Schedule comes out Wed. May 12th, 8pm. Always look forward to that night, see how they lay it out, see who the prime time games are, see who the last three or four games are against with playoff spots on the line.
Ravens face at home: Steelers, Browns, Bengals, Chiefs, Colts, Chargers, Vikings, Packers, Rams
Ravens travel to: Steelers, Browns, Bengals, Raiders, Broncos, Bears, Lions, Dolphins.
Ravens have alternated home/road week 1 each year since 2011. Trend keeps up , they'll open on the road. O's have a home game on Sun. Sept 12 as well. Thinking @Bengals or @Dolphins.
4 primetime games seems like a given. 3 AFC games. 1 NFC game.
I think Ravens vs. Browns on SNF is likely, may have been the game of the year in 2020.
I think Ravens vs. Chiefs on Thanksgiving night (NBC Broadcast as SNF) is in play.
I think Ravens @ Bengals on MNF is likely. Bengals on the rise, no Steelers rivalry game in primetime 2020.
I think Ravens @ Bears on TNF is in play.
@Raiders, @Broncos will be 4pm start times (unless in prime time). Could see the Packers being a 4pm home game start time (unless that gets a prime time slot).
Having both the LA teams coming here for 1pm starts would give us a slight advantage in those games.
Not Ravens related, but the Bucs don't have the Chiefs, or Packers on the schedule this year. But they have the Patriots (on the road though). Would the NFL go Bucs on the road, Brady going back to Foxboro in the Thursday night opener? Or would they have Bucs at home to raise the banner against maybe the AFC runner-up Bills? Either way it's a lock that Bucs at Pats is an NBC game.
