Buffalo Bills (home)

The Bills will visit M&T Bank Stadium, the place where Josh Allen made his NFL debut as a rookie in 2018. The Ravens dominated Buffalo that day, 47-3, but Allen is a far different quarterback four years later and has become one the NFL's most dynamic players. He last beat the Ravens in Buffalo in the 2020 divisional playoffs. The Bills are one of the AFC's most complete teams and present one of the biggest challenges on Baltimore's 2022 schedule.

Cincinnati Bengals (home and away)

The young and talented Bengals are the team to beat in the AFC after winning the North and going on an impressive playoff run. Their explosive offense led by Joe Burrow and Ja'Marr Chase scored 41 points twice against Baltimore last season. Burrow threw for 525 yards in their second meeting. All-Pro cornerback Marlon Humphrey said he couldn't wait to play Cincinnati next season. The Bengals will be motivated to get back to the Super Bowl, but they'll also have a target on their backs as the defending conference champs.

Pittsburgh Steelers (home and away)

With Ben Roethlisberger out and rookie quarterback Kenny Pickett in, the Ravens-Steelers rivalry will have a different feel in 2022. But their matchups should still be pivotal in the AFC North. Pittsburgh's legacy of great defensive players is being upheld by T.J. Watt, the NFL Defensive Player of the Year who tied the all-time single-season record with 22.5 sacks. The Steelers have a four-game winning streak over Baltimore and have never had a losing season in 15 years under Head Coach Mike Tomlin.

New England Patriots (away)

Baltimore will renew acquaintances with outside linebacker Matthew Judon, the former Raven who took his Pro Bowl game to another level (12.5 sacks) with New England. Mac Jones had a solid rookie season as a starting quarterback, helping the Patriots get back to the playoffs. Head Coach Bill Belichick has won at least 10 games in all but one season since 2003, and any Patriots-Ravens game has potential playoff implications.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers (away)

Tom Brady retired, then un-retired to put the future Hall of Famer back on the Ravens' schedule. The Buccaneers are just a year removed from winning the Super Bowl and are built to make a run at it again. It will be Brady's second career meeting against Lamar Jackson, who won the first.

Cleveland Browns (home and away)

The Browns made a huge splash in free agency by trading for quarterback Deshaun Watson. They still have one of the NFL's most talented rosters on both sides of the ball. On defense, they're led by All-Pro defensive end Myles Garrett. Baltimore's last three games against Cleveland have been decided by six points or fewer, and the Ravens-Browns matchups in 2022 figure to be just as competitive.

Miami Dolphins (home)

Mike McDaniel is Miami's new head coach and wide receiver Tyreek Hill is his new toy. McDaniel hopes to maximize the talents of quarterback Tua Tagovailoa, the fifth overall pick in 2020 who has yet to play with consistency. Miami loaded up in free agency to make a run at the AFC East title.

New Orleans Saints (away)

Dennis Allen is the new head coach in New Orleans after Sean Payton stepped away following a successful 16-year run. As the Saints' defensive coordinator the past seven seasons, Allen is very familiar with the Saints' personnel and he has previous experience as a head coach with the Raiders. Lamar Jackson has never started a game at quarterback against the Saints, so it will be interesting to see what Allen schemes up when he faces Baltimore.

Denver Broncos (home)

The Broncos made a big-time trade for veteran quarterback Russell Wilson with the hope of quickly turning their team around. They also have a new head coach in Nathanial Hackett, Green Bay's former offensive coordinator. The Broncos have gone from last place in the AFC West in 2021 to a AFC title contender entering this season.

Atlanta Falcons (home)

The Falcons are rebuilding after trading Matt Ryan to the Colts this offseason. Atlanta has had four consecutive losing seasons and now will go with Marcus Mariota at quarterback and a room of talented playmakers around him.

New York Giants (away)

New Giants Head Coach Brian Daboll knows something about the Ravens as a former offensive coordinator with the Bills (2018-21) and former assistant coach with the Patriots. The Giants hope Daboll will maximize the ability of two key Giants weapons – quarterback Daniel Jones and running back Saquon Barkley. The Giants have suffered five-straight losing seasons and hope that Daboll can lead them back to prominence.

Jacksonville Jaguars (away)

Doug Pederson, who won a Super Bowl as head coach of the Philadelphia Eagles, has taken over in Jacksonville after Urban Meyer failed to survive his first season as head coach. The Jaguars are building around quarterback Trevor Lawrence, the first-overall pick in 2021 who should benefit from Pederson's experience as a playcaller and quarterback teacher. The Jaguars were the league's biggest spender in free agency and will be looking for immediate improved results.

New York Jets (away)

The Jets had a 4-13 record in 2021, but former Ravens inside linebacker C.J. Mosley had a bounce back year, leading the team with 168 tackles. The Jets are rebuilding but hope to have a better season under second year Head Coach Robert Salah. Mosley hasn't faced the Ravens since leaving them in free agency following the 2018 season. If he's healthy and with the Jets when they host Baltimore next season, he'll be amped up to face his former team.

Carolina Panthers (home)

Head Coach Matt Rhule enters this season as a coach under pressure after winning just five games in each of his first two seasons in Carolina. Sam Darnold struggled in his first season as Carolina's starting quarterback and star running back Christian McCaffrey has only played 10 games the past two seasons.
