The 2019 Baltimore Ravens 2019 schedule was released Wednesday April 17th, and we already have a lot of great match-ups to look forward to.

In case you missed it: Here is a link to the Baltimore Ravens 2019 schedule.

Now that you’ve taken a look, I fairly assume you’ve realized just how difficult this schedule looks. While the Baltimore Ravens strength of schedule is only .469 (tied for 19th among all teams), Baltimore will face five teams who appeared in the 2018 post-season, including both of the Super Bowl LIII contenders, the New England Patriots and the Los Angeles Rams.

Meanwhile, the Ravens still must face the new-and-improved Cleveland Browns and Pittsburgh Steelers twice a year. To make the AFC North division even more highly competitive, Baltimore faces the Browns, Steelers, and Cincinnati Bengals in three-straight games spanning from week four to week six.

No doubt, the Ravens are in for a hell of a fight. But if it makes you feel, better Baltimore will also play each of the three teams selecting in the top three picks of the 2019 NFL Draft (Arizona Cardinals, San Francisco 49ers, New York Jets). In fact, the Ravens will play the Cardinals and the Miami Dolphins in the teams first two games of 2019. Starting the season off 2-0 would be extremely positive for a Baltimore Ravens squad that got decimated this off-season.

With all of top-tier competitors the Ravens will face in 2019, they were definitely gifted some easy games to lighten the schedule.

Headed into the 2019 regular season, before the 2019 NFL Draft (let alone the entire off-season), four games standout as must-watch television, even to non-Ravens fans. The four games we’re about to go over could wind up being some of the best 2019 has to offer, and could easily be prime-time match-ups or maybe flexed into a spot. Which games am I referring to? Let’s take a peak…
