After 20 years together... there’s nothing we can’t tackle. Trusted medical team of the Ravens. And you.
QUOTH THE RAVEN
“It’s going to be a hostile environment; make no mistake about that. Those guys are going to come in [ready], and we know what’s on the line; it’s the division title. Each and every team in the division wants to win a division, so you’re willing to put everything on the line for that. Personally, I’m ready to go out on my shield, and I know a lot of the guys in the locker room feel the same exact way. Check your manhood, do your job, [and if we] do that, we’ll win the game.”
ILB Roquan Smith
In a massive AFC North showdown with division title implications, the Baltimore Ravens (9-5) host the Pittsburgh Steelers (10-4) today from M&T Bank Stadium. Seeking their thirdstraight postseason berth, Baltimore is one game behind Pittsburgh, which clinched a playoff spot last Sunday.
Today’s game marks the second of three that both the Ravens and Steelers will play in 11 days, as each team will also play on Christmas in just four days (Baltimore is at Houston, while Pittsburgh hosts Kansas City).
These two rivals last met in Week 11, when the Steelers emerged with an 18-16 win at Acrisure Stadium. The Ravens seek to end a four-game skid vs. Pittsburgh, last winning in 2022.
NUMBERS TO NOTE
8 – Receiving TDs by TE Mark Andrews this season, tying George Kittle for the NFL’s most among all TEs. Last Sunday, Andrews scored the 48th TD of his career, marking the most total TDs by any player in franchise history.
No. 1 – QB Lamar Jackson’s league-best 120.7 passer rating currently ranks as the fourth-best single-season mark in NFL history. Here are the Top 3: 1. Aaron Rodgers (122.5 in 2011), 2. Aaron Rodgers (121.5 in 2020) & 3. Peyton Manning (121.1 in 2004).
In his 17th season at Baltimore’s helm, Harbaugh stands as the NFL’s secondlongest-tenured coach (Mike Tomlin – 18). He has led the Ravens to 11 playoff berths and produced a 181-114 overall record (including playoffs), also winning Super Bowl XLVII.
Led by two-time MVP QB Lamar Jackson, Baltimore boasts the NFL’s No. 1 offense (424.1 ypg) and is No. 3 in scoring (29.9 ppg). Jackson has excelled both passing (3,580 yards, 34 TDs & 3 INTs for an NFL-best 120.7 rating) and rushing (743 yards & 3 TDs).
Baltimore’s No. 2-ranked rush attack (178.4 ypg) is fueled by RB Derrick Henry, who owns the NFL’s second-most ground yards (1,474). Henry has registered NFL bests in total TDs (15, tied w/ Ja’Marr Chase), including 13 rushing scores (tied for second).
The Ravens’ defense ranks No. 1 vs. the run (80.7 ypg
27 – Of the last 33 RavensSteelers games, 27 have been onescore affairs, including the past nine contests.
70 – “Big plays” (gains of 20+ yards) by Baltimore’s offense this season, ranking No. 1 in the NFL. (The Ravens have produced 21 such rushes and 49 such passes.)
74.1 – Red zone TD percentage by Baltimore’s offense, which ranks No. 1 in the NFL this season. The Ravens have scored 40 TDs on 54 RZ drives.
109 – Rushing yards needed by QB Lamar Jackson (6,001) to surpass Michael Vick (6,109) for the most QB rushing yards in NFL history.

RB Justice Hill
MESSAGE TO THE TEAM REGARDING THE SIGNIFICANCE
“I always talk to the guys about the big picture. We talk briefly about the big picture, then we always come back to 1-0. Where do we start? 1-0. That’s our focus. Here is the big picture: The big picture is this is our opportunity to win the division, and we have to win this game to have an opportunity to win the division, and then do everything we can do to be 1-0 and put our best foot forward.”

MARK ANDREWS: ONE TEAM GOAL ALWAYS IN MIND
By Alex Brady
Upon entering his seventh NFL season in 2024, Ravens star tight end Mark Andrews was already considered one of the greatest ever to don the purple and black.
Despite suffering a fractured ankle that forced him to miss the final six games of the 2023 campaign, Andrews still produced his sixth-consecutive season with at least 500 receiving yards, while also posting five or more receiving touchdowns for the fifth-straight year. Both of those marks stood tied for the most such seasons in franchise history. But with Andrews, he’s constantly looking for more.
“I’m always trying and striving to be better,” Andrews states.
“My main goal is to help this team win games, and whatever they ask me to do, I’m going to do that, and it’s just going to continue to get better and better, and that’s my goal.”
A third-round draft choice out of Oklahoma in 2018, Andrews has been a consummate pro since the moment he first stepped into the Ravens Under Armour Performance Center. Bringing a focused and driven mentality to each workout, practice and game, he quickly caught on as a household name in Charm City.
the team’s facility and fans alike knew early on that Andrews was destined to have a boundless impact on the Flock for years to come.
Fast forward to the 2024 season, Andrews has remained a key cog in the Ravens’ offense, while his name is etched throughout the franchise’s record books. Currently ranking third all time
Nobody has been more complimentary or trusting of Andrews as a top target than two-time MVP quarterback Lamar Jackson, as the duo has hooked up for 41 touchdowns and over 4,200 yards since being drafted together in 2018.
“In the end zone, the red zone, down the field, on the sideline making catches, just all around, he has a great feel for the game, and he makes my job a lot easier,” Jackson affirms. “I could say a lot about Mark and what he does for this game, but he’s just a great all-around tight end.”
A Pro Bowler in just his second season, the Arizona native tallied a career-best 10 receiving touchdowns in 2019, tied for the second most by any player that year, while becoming only the third Raven to record double-digit receiving scores in a season. Thus, those within
in receptions (426) and receiving yards (5,371), he notably passed Ravens Ring of Honor member Todd Heap for the club record for receiving touchdowns earlier this season. Standing at 48 career receiving scores, a number that continues to grow, Andrews also passed running back Jamal Lewis for the most total touchdowns in franchise history –firmly reaching mythic status amongst Ravens legends.
As the seasons have progressed, the records have only continued to climb for the exceptional tight end. Following last week’s clash with the Giants, Andrews secured another 500-yard receiving season after already surpassing five receiving touchdowns earlier in the year. With these marks, he reached exclusive levels of prestige as the Ravens’ all-time leader in total seasons in both categories – a true definition of consistency.
While there’s certainly still more season to play and further team records to be broken in the future, statistical feats are the furthest thing from Andrews’ mind. His priority from Day One – no matter how many individual accomplishments he secures – remains locked on one particular team goal.
“We’re all fighting for that final goal,” Andrews admits. “And I’m extremely motivated. I’ve got a lot of football left in me.”
“WE’RE ALL FIGHTING FOR THAT FINAL GOAL.”
— MARK ANDREWS
