Who are the announcers and referees for Ravens vs. Bills today?

The Baltimore Ravens are set for a primetime showdown against the undefeated Buffalo Bills on Sunday Night Football in Week 4. Mike Tirico and Cris Collinsworth will be in the booth to call the action as the game airs on NBC, adding to the excitement of this marquee matchup.

The Bills come into the game at 3-0, fresh off a dominant 47-10 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars on Monday night. Meanwhile, the Ravens are riding high after a hard-fought 28-25 victory over the Dallas Cowboys, improving to 1-2 on the season. Despite their slow start, the Ravens remain strong contenders, making this game a must-watch.

Back at home for Week 4, the Ravens look to build on their first win of the season. Facing a red-hot Buffalo team led by quarterback Josh Allen, they’ll need to bring their A-game. While the Bills have impressed, Baltimore—led by QB Lamar Jackson—still has plenty of firepower and is eager to prove they belong in the AFC contender conversation.

This game will be a true test for head coach John Harbaugh as the Ravens aim to even their record and leave their early-season struggles behind. The primetime spotlight offers the perfect opportunity to remind the league that Baltimore is still a team to be reckoned with.

Fans can expect a thrilling battle under the bright lights of M&T Bank Stadium, with the Ravens suited up for their ‘Darkness Falls’ game theme, ready to light up the night.
