The Baltimore Ravens are the most unstoppable preseason team in NFL history.
Baltimore took down the Tennessee Titans 23-10 on Thursday night (despite some impressive plays from Malik Willis) in Week 1 of preseason action.
That extends the Ravens’ preseason winning streak to 21 games. Yes, 21 straight preseason wins. They last lost a preseason game in September 2015!
It’s the longest preseason winning streak in the NFL since at least 1995, and it tops the 19-game streak from Vince Lombardi’s Green Bay Packers in 1959-62.
As meaningless as it is (and as little as it means for NFL regular-season success; see, the 2008 Detroit Lions that went 4-0 in preseason and 0-16 in the regular season), it’s still a pretty mind-blowing feat. There’s so much randomness that goes into preseason games with backups and off-the-street players involved that they all seem rather coin-flippy on paper, even if one roster is much more talented than the other. Head coach John Harbaugh clearly gets his squad to take these games seriously.
The Ravens — who went 8-9 in the 2021 regular season — will look to extend their preseason winning streak to 22 games when they have a road game at the Arizona Cardinals next Sunday.
Here’s a look at how the NFL world is reacting to Baltimore extending its crazy preseason winning streak:
