2. The Ravens Are Getting Healthy At The Right Time

Joe Flacco will make his only preseason showing on Saturday against the Lions. Flacco has spent most of training camp waiting for his key teammates to get off the PUP list. Terrell Suggs, Steve Smith Sr. and Elvis Dumervil are all ready to get going.

Heck, Breshad Perriman is even off the PUP list. We now know that at the very least, he exists. All jokes aside, the Ravens roster is looking pretty healthy right now. The one big concern is the health of John Urschel. If he is hurt the Ravens offensive line will feel the pain right along with him.

The Ravens are going to get their key players back to start the regular season. They’re going to look like a completely different team. Special players make a special impact. When these special players are not in the line up, it makes a horribly big impact.
