The Baltimore Ravens were a surprising underachiever in 2025, bringing an end to the John Harbaugh era. Despite the full changeover with the coaching staff, however, most of the roster remains intact, leading to a whole lot more reason than usual to believe in a team that is starting anew at head coach. So long as you've got roster loaded with high-end talent like Lamar Jackson, Derrick Henry and Kyle Hamilton, you've got a chance. Robert Mays, Derrik Klassen and Dave Helman preview the 2026 Ravens on this episode of The Athletic Football Show.
