Baltimore Ravens’ Schedule 2024-2025: Dates, Times, TV Channels, Strength of Schedule, and More

The Baltimore Ravens were one of the best teams in the NFL last season. The No. 1 seed in the AFC fell short of their ultimate goal, losing to the Kansas City Chiefs in the AFC Championship Game. However, entering the 2024 season, they’re poised to be a top contender with a real chance to compete for the Lombardi Trophy.

Let’s take a look at the Ravens’ schedule for the 2024 NFL season, where their strength of schedule (SOS) ranks, our record prediction, examine their prime-time games and preview Baltimore’s biggest matchups of the season.

Baltimore Ravens’ Schedule and Opponents

The complete 2024 NFL schedule was released on May 15 at 8 p.m. ET. The Ravens’ schedule is below in this table, which is best viewed in landscape mode.

Ravens’ Strength of Schedule

The Ravens have a challenging schedule in 2024. They have nine away games compared to eight home matchups, and Baltimore has the ninth-hardest (or 24th-easiest) schedule in the NFL in 2024, according to PFN’s in-house metric.

With matchups against the Cowboys and Eagles in the NFC, coupled with AFC battles against defending-champion Chiefs and up-and-coming Texans, the Ravens will get all they can handle with their schedule this season.

Ravens’ Record Prediction: 12-5

The Ravens are a really good team that fell just short of a Super Bowl appearance last season. Now, Lamar Jackson and Co. should be locked into making another playoff run and advancing even further in 2024.

While Baltimore remains one of the most talented teams in the NFL, it wouldn’t be surprising to see them finish with a worse record this season due to a much harder schedule. Nevertheless, they should be expected to be right in the thick of things to make a run at a Lombardi Trophy.

“We gon’ be back better than ever.”

The team made some key additions over the offseason, most notably signing RB Derrick Henry and drafting CB Nate Wiggins, OT Roger Rosengarten, EDGE Adisa Isaac and WR Devontez Walker among others.

Prime-Time Games

• Week 1: Ravens at Chiefs, 8:20 p.m. ET (TNF)
• Week 4. Bills at Ravens 8:20 p.m. ET (SNF)
• Week 7: Ravens at Buccaneers, 8:15 p.m. ET (MNF)
• Week 10: Bengals at Ravens, 8: 15 p.m. ET (TNF)
• Week 12: Ravens at Chargers, 8:15 p.m. ET (MNF)

Baltimore has five prime-time games in 2024, which is up from four prime-time games in 2023. Coming off of a 13-win season with the reigning NFL MVP — plus some notable additions this offseason — it makes sense that we’ll be seeing the Ravens on prime-time quite a bit. Which matchups would make sense in a prime-time slot?

When Is Baltimore on Bye?

The Ravens have one of the latest bye weeks in the NFL, as their bye week will be in Week 15. They’ll have two weeks to prepare for their Week 16 matchup against the Giants.

Biggest Matchups of the Year

Looking at their schedule and seeing some of the quality opponents they have on their slate, one sticks out above the rest: a tough road test against the Chiefs to open the season. After Kansas City ended Baltimore’s season a year ago, this is about as big of a game as the NFL will see in 2024 between two AFC heavyweights.

The emotion in that game will be high, and the Ravens will surely want to come into Arrowhead proving they are the superior team against an opponent that is coming off two consecutive Super Bowl victories.

Baltimore will also face a number of contenders such as the Eagles, Bengals, and Texans.

Even though it won’t be in prime time, there will also be interest in the Commanders matchup, as it will be the first time Jackson faces No. 2 overall pick Jayden Daniels, who has drawn comparisons to Jackson.
