The Baltimore Ravens bad luck is getting hard to ignore. Two season ending injuries happened in non contact practices:
The Baltimore Ravens have lost Tavon Young and Dennis Pitta for the 2017 season in the past two days. It makes you wonder who stepped under a ladder, broke a mirror and saw a black cat while holding an open umbrella in “The Castle,” in Owings Mills. The Ravens bad luck seems to be following them like a dark cloud and it isn’t all that new of a thing. It started in 2013.
In 2012, the Ravens won the Super Bowl. It took a “Mile High Miracle” to get past the Denver Broncos. You remember, it was the 70 yard touchdown bomb to Jacoby Jones to force overtime. It almost seems like Joe Flacco and Jones used up all the Ravens good luck in one play. The Ravens went on to win the Super Bowl, but the bad luck started to hit the franchise hard.
Injuries have been a real problem for the Ravens. It’s one of the factors you can’t control in football. One thing you will see, is that the bad luck really likes to hit the Ravens at the tight end position.
