The Baltimore Ravens (8-5) are entering a crucial Week 15 matchup against the New York Giants (2-11) at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford. Coming off a bye, following a narrow 24-19 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, the Ravens are focused on regaining momentum as they push toward the playoffs.
The Giants, enduring a tumultuous season, have recently made significant changes due in large part to their limitless list of injuries. The Ravens will be going against the Giants' "B" team—the perfect environment for a trap game. Baltimore can't afford a loss to the G-Men. That would be unacceptable.
Here’s all the essential information about the announcers and officiating crew for this game.

Referee Crew for Ravens vs. Giants
- Referee: Brad Allen
- Umpire: Duane Heydt
- Down Judge: Sarah Thomas
- Line Judge: Walter Flowers
- Field Judge: Rick Patterson
- Side Judge: Chad Hill
- Back Judge: Tyree Walton
Brad Allen’s officiating crew is known for maintaining a balanced and efficient game flow, calling fewer penalties than most crews across the league. Their 2024 season average of 11 penalties and 78 yards per game reflects their preference for letting players decide the outcome, which could favor the Ravens’ disciplined style of play.
However, Allen’s team has consistently flagged false starts and offensive holding, areas where the Ravens’ offensive line will need to stay sharp, especially when facing the Giants’ defensive pressure led by Brian Burns and Kayvon Thibodeaux.

The Ravens will look to avenge their Week 6, 2022 loss to the Giants, where a late-game rally led to a 24-20 defeat. Ironically, this matchup was the first loss Lamar Jackson suffered to an NFC opponent. Daniel Jones was the first NFC quarterback to beat Lamar. Crazy. Jones is no longer on the Giants, so Lamar and co. will be going up against backup QB Tommy DeVito.
