won the 2011 AFC Championship Game and the 2014 Divisional Round.
Tennessee Titans
The rivalry between the Ravens and Tennessee Titans became more noticeable in the late 2010s, but it actually started in the early 2000s when both teams were in the AFC Central division. Their games were often tough and intense. The Ravens gave the Titans their first loss at their new stadium in 2000 and eliminated them from the playoffs that year. Fans and experts have noticed that games between these teams are often heated. In their five playoff matchups, the visiting team has won every time. As of the 2023 season, the Ravens lead the all-time series 14–13.
In-State Rivalry
Beltway Bowl: Washington Commanders
Even though they only play every four years, the Ravens have a small local rivalry with the Washington Commanders. Their stadium is about 40 miles away. The Commanders had tried for a long time to stop an NFL team from returning to Baltimore after the Colts moved in 1984. The two teams play each other every year during the preseason. As of August 2024, the Ravens lead the series 4–3.
Team Uniforms
The Ravens' uniform design has mostly stayed the same since 1996. The team's colors (purple, black, and metallic gold) were inspired by the Northwestern Wildcats. Helmets are black with purple "talon" stripes. Players usually wear purple jerseys at home and white jerseys on the road.
In 1996, the team wore black pants with a white stripe. In 1997, they switched to white pants with purple and black stripes. The all-white uniform (white jerseys with white pants) was worn in Super Bowl XXXV.
Since 2002, the Ravens often wear white jerseys for their home opener if it's an early game. Since 2008, they also wear white jerseys for preseason home games.
In 2004, the team introduced an alternate uniform with black jerseys and solid black pants. This "Pitch Black" uniform was first worn in a home game against the Cleveland Browns, which the Ravens won. It's often worn for important games or national TV broadcasts.
The Ravens started wearing black pants with their white jerseys again in 2008. They also introduced a new combination of black jerseys with white pants. Since 2010, the Ravens have worn their black jerseys at least twice each season.
On December 20, 2015, the team surprisingly wore gold pants for the first time with their purple jerseys. Many fans did not like them, comparing them to the rival Steelers' pants.
The NFL introduced "Color Rush" uniforms in 2015, where teams wear one color from head to toe for certain primetime games. The Ravens wore their all-purple Color Rush uniforms in 2016 and 2017 for Thursday Night games, winning both times. Starting in 2024, the Ravens began wearing alternate purple helmets with a new front-facing Ravens logo with their Color Rush uniforms, calling them "Purple Rising" uniforms.
On September 13, 2018, the Ravens debuted white jerseys with purple pants. On October 21, they paired the new purple pants with their regular purple uniforms. For the final game of the 2018 season, they wore black uniforms with purple pants. This combination was also worn in 2021.
Marching Band
The team's marching band is called Baltimore's Marching Ravens. They started as the Colts' marching band in 1947 and have been playing ever since. They helped campaign to bring football back to Baltimore after the Colts left. Because they stayed in Baltimore, the band is nicknamed "the band that would not die." The Washington Commanders are the only other NFL team with a marching band.

First Round Draft Picks
The Ravens' first draft was in 1996. They picked Jonathan Ogden fourth overall and Ray Lewis 24th overall. Both players won a Super Bowl with the team and are in the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

In other years (2004, 2010, 2012), they had none. Two of their first-round picks have made at least ten Pro Bowls.
