Baltimore Ravens: 5 Must-Win Games in 2017
Week 12 vs. Houston Texans
Monday Night Football is back in Baltimore. The Ravens will take on the Houston Texans in what will be their first home MNF game since 2012. After a season ending back surgery, the Ravens will have a difficult task in taming J.J. Watt, who will look to wreak havoc on an ailing Ravens offensive line. In their last contest in Week 16 in 2014, the Ravens were fortunate to hold Watt to only one sack thanks to the solid play of Ricky Wagner, his former Wisconsin teammate. Without Wagner, it won’t be nearly as easy to do the same.
Still, this is a favorable match-up the Ravens must capitalize on if they fail to win against tougher opponents earlier on such as the Oakland Raiders, Tennessee Titans or Green Bay Packers. Speaking from fan’s perspective, who wouldn’t love a prime time victory?
