Two six-game gauntlets highlight make-or-break stretches on the Ravens' 2025 schedule
Two six-game gauntlets highlight make-or-break stretches on the Ravens' 2025 schedule Two stretches may tell the Ravens' tale during the 2025-26 season. It's the Baltimore Ravens' time. This is the year. It's time to right some of the wrongs of recent memory. Two seasons ago, the dream of Super Bowl glory ended during the AFC Championship Game. Last year was supposed to be the revenge tour. It wasn't. January marked a step in the wrong direction. Baltimore didn't even reach the doorstep of raising the Lamar Hunt Trophy. They lost to the Buffalo Bills in the Divisional Round, so this offseason was all about soul-searching. The defense is young and finished in the top ten last season, but it should be even better now that they've added safety Malaki Starks and edge rusher Mike Green through the most recent NFL Draft. This team was built to win now. Never has this franchise fielded a more exciting gunslinger. The coach, John Harbaugh, is one of the game's most experienced. They've extended Derrick Henry. The schedule is favorable, and the social media team tapped into the hit series 'Severance' to introduce it. Now, we're having fun! Please make no mistake about it, though. This team will be all business all season long. Maintain focus and seal the deal. That's the goal. Two six-game stretches may put the Ravens in a prime position to make a serious title run. The NFL schedule makers did the Ravens a solid. They will travel the third-fewest miles during the 2025-26 season. They'll undoubtedly be well-rested by the time the postseason arrives. Baltimore is a legitimate contender, but they will get everyone's best shot all season. Keep an eye on two important stretches of action, two mini-gauntlets that may determine postseason seeding. Week 1 - Week 6 What a way to start the campaign, huh? Baltimore's first six games include road games versus the two teams in the most recent AFC Championship Game. They get feisty Texans and Rams teams. Fortunately, Baltimore will play those games at home. Who knows what the Browns will look like? Heck... Who in the world knows who their quarterback will be? Circle the third game of the season, one vs. the Lions. They were the NFC's top-seeded team despite not winning a playoff game. Baltimore lost its first two games of the season in 2024. It will want to get off to a faster start to avoid having to play catch-up in the race for home-field advantage during the postseason. Week 13 - Week 18 The Ravens' first six games were followed by a bye. The home stretch presents challenges. They won't see two of their AFC North rivals until Week 13. A pair of matchups against the Bengals sandwich a home date against the Steelers. It seems the Steelers are doing all they can to hand Baltimore the divisional crown. The same can be said about 'the Bungles,' but both are worthy opponents. It doesn't get more intense than AFC North football unless one throws in a road game against the Green Bay Packers. Watch the home game against the Patriots four days before Christmas. Though the Ravens are the better team, that one has the words 'trap game' written all over it.

Taylor Swift thanks Brittany Mahomes for keeping her calm during intense Chiefs AFC title win
Taylor Swift and Brittany Mahomes were all smiles on Sunday night as they joined their partners on the field to celebrate the Kansas City Chiefs' AFC Championship win over the Buffalo Bills. Photos showed Swift and Mahomes embracing on the field as they watched Travis Kelce and Patrick Mahomes accept the Lamar Hunt Trophy and talk about the possibility of making history with a potential third consecutive Super Bowl championship. A video also showed what Swift told Mahomes on the field as confetti fell onto GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium. "Oh my God, you kept me so calm the last couple weeks," the pop star said, which was captured by The Kansas City Star on TikTok. Mahomes had a little more experience in handling the high-pressure moments that the Chiefs have dealt with over the last few years. The Associated Press noted that Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes has trailed in the fourth quarter in nine playoff games and has won the game in six of those times. He forced overtime in two others before losing. Swift got to witness firsthand just how wild Chiefs games could get when they won against the San Francisco 49ers in Super Bowl LVII. "I did not know what to do, and I told Brittany, 'Tell me it's gonna be OK,'" she told Donna Kelce on the field. In the end, it was. The Chiefs drove up the field to deliver the go-ahead field goal from Harrison Butker. Their defense was able to do enough to stymie Josh Allen and the Bills' offense in the closing seconds to hold on for the win.
