Of all the Baltimore Ravens’ positional strengths in 2014, offensive line was perhaps their greatest. And most underrated (as o-lines often are).

After a horrid 2013 performance, a pair of underrated moves and a return to health solidified this unit as one of the very best in the NFL, paving the way for both Joe Flacco and Justin Forsett’s finest statistical seasons.
