Ravens Schedule: 2025-26 NFL Season
Lamar Jackson missed a few games with an injury but returned in Week 9, leading the Ravens to a victory and earning AFC Offensive Player of the Week honors. With Jackson back under center, optimism returned in Baltimore, but it quickly faded after a devastating loss to the Bengals in Week 13.
Ravens 2025 Schedule
After Baltimore’s challenging early stretch, the tough work continues as the Ravens face 11 teams this season that finished above .500 in 2024. One of the biggest games came in Week 13, when they hosted AFC North rival the Cincinnati Bengals for a Thursday Night Football clash on Thanksgiving. That loss has significantly hurt their playoff chances.

Key Contributors Toward Ravens Playoff Chances
QB Lamar Jackson didn’t secure his third league MVP, but the dual-threat quarterback remains the engine of the Ravens’ offense. Adding to the steady run game, veteran RB Derrick Henry now leads the backfield. Henry is currently +25000 to win the 2025 NFL Offensive Player of the Year Award, even with long shot odds, he has still been a big part of the offense. Right behind him, RB Justice Hill has carved out a key role as a change-of-pace back, contributing both on the ground and through the air.
As expected, WR Rashod Bateman took a massive step forward last season and is now a central piece of Baltimore’s passing attack. His impact complements playmakers like Zay Flowers and Mark Andrews. The Ravens also boast one of the league’s best backup tight ends in Isaiah Likely.
Defensively, Baltimore struggled through the first half of the 2024 season but transformed into one of the league’s top units in the second half. However, the Ravens have continued to struggle in the first half of this season but have significantly improved since then. Even rookie Malaki Starks is among the favorites to win Defensive Rookie of the Year.
Where Can I Bet on the Ravens to Make the Playoffs?
You can bet on the Ravens to make the playoffs (and other NFL markets) with any of the licensed Maryland sports betting apps. The availability of these markets may fluctuate throughout the offseason, but during the season, you will find them on every site.
For those wanting to place bets in person, you can bet on the Ravens' odds to make the playoffs and more at retail sportsbooks located in Maryland as well.
Looking Ahead: Ravens Playoff Picture
Sitting in first place in the division, the Ravens are considered strong playoff contenders, boasting top-tier talent and solid betting value. MVP QB Lamar Jackson returns after a 4,100+ passing yard, 45-TD campaign in 2024. He’s joined by Derrick Henry, who rushed for over 1,900 yards and 16 touchdowns in his Baltimore debut. Offensive weapons Zay Flowers, Rashod Bateman, and Mark Andrews all return after career-best seasons.
On defense, Baltimore returns a stout front led by Roquan Smith and Nnamdi Madubuike, who combined for more than 20 sacks and anchored one of the league’s best run defenses. The additions of Alexander and rookie Malaki Starks aim to fix a secondary that ranked near the bottom in pass defense last season. With improved coverage and a steady pass rush, Baltimore’s defense could be a difference-maker in a deep playoff run.
Do the Ravens Have a Chance to Make the Playoffs?
The Ravens are playoff contenders, currently listed at -125 to make the postseason. Having reached the playoffs in each of the last three seasons, another deep run looks likely. Even if Baltimore doesn’t win the division title, they remain one of the top teams expected to secure a wild-card spot, but the recent loss to the Bengals has put their chances in jeopardy.
Are the Ravens out of the Playoffs?
Not at all, the Baltimore Ravens are far from out of playoff contention. With the season in Week 13, Baltimore is expected to be a contender once again. Their odds to miss the playoffs sit at +330, reflecting a 23.3% chance of falling short.
Where Do the Ravens Rank in the AFC North?
Baltimore holds the best odds to win the AFC North a -175. The division is shaping up to be highly competitive once again. The Steelers added veteran Aaron Rodgers, bringing experience and stability to their offense and currently have the second-best odds to take the AFC North. The Browns could emerge as a dangerous underdog with a new quarterback and improved defense. Meanwhile, the Bengals have taken a step back with Joe Burrow on IR. However, Burrow is back after returning for the Thanksgiving game.
Beyond the tough divisional competition, the Ravens also face a challenging schedule in 2025.
Where Do the Ravens Rank in the AFC Playoff Standings?
The Ravens won the AFC North last season and are expected to repeat as division champs in 2025, having the best odds in the division. The Ravens Super Bowl odds are currently +2000. The AFC is proving far from a walk in the park. To remain among the conference’s elite, the Ravens will need to stay sharp for the remainder of the season. Their losses to the Bills in Week 1 and to the Chiefs in Week 4 could end up carrying extra weight down the stretch.
Who to Root for if You’re a Ravens Fan
Outside of rooting for the Ravens, you should always root against divisional foes. So I would root for any team that plays against the Cleveland Browns, Cincinnati Bengals, or Pittsburgh Steelers. Baltimore fans tend to also root for most teams playing the Buffalo Bills and Kansas City Chiefs, as these two have proven to be still competition in the AFC.
Ravens Postseason Outlook and Predictions
The Ravens clinched a playoff spot early last season but fell to the Bills in the Divisional Round, leaving fans to wonder if Lamar Jackson can finally deliver a deep postseason run.
At mid-season, Baltimore has struggled with consistency on both sides of the ball. But after winning five in a row, the Ravens are hoping to carry that momentum into the last stretch of the season.
