NBC: Ravens have best Sunday Night Football winning percentage
NBC: Ravens have best Sunday Night Football winning percentage
Just a little over 24 hours remain until the NFL makes the 2025 schedule public. When the upcoming season slate is released, Baltimore Ravens fans should hope to see as many Sunday Night Football matchups as possible.
That's because they have the top SNF winning percentage in the entire league, as indicated by NBC Sports in the tweet below:
The Baltimore Ravens have shown up big time on SNF entering the 20th anniversary season. 🔥

Yes, over the past twenty years that NBC (a company that is never shy about sending promos out) has had the Sunday night package of games, the Ravens have won a whopping two-thirds of their appearances. Their winning percentage is .072 points higher than that of the next closest team, the Green Bay Packers.
Why do the Ravens do so well on Sunday nights? Hard to say for sure, but maybe they get fired up when they hear Carrie Underwood (and prior to 2013, Faith Hill) sing "Waiting All Day for Sunday Night."
By the way, if you have found that song to be ambiguously familiar, and you don't know why, it's because this tune is a cover. The SNF on NBC theme song is a reworked version of Joan Jett's "I Hate Myself for Loving You."
If the Ravens are scheduled for more Sunday nights this season, perhaps that will help them achieve their goal of playing in that one special Sunday night game in February.
